The big picture
Tuesday night’s matchup between the Bruins and the Canucks will be the first time the two teams have met this season.
The Boston Bruins are 10-9-3 overall and 6-4-2 at TD Garden. They are mid-table in the Atlantic Division with 23 points from 22 matches.
The Bruins have a poor goal differential of -19. So far this season, Boston has scored 51 goals and given up 70. Only the bottom-of-the-division Canadiens (77) and the second-from-top Panthers (76) have conceded more.
Boston have won their last two, although they have lost two of their previous three at the Garden, the venue for the showdown with the Canucks.
The Vancouver Canucks are 10-6-3 overall and 7-1-0 on the road.
Vancouver has 23 points from 19 matches. They are in the bottom half of the Pacific Division but have three games in hand on the teams above them.
The Canucks have a goal differential of -1. They have scored 61 and conceded 62.
Both teams come into the fixture in similar positions. A winning streak would see either team get back amongst the front runners in their division. However, if there is a losing streak, either team will be firmly rooted in the wrong half of their respective leagues.

Boston Bruins vs. Vancouver Canucks Betting Picks and Predictions
Two things we know is that Boston concedes a lot of goals, and matches involving the Canucks can have lots of goals at both ends.
The last five matches involving Vancouver have seen 34 goals scored.
Boston’s last two matches have only seen four goals. But in the five before that, there were 30.
The Canucks are likely to continue playing in their more open style and this might mean a few goals and some problems for the hosts, who in fairness, have tried to tighten up defensively in their last couple of matches.
Despite this, our first pick is over 5.5 goals.
We see the Canucks taking the match to the Bruins. They might have been struggling results-wise recently, but one thing Vancouver hasn’t been short on is goals.
Our pick is for the Canucks to win. We see them outgunning a Bruins team that has only averaged 1.9 goals in their last ten matches.
