The Boston Bruins and Pittsburgh Penguins have a recent head-to-head record that points to a fiercely contested rivalry. The Bruins have won three of their previous four meetings, including a resounding 5-1 triumph in March 2024 and a close 3-2 victory in the most recent meeting on March 2, 2025. But Pittsburgh also demonstrated that they are capable of grinding out close victories, as evidenced by their 2-1 victory in the month of November 2024 and their thrilling 6-5 victory in January 2024. This forthcoming matchup might go any way because of how evenly matched the teams are in this series and how there is a mix of close defensive games and explosive outbursts.
