New York Rangers and Boston Bruins head-to-head record
The Rangers have won four out of their last five games with the Bruins, getting a total of 18 goals compared to the Bruins' 13. The Rangers had major victories in September and March due to good offense, while the Bruins only won once recently on the second of February, scoring six goals. The Rangers have a strong offense this season and can create more scoring chances, so they might have the edge again. Boston's latest win shows they can take advantage of New York's weak defense if they manage to score like that again. It will be a tough game, with the Rangers being favorites because of their past performance, but the Bruins are aiming to continue their recent winning ways.
