Islanders vs Bruins: Prediction| 2021| Last Game| H2H
The Bruins would like to do something they haven’t done in a while – win on the island. Boston has left its last four visits to Uniondale, and the home team leads 8–2 in the last 10 meetings.
The Islanders won a nail-biting overtime victory in Game 2, losing the series 1–1. Three of New York’s five wins in the post season have come in overtime or more.
Prediction
ISLANDERS (115) There is a value game in the form of little ‘dogs’ at home. New York must play in Uniondale in front of a raucous crowd. Varlamov was money at home too, going 12-3-3 with 1.87 GAA and .937 SV% with four of his seven shutouts on home ice during the regular season.
