Among the matches that will kick off next Thursday, March 14, 2024 is a very interesting Atlantic Division clash with the Montreal Canadiens hosting the Boston Bruins at 17:00 Central, a match that, according to the sportsbooks' odds, is completely tilted in favor of the visiting team.

Reviewing the recent performance of both teams, the Montreal Canadiens come into this match as the second-to-last team in the Eastern Conference with just 60 points. The Canadiens seem to be anchored to this standing due to the fact that they have not been able to advance in terms of form, winning one in their last three.

Meanwhile, the Boston Bruins failed to keep pace with Florida after their most recent loss to the St. Louis Blues by 1-5, being now closer to third place in the Eastern Conference than to the lead. This game against Montreal is a must-win for this team, which needs to focus on being more consistent.
