Two of the less effective teams in the current NHL season were Pittsburgh Penguins and Boston Bruins, so it cannot be taken as a big surprise that their clash of next Sunday is expected to be one of the less anticipated games in the calendar. However, they still are battling to avoid the last spot of the Eastern Conference, so some dignity is expected to be demonstrated by both teams.
Despite that bad context, Pittsburgh Penguins were able to win their last 2 confrontations in a row, games in which they scored 4 or more goals. Despite those good results, Pittsburgh Penguins still are the worst defensive line in the Eastern Conference after conceding 287 goals throughout the season, numbers that must motivate them to get some defensemen of category during the transfer window.
Meanwhile, Boston Bruins will finalize this season as the worst defensive line in the Eastern Conference, a very disappointing label that will pursue them despite having one of the most dangerous players in the league like David Pastrnak. In this matter, it’s a fact that the Bruins aren’t expected to emulate such a bad performance during the next season, but some attacking reinforcements will be needed.
