Blues: Struggling but Still Scoring
Alright, let’s get into this action between the Blues and the Bruins. The Blues are coming into this one on a four-game losing streak, looking to end it. The Bruins, on the other hand, are stuck in a win-one, lose-one pattern: win one, lose one, win one, lose one. They lost last time out, so if the pattern holds, you might expect a win here—but I’m not so sure about that.
Looking at the head-to-head between these two teams, yes, the Blues have been losing, but they’ve been scoring some goals—averaging just over two goals per game.
Bruins’ Trends and Key Totals
As for Boston, when they lose, they score about two goals per game, but when they win, they’re putting up at least three goals. Here’s an interesting stat: the Blues on the road, when the total is set at 5.5, are 8-0 to the over. That’s what we’ve got to go with here.
This is one of those early morning games, and I think we’ll see some goals. It should be Swayman getting the start for Boston and, for the Blues, probably Binnington—though nothing is confirmed goalie-wise as I’m shooting this video.
Final Pick: Bet the Over
What I do like is at least 3-3 to get us over this low total. So, the pick here is the over in this one on Saturday morning.
