Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Boston Bruins To Win (+172)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
The Boston Bruins come into this game with a solid track record, winning five of their last ten matches. They have a nice mix of left and right shooters, which helps keep opponents guessing. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild have struggled lately, winning only three out of their last ten games. That puts them in a tough spot, especially against a team like Boston.
Playing at the Grand Casino Arena, the Wild will have the home crowd behind them, but that alone might not be enough. The Bruins are seen as the underdog here, but they have a real chance to take this one. Just remember, the Wild could surprise us, especially since they are at home.
Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Boston Bruins +0.5 2nd Period Puck Line (-143)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
At the Grand Casino Arena, the Boston Bruins come in with a solid recent record, winning 5 of their last 10 games. They have a good mix of left and right shooters, which can help them find scoring opportunities. On the other hand, the Minnesota Wild have only managed to win 3 of their last 10, showing some struggles lately.
Betting on the Bruins to win the second period seems smart because they have shown they can keep up the momentum. However, Minnesota is at home and can be tough to beat in their own arena. With both teams having ups and downs, there's a risk that the Wild might step up their game. Overall, the Bruins have a good chance to take this one.
Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Boston Bruins +1.5 Puck Line (-147)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
The Boston Bruins have been playing well lately, winning 5 of their last 10 games. They are facing the Minnesota Wild, who have struggled with just 3 wins in their last 10. Playing at the Grand Casino Arena might give the Wild some support, but the Bruins have shown they can compete strongly, even on the road.
Taking the Bruins with a +1.5 bet seems like a smart move because they have a good chance to either win or keep the game close. One risk is that the Wild might rally at home, but overall, the Bruins' recent form makes them a solid pick here.
Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Kirill Kaprizov Under 3.5 Shots on Goal (-120)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
The bet on Kirill Kaprizov having under 3.5 shots on goal offers a good chance given how he's been performing lately. The Minnesota Wild have only won 3 of their last 10 games, which suggests they might struggle to generate offense. On the other hand, the Boston Bruins have been doing better, winning 5 of their last 10. This could mean less time for Kaprizov to take shots.
A key risk here is that the matchup is very close, and both teams are figuring things out in this new season. With 58 of the Wild players shooting left, and 56 of the Bruins doing the same, the battle for shots could get tight. So, while the odds are balanced, it's still a tricky bet.
Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Quinn Hughes Under 0.5 Assists (+145)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
For this bet to hit, Quinn Hughes needs to end the game with no assists. Looking at the matchup, the Minnesota Wild have struggled lately, winning only 3 out of their last 10 games. With their recent form, it's possible Hughes might not get the chances he needs to rack up assists against a solid Boston Bruins team that has won 5 of their last 10.
The Bruins are known for their tough defense, which could limit Hughes' opportunities. Plus, the pressure of playing at home might not help the Wild's scoring chances either. While Hughes has a shot at getting an assist, the odds are in favor of him staying under 0.5 assists tonight.
Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins: Hampus Lindholm Over 3.5 Shots on Goal (+1300)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Hampus Lindholm has been getting a decent number of shots lately, and the Boston Bruins are looking strong with five wins in their last ten games. With the Wild struggling a bit, winning only three of their last ten, the Bruins might push the pace. Lindholm has a chance to take advantage of that and get over 3.5 shots on goal.
One thing to consider is that both teams have plenty of players who shoot from the left side, which might make it tougher for him to find open space. Still, at these odds, it's worth a shot to see if Lindholm can capitalize on the chances during the game at Grand Casino Arena.
