Boston vs Minnesota Prediction
Last time out, Boston visited the Chicago Blackhawks and left with a 2-1 overtime win. This game was a defensive battle that saw the Bruins win the game with a Matt Grzelcyk goal early in overtime. Grzelcyk and Patrice Bergeron netted the two Boston goals on the night. Linus Ullmark stopped 19 of the 20 shots he faced, and Boston killed off all three Chicago power plays.
Minnesota hosted the Nashville Predators and were smoked, losing 6-2. The game was tied at two midways through the second period, but it was all Preds after that. Jordan Greenway and Matt Boldy both scored for the Wild. Kaapo Kahkonen stopped just 19 of the 23 shots he faced, and Minnesota killed off two of the three Nashville power plays.
