Anaheim has been the leading underdog in recent years. The Ducks began last year with a 13-game losing streak that dropped them to the bottom of the standing. With no global changes, they are not expected to contend this season. This start only confirms it. In the opening game, the club failed to Vegas 1-4, then unexpectedly beat Carolina 6-3, but in the next two meetings, they still lost to Dallas 2-3 and Arizona 1-2. Now, Anaheim is in the usual penultimate place in the Western Conference.

Boston has a completely different level of skill and ambition. In the last season, the Bruins set a record with 135 points, taking first place with a large gap to the nearest pursuer. Except that they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, but that's another story. In the off-season, the Blacks and Yellows lacked two of their legends: David Krejcí and Patrice Bergeron retired. Nevertheless, Montgomery's charges continued to score in the opening round. In four matches, they defeated Chicago 3-1, Nashville 3-2, San Jose 3-1, and Los Angeles 4-2 to move to the top of the Eastern Conference.

Boston proves that they dominate in the NHL. In the debut they so far have not missed a single point. Jim Montgomery's team has already won four games. They are not embarrassed even by the California tour, where they beat San Jose and Los Angeles - 3-1 and 4-2, respectively. In their last meeting at the Honda Center, the visitors earned two points, 7-1.

Boston spent the second season under Montgomery. The current results showed that the coach recreates a pragmatic style of hockey. In the first four games, the Bruins scored just 19 pucks (4.75 on average) while conceding just six (1.50 on average).
