Boston on the other hand have not been amazing this year, but I feel who are just starting to get rolling and who I believe will be making a deep run towards yet another Stanley Cup and that quest continues this Thursday.
New York Rangers
The Rangers were not very good in their two game series against the Pittsburgh Penguins, as they were out-classed by a mediocre Pittsburgh team with those performances being especially disappointing considering this team went into that two game set riding a 3 game winning streak.
Left-winger Chris Kreider is helping out big time in terms of offense, as he leads this team in goals with 13 and that has been important with some of the younger guys on this team not panning out right out of the gates.
Unfortunately for the Rangers they are still missing out on Artemi Panarin who has been away from the team for close to three weeks and he was crushing it with 5 goals and 13 assists in only 14 games, but it does remain to be seen when we will see him back in action or how effective he will be once he returns.
Alexander Georgiev is now confirmed to be starting in this matchup, and he will need to improve upon his previous performances if the Rangers are going to make a late season run, as a goals against average over 3 is not going to cut it.
Boston Bruins
No, it has not been all that great for the Bruins recently losing 3 of their last 4, but the last 2 were one goal games and the Bruins have all the pieces in place to make a deep run this postseason and I thoroughly expect them to do just that.
Tukka Rask did not start out the season well, but we know he is a guy who can show up when the lights are the brightest and goaltending will not be the thing that makes or breaks the Bruins 2021 season.
In terms of overall offense this team has been rock solid averaging 2.78 goals per game on a 25% power play success rate with the driving force of the offense being Brad Marchand who has 12 goals and 16 assists in what is one of his better seasons in recent times.

Free New York Rangers vs. Boston Bruins NHL Prediction:
The Bruins are miles ahead of the New York Rangers at this point and I really have no problem going with Boston here at -200. If, however, if you don’t want to pay all that juice I would have no issue with riding with the Bruins on the puckline here to try and get that price closer to even money.
