Pittsburgh Penguins vs Boston Bruins Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/11/26

The Pittsburgh Penguins will take on the Boston Bruins today. Yesterday, the Bruins beat up the New York Rangers by a score of 10-2. This is the most goals for the Bruins in a game since 1988. The Penguins on the other hand, lost by a score of 2-1 to the Calgary Flames. While only 1 goal is discouraging, the Penguins won 6 straight before yesterday. The Penguins also come into this one winning their last 3 away games and scoring a total of 16 goals in those games. Form like this is why the Penguins rank 9^th in goals per game at 3.29. The Penguins have also been incredible on the power play this year. They rank 2^nd in power play scoring percentage with 34 power play goals this year. The Penguins offense has found something on offense that has been hard to stop.

Looking at the Bruins, they have won 4 of their last 10 games. At home, they have won 2 of their last 6 while being held to 2 or fewer goals in 3 of those losses. While the Bruins scoring has lacked in some games, the real issue has been the number of goals they give up. They currently rank in the bottom 10 of the NHL with a 3.25 goals against average. It also doesn’t help when they lead the league in power play opportunities against them. That could play a major role in this game, as the Bruins have 611 penalty minutes compared to the Penguins 324 penalty minutes. Overall, I suspect the 10-goal game from the Bruins was a fluke, and that the Penguins offense will show dominance in this one. I am taking the Penguins on the money line.
