Florida Panthers vs Boston Bruins Odds, Line, Picks, and Prediction - October 17 | 2022 NHL Season

Florida Panthers v Boston Bruins
Florida Panthers v Boston Bruins

The Florida Panthers and Boston Bruins will face off against each other on Monday night at the TD Garden, showcasing two playoff clubs from the Eastern Conference in 2021–2022, both of whom are off to strong starts this season.

The Panthers enter the game with a 2-0 record and appear to be continuing their season of leading the NHL in points from the previous year. The Bruins have a 2-0 record despite some significant injuries and new coaching staff as they want to get off to a strong start despite the setbacks.



The Florida Panthers have started the season strong, going 2-0, suggesting that they have moved past their devastating second-round playoff exit from the previous season. The Panthers completed their early-season road journey up the northeast coast on Saturday with a 4-3 victory over Buffalo after a 3-1 victory over the New York Islanders on opening night.

Matthew Tkachuk, the Panthers' prized offseason acquisition, demonstrated his value against the Sabres with a second goal and an assist, in addition to several bone-crunching checks and altercations that ultimately resulted in a fighting penalty and made it abundantly clear that he had gotten under Buffalo's skin.

Jim Montgomery had a reputation as a defensive-minded coach when he took over the Bruins this offseason. The Bruins have scored 11 goals in the team's first two games, both victories. The Bruins defeated the Arizona Coyotes 6-3 on Saturday night to win their 19th straight game against Arizona.

The shorthanded Bruins won their second consecutive game with goals from AJ Greer and Derek Forbort in the third period to break the deadlock. The Bruins fired 43 shots at the goalkeeper during the contest, and Jeremy Swayman stopped 21 of them in his first start of the year.

Panthers vs Bruins Best Picks and Prediction

This is a respectable money line to wager on the Bruins in this contest. In the first two games, Boston did a great job of creating shots and looked strong even without Marchand.

The Panthers' shot attempts could be restricted by the Bruins, who went 2-1 in their three meetings with them last season. In game two, the Bruins played considerably more in line with Montgomery's style of play, limiting shots and skillfully moving the puck out of their end.

Boston will undoubtedly try to win battles in the corners and make wise decisions out of the zone, especially as they continue to play without No. 1 defenseman Charlie McAvoy, since Florida possesses playmakers and the capacity to score in bunches.

In the first two games, Ullmark was the Bruins' best goalie and would appreciate fewer clear looks at goal than he received against Washington. Don't ignore the possibility that the Panthers, who are in the final leg of a first-leg three-game road trip, may not be at their best.

Put a big money line on the Bruins.

Pick: Over 6.5 (-115)

Prediction: Bruins +115
