Boston Bruins at Vancouver Canucks Picks & Betting Tips
Boston are backed to spoil the party as Vancouver are yet to lose under new head coach Bruce Boudreau after they beat the LA Kings 4-0 in his first game in charge.
Travis Green was let go by the Canucks on December 5th after starting the season with 8-15-2 and bottom of the Pacific division.
The win against the Kings was impressive but the Bruins are backed to be too much for the Canucks and for it to be a low scoring game in the process.
- Boston Bruins have a road record of 5-4-0
- Vancouver Canucks has a home record of 4-7-1
- The Canucks are 1-0-0 under Bruce Boudreau
- Boston Bruins are 5th in the Atlantic Division
- Vancouver Canucks are 8th in the Pacific Division
Head to Head
- Boston Bruins lead the series this season 1-0 after beating the Canucks 3-2 on November 29th
- The Bruins lead the all-time series 79 wins to the Canucks’ 37 wins
- They have tied on 15 occasions
Boston Bruins Form
Boston are looking to stake a claim for a wild card spot after an inconsistent start to the season. Boston are picking up wins here and there but need to be getting winning streaks if they want to get back to the Bruins team that was once feared.
Brad Marchand is where the goals will come from with him leading the Bruins in Goals, Assists and Points. The 33-year-old has played over 800 games and doesn’t show any sign of slowing down getting 24 points in 19 games this season.
Another threat for Boston is their captain Patrice Bergeron. He has 18 points this season and will be looking to hit 1000 overall points before he gives up the skates in years to come. He hasn’t been scoring like he had been but he’s helping the rest of his attack in Marchand and Pastrnak.
The Bruins have a 25.4% Powerplay Conversion rate which is the 6th highest in the league.
Jeremy Swayman has a goals against average is 2.26 and a save percentage of .918. He also has 1 shutout this season.
Vancouver Canucks Form
Vancouver are looking to kickstart their season after dismissing Jim Benning and Travis Green on the 5th of December after a 4-1 defeat at home to Pittsburgh. The Canucks have got off to the perfect start under Bruce Boudreau winning 4-0 at home against LA Kings.
In the game against the Kings, they had less shots on goal than their opponents so that shows they have got a bit of the clinical finishing they have been lacking at the stat of the season.
The main goalscorer this season for the Canucks is J.T Miller who also leads the team in points and powerplay goals. Miller is averaging just under a point a game and is looking to improve that record under the new boss.
The other main threat for Vancouver going forward is Quinn Hughes who is top of the assists chart for the Canucks and is the closest teammate that threatens knocking Miller from top of the points chart.
The Jets have a 51.5% Faceoff win rate which is the 10th highest in the league.
Thatcher Demko has a goal against average of 2.82 and a save percentage of .912. He also has 1 shutout this season.

Verdict
Vancouver are in the honeymoon period with their new GM and coach, but Boston are backed to crash the party and bring the Canucks back to the form they are used to this season.
Boston aren’t known for going forward and scoring lots of goals but they know how to defend and I expect the Bruins to do the same against Vancouver at the Roger Arena.
