Los Angeles Kings

Los Angeles, not so long ago, along with other Californian collectives, were among the outsiders of the league. Still, the Kings were the first to achieve noticeable progress. Now, they are consistently in the playoffs, but they have not yet been able to get involved in the fight for the Stanley Cup. Last season, they lost to Edmonton in the first round in six games - 2:4. In the offseason, the club's management made several point reinforcements, among which the signing of Pierre-Luc Dubois stands out. The debut of the current regular season for the Black and White was unsuccessful. They lost to Colorado and Carolina - 2:5 and 5:6, respectively, but then beat Winnipeg - 5:1 and Minnesota - 7:3.

Boston Bruins

Under Jim Montgomery's leadership, Boston is turning into a real king of the regular championships. A year earlier, the Bears scored a record 135 points, which allowed them to win the President's Trophy with a huge gap from the nearest pursuer. Another thing is that already in the first round of the playoffs, they lost to Florida in seven games - 3:4. Despite this setback, the Black-and-Yellow started the current regular season very briskly. In the three opening games, they beat Chicago 3:1, Nashville 3:2, and San Jose 3:1 the day before.

Expert Betting Tips

Los Angeles, in recent years, has turned into a solid average NHLer, which, without much trouble, beats the league's middles and outsiders but, in battles with top-level opponents, often has problems. In the debut of the current season, we are convinced of this, as the Californians beat Minnesota and Winnipeg but failed to cope with Colorado and Carolina. Now the Kings face a battle with the formidable Boston, who are showing almost flawless results in the regular season for the second year and won three straight in the opening period of the current championship.

In the past regular season, Boston not only scored the most points but also conceded the fewest pucks, distinguished by excellent defense. In 82 games, they conceded only 177 times (2.16 average per game) - a phenomenally high-quality indicator. In the debut of the current season, the Bears are also playing exceptionally pragmatically, and that's why a total of only 13 goal takedowns (4.33 average per game) took place in the three games with their participation.
