Two of the strongest offenses in the league
It is two of the strongest offenses that is about to battle in TD Garden this evening. Boston Bruins showed their offensive competence during the regular season and were one of the teams that created the most goal scoring chances with 33 shots on goal per game and only Edmonton Oilers scored more goals as Boston scored 3,67 goals per game. The Bruins has a strong roster, and especially in the offensive end with David Pastrnak in the lead –the Czech was noted for 113 points (61+52) during the eighty-two regular season games and was therefore placed as the third best point scorer in the league behind the Oilers duo Connor McDavid and Leon Draisatl. Besides Pastrnak, the Bruins possesses over players such as Brad Marchand, Tyler Bertuzzi, Taylor Hall and Pavel Zacha. The visiting Florida has, for its part, their strength offensively with a big number of goal scoring chances created and a big number of goals scored during the regular season. Panthers were the team that created the biggest number of goal scoring chances during the regular season with 36,8 shots on goal per game, and only five teams scored more goals during the regular season. Matt Tkachuk has been the team’s leading point scorer this season, and was noted for 109 points (40+69), and besides the Canadian forward, the Panthers possesses over offensive power in players such as Aleksander Barkov, Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Reinhart.

Conclusion and prediction
Based on the condition, which tells that there are two offensively strong teams that is going to battle, I think that this has possibilities to be an entertaining game. The Bruins goaltender Linus Ullmark is certainly the best in the league, and I think that he is the only one that can stop this game from being a high-scoring game. The two teams that are set to battle in TD Garden this evening has strong offenses and we are going to have players such as David Pastrnak and Matt Tkachuk on the ice and several more that can produce in the offensive way. The four games this teams have played against each other this season has ended up with loads of goals and, based on the conditions, I think we are going to have another entertaining and high scoring contest between the Bruins and the Panthers.
My betting tip for this game is therefore:
