The Boston Bruins head to Madison Square Garden on a six-game winning streak. Will the New York Rangers hand the Bruins their second loss of the year? Here's our picks for Thursday night's game between the Bruins and Rangers.
The Bruins are the hottest team in the NHL. Even with injuries, they've found a way to win in every game, including a hard-fought battle Tuesday night vs. the Pittsburgh Penguins to erase a three-goal deficit.
The Rangers, another Cup-contending team, seem to be still finding their footi ng as they wait for some key offensive contributors to break out. Still, led by Vezina winner Igor Shesterkin in goal and Mika Zibanejad and Artemi Panarin on offense, they'll look for their fourth win in a row.
Here are my NHL picks and predictions for Thursday night's game between the Bruins and Rangers (odds via FanDuel Sportsbook, BetMGM, and DraftKings Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5 scale).
