Boston Bruins vs New York Rangers Prediction & Picks - NHL

Prediction published on 2/3/25, 10:11 PM  by Edgar Jibran | Modified on 2/5/25 at 5:12 AM in NHL Picks

Next Wednesday the NHL activity won’t stop, and one of the most attractive games in the schedule corresponds to the clash between New York Rangers and Boston Bruins, teams from the Eastern Conference that currently are far away from their own marks during the prior season. However, this will be a must-win for both teams as they’re momentarily out of the playoffs’ spots.

In this matter, it also must be noted that New York Rangers will be the most pressured team as they’re 6 points behind the playoffs’ spots line, so after breaking a streak of 3 losses in a row with their 4-2 victory over VGK Golden Knights put them as the big favorites to win this matchup. Nonetheless, they still negatively remark as the second worst offensive in the Metropolitan Division.

On Boston Bruins’ side, they’ve already surpassed the bitter taste of conceding 13 goals during their game against Winnipeg Jets and Buffalo Sabres after their 2 victories in a row over Minnesota Wild and NY Rangers. Despite that, they aren’t expected to emulate the 6-3 victory over the Rangers, as they couldn’t score more than 1 goal during their last 2 away games against teams from the Metropolitan Division.
