Boston Bruins vs Seattle Kraken Betting Picks

Boston is back on track. After losing six in a row, the Bruins have beaten Edmonton and Vancouver in their last two games. Boston's defense is much improved. The Bruins have given up two or fewer goals in nine of their last 10 games. They have allowed an average of 1.6 goals during their previous six games. The UNDER has cashed in three of Boston's last four games. Seattle has been playing better, too. The Kraken just beat the Flames, 5-1, at Calgary on Monday. However, Seattle is 1-16 in its past 17 games without rest, including 1-4 this season. The UNDER has cashed in six of Seattle's last eight games. The Bruins have the better goal differential on the season. Take the Bruins and the UNDER. 

Seattle's defense keeps them competitive, ranked 13th in goals given up (3.09 per game), 10th in save percentage (.903), and 12th in penalty killing. They're 3-3 on the road, including winning 8-2 at Montreal on this road trip. They've also won at Nashville (7-3) as a +160 underdog and a 5-4 upset at Minnesota as a +120 dog. Boston's defense has been a big disappointment ranked 25th in goals allowed, 24th in save percentage (.887), and 20th in penalty killing. The Bruins come home from a two-game trip after playing at Philadelphia yesterday. The offense is 23rd in goals scored (2.67 per game) and 24th on the power play. They've lost five of seven losing three times as a favorite. Play Seattle. 

The Boston Bruins are off a pair of road losses each by the score of 3-2. I look for them to come into this game in Seattle with a much better focus and sense of need. The Kraken have not been good on their home ice where they own a losing record this season at just 12-15. Boston will carry a winning road record into this one and I like this team coming off a pair of tough road losses. The Bruins will be playing here for just the third time, but they won them both. I am looking for a similar result here tonight, as the Bruins bring the "A" Game. Make the play on Boston.

The Boston Bruins have 73 points on the season and that is #1 in the Eastern Conference, and second overall to the Vancouver Canucks,but things haven't been so pretty for the Bruins of late. Boston is just 13-12 in their last 25 games and certainly looks more vulnerable than they have since prior to last season. The Kraken are on the opposite course as they are now 12-8 over their last 20 games. These teams have met four times in their history and Boston has not won any of them by more than a goal, and the Kraken own a 3-0 shutout in one of the games. Take Seattle.
