Boston's defense is one of the best in the league with just 2.16 goals conceded per game. Goaltender Linus Ullmark has been fantastic, conceding just 1.86 goals per game this season and will look to improve further to make a great impact in the upcoming games.

Los Angeles' offense has been good this season with over 130 goals in their bag. Different players have contributed with over 10 goals each, with Gabriel in the lead position with 16 goals. The offense will play a key role in the next game.

Bruins vs Kings Betting Prediction

The game is likely to be interesting as two strong offenses will meet, but the difference in the defensive setup will be key here.

Boston, having a 38-14 record in their last 52 games, will be in a comfortable position, increased further by their good away record. However, the Kings have won five of their last six home games and have played well against teams with a high win rate.

With a better and more consistent display as a team, we can expect Los Angeles to play well in this encounter. Boston's low-scoring record further opens up a window for the home team, which they are likely to exploit for their benefit and cover the spread in this game.

Prediction: Take, Los Angeles, +1.5(-195)
