Bruins vs Lightning Key Stats
Boston's offense is one of the strongest in the league as they have scored around four goals per game on average this season. David Pastrnak has led from the front along with Hampus Lindholm. Both have combined for over 45 goals and are very crucial for the team.
The defense has done great and has kept opposing attacks at bay, giving them fewer chances of scoring goals. Goaltender Linus Ullmark has been excellent whenever he has played, conceding less than two goals per game, and is one of the best players in the team.
Tampa Bay's offense has fared well with over 60 goals scored in 18 games, averaging over 3 goals per game this season. The partnership between Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point has done amazing work, with Nikita leading with 28 goal involvements.
Their defense has not been at its best, conceding 55 goals in 18 games. Goaltenders have done well individually with a save percentage of over 0.900 but have failed to make a positive impact due to their leaky defense and a lot of work left for them to do to get better results in the upcoming games.
Bruins vs Lightning Betting Prediction
Boston are 6-1 in their last 7 games against the Eastern Conference and have won four of their last five games after scoring five goals or more in their previous game.
Tampa Bay are 4-0 in their last four overall and have won 16 times in their last 22 meetings against Boston.
Both teams have played well, but Boston's offense gives them an advantage in this close game.
