Toronto Maple Leafs
The previous two matches were unsuccessful for Craig Berube’s team. First, the Maple Leaves lost to St. Louis (2:4), and then failed to cope with Minnesota (1:2 OT). At the time of writing the forecast, the Canadian club is in seventh place in the Eastern Conference table. He played 13 matches in the regular season and scored 14 points. Goalkeeper Anthony Stolarz saves 91.9% of shots with a safety factor of 2.38. Toronto has a very weak power play. The team converted just 10% of its attempts, 31st in the league. At the same time, the Leafs have no problems playing at the point (3rd in the NHL in terms of faceoffs won).
Boston Bruins
Goalkeeper Jeremy Swaman signed a multi-year, multimillion-dollar contract before the start of the season. True, so far the goalkeeper is not playing as expected of him in Boston. 89.5% of saved shots with a safety factor of 3.16 and one clean sheet. The Bears, like their opponents, play poorly on the power play – 14.8% of converted attempts (26th in the league). Yes, not everything is fine in the minority – 17th result in the NHL. In the last match, Boston beat Seattle (2:0), and before that they defeated Philadelphia (3:0). Thus, Jim Montgomery’s team does not concede for two matches. It currently ranks eighth in the Eastern Conference.
Statistics and numbers:
- Toronto is the favorite for the upcoming match according to bookmakers.
- Boston won three victories in five previous head-to-head meetings.
- The last game ended with a score of 4:3 OT in favor of the Bears.
- Boston had beaten its opponent four times in its previous five games in Toronto.
Forecast
Toronto had never scored more than three goals in its previous five home games against Boston. I think it will be the same this time. It seems to me that the final victory will go to the Boston hockey players.
