The Boston Bruins host the Montreal Canadiens in a coin-flip matchup that the model leans slightly toward the home side. David Pastrnak carries a 70% chance of recording at least one point, while Nick Suzuki projects at 64% for Montreal. The game turns on shot volume: if Cole Caufield of the Canadiens can generate his projected 3.3 shots and convert at an above-average rate, Montreal's road chances improve significantly.
