NHL Odds: East Contenders Clash as Bruins Host Rangers

The Boston Bruins will host the New York Rangers this Saturday, giving fans of the NHL betting board an opportunity to play a pair of Original Six teams in a midseason matinee. As the reigning Stanley Cup champions, the Bruins are a fitting matchup against the Eastern Conference-leading Blue Shirts.

Get your NHL odds for this matchup at Bovada.

Think you know how it will all unfold? Not so fast. Although the Bruins sit a step back of the Rangers in the standings (if you could even call it that), they have the advantage in the minds of NHL odds makers.

According to Bovada the Bruins have 11/2 odds of winning the Stanley Cup. The Rangers, as dominant as they've been, sit tied for third place on that same list with 9/1.

Expect big things out of both clubs as they jockey for position in not only their divisions (they each lead), but for the conference. Though it looks as though they won?t be challenged by a Southeast Division foe for playoff seeding, every game counts in terms of securing the all-treasured No. 1 seed.

Is Boston's reign at the top coming to an end this season? Or will Brad Richards and the Rangers have to wait at least one more year before taking over the conference.

Hit the ice.

Bet on NHL action at its finest with Bovada.
