Boston: Swayman - Zadorov, McAvoy - Geekie, Khusnutdinov, Pastrnak
🥅 Goalies
Ottawa's goalie Linus Ullmark is struggling at the start of the regular season. The Swede is saving just 87% of shots on average and making numerous mistakes. This is a stark contrast to his heroics last season, which helped the Canadian club reach the playoffs.
Boston's goaltender Jeremy Swayman is gradually returning to his best form. The netminder, who is vying for a spot on the US Olympic team, has an average save percentage of 89.9%, but his recent performances show clear signs of improvement.
Editor's Prediction
The club from Canada's capital has been performing quite well recently, consistently picking up points. However, the visitors' current exceptional form cannot be overlooked, boasting seven consecutive victories and the best scoring record within the Eastern playoff eight. While Ottawa's players are confident on home turf, Marco Sturm's side are at least capable of securing a draw in the upcoming match. Our bet - Boston will not lose.
