The Vegas Golden Knights have had a rough go of it lately in dropping four of five games. Also, they have not had recent success versus their next opponent in the Boston Bruins, either, as they suffered a 4-1 loss in their last meeting.
The Bruins, on the other hand, continue to hold on to second place within the Atlantic standings. However, the Toronto Maple Leafs are in hot pursuit as they sit in third place, roughly three games behind in the division.
Boston Bruins
Despite them currently being pursued by the Maple Leafs, the Bruins continue to pick up victories as they are winners of six straight. In all, the Bruins have averaged over 4 goals per outing during their winning streak while the defense has allowed just 15 goals during this time.
However, the San Jose Sharks posted five goals in their last outing as they were able to rally from a 3-1 deficit at the end of the first period to outscore Boston 3-1 in the following period to tie the game at 5-all. Of course, the Bruins were able to get a goal from Chris Wagner to send the game into overtime, after an earlier goal by the Sharks Joe Thornton.

Vegas Golden Knights
Efficiency troubles on the offensive end continues to plague the Golden Knights of Vegas. They continue to remain within second-place within the Pacific division, however, despite dropping seven of their last ten games, overall.

Point leader Alex Tuch has only two points in the last ten outings for the Golden Knights while the leader in shots in Jonathan Marchessault has not scored in five straight outings for Vegas while having 18 attempts to do so.
