Boston occupies a leading position in the East and has already been able to break away from the closest pursuer by six points. Recall that in the last four matches out of five, the team also celebrated success. They unexpectedly lost to Los Angeles (2:3 B), but in subsequent meetings she dealt with Columbus (4:2) and Florida with a score of 7:3. The Bruins continue to put up a great scoring record and usually have no trouble hitting three or four goals. It is noteworthy that at the home arena, the Montgomery team still did not know the bitterness of defeat within 60 minutes.
Winnipeg is in third place in the Western Conference and the current state of affairs should be completely satisfied with it. The team, as a rule, earns points in matches with “middle players” and outsiders and from time to time gives a worthy rebuff to the leaders. Recently the Jets dealt with Vancouver (5:1) on the road and after an unsuccessful match with Seattle (2:3), they beat Ottawa 5:1 at home. On the road, Rick Bowness’s squad usually doesn’t play as well as on home ice, but still demonstrates decent performance. By the way, Morrissey, Connor and Dubois have already scored over 35 points in the goal + pass system. In each game, one of them consistently differs in effective actions on the court.
