The Boston Bruins will be looking to extend their advantage at the top of the Atlantic Division on Thursday, as they take on the Calgary Flames. However, the visitors will be looking to get back on track after losing their previous six games in the NHL.
Before Betting On Flames vs Bruins
The Boston Bruins have started the new NHL season in fine form, as they sit top of the Atlantic Division. They have won eleven of the 13 games that they have played this season, and they have the best attacking and best defensive record in the Eastern Conference. They have won eight of their previous ten games, which includes a victory in their previous game against the St. Louis Blues.
The Bruins scored twice in the final period to secure the win in that fixture. It was an excellent finish by the home side in that fixture, with three different scorers finding the net. Patrice Bergeron, Jake DeBrusk and Trent Frederic all scored in the win at home against the Blues.
However, the Flames come into this fixture with something to prove, as they have been beaten in their previous six games. That has seen them drop to fifth in the Pacific Division standings, as they have won just five games from 12 this term. They have conceded 40 goals so far, and have scored on just 37 occasions.
Their most recent defeat was suffered on the road against the New Jersey Devils. The Devils wrapped up the win with their third goal in the final period. Goals in that defeat for the Flames were scored by Nazem Kadri and Tyler Toffoli.
