Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction & Picks - NHL

 by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks

The third game of the series between Toronto Maple Leafs and Boston Bruins is going to be played next Wednesday, April 24th at 05:00 pm Central Time, a match that isn’t going to define anything yet, but is going to be a relevant step for the winner team to gain trust and to try to find a style for the rest of the playoffs, because as of today, both teams are still very irregular.

On the one hand, Toronto Maple Leafs was able to minimize their mistakes during the Game 2 of the series compared to Game 1, leaving only a few spaces for Boston and they avoid providing unnecessary powerplays. Even with that, they were forced to comeback because Boston managed very well to win the first period 2-1, but the mental strength of Toronto was key to win 2-3 and tie the series 1-1.

On the other hand, Boston Bruins showed during the first period to be the same effective team that was seen during Game 1, however, from that point they started committing several defensive errors during the second period that costed them losing their advantage when Toronto tied the match 2-2 in a powerplay. In this regard, Boston needs to return to the same strategy and effectiveness shown in Game 1, and to find a way to stop the dependence on Pastrnak when attacking.
