The Bruins and the Blues have had a thrilling series so far as the series is tied 1-1 heading back to Saint Louis. The Blues, though, had to battle back in the game and ended up wining the game in overtime. Now, the Bruins are a team that has to really perform on the road, which if the earlier games this playoff run has shown has been difficult for the Bruins as they did have some problems in Columbus.
Jordan Binnington definitely had a lighter night in the goal compared to the opening game of the series. However, Binnington was still not as good as Rask in the game as he saved only 91.3% of the shots he faced. Binnington was shot at 23 times and saved all but 2 of the shots.
Betting Trends for vs
The Blues were able to really amp up the offensive pressure on Rask in the last game and that led to him cracking under the pressure. The Blues defense managed to counter the Bruins attack and helped to keep the attack off of Binnington for most of the game and when Binnington did face some shots he did a decent job turning them away even if he did not play at the same level as Rask. The Bruins defense definitely has to step up in this game and sadly, the Bruins defense is not up to the task as the pressure increases in the push for the cup. Final Score Prediction, Saint Louis Blues win 3-2.
