  • UPDATE: Added a goal scorer pick + who will win section.

Rasmus Dahlin is an elite playmaker for the Buffalo Sabres, leading the team in assists with 55.

My Sabres vs. Bruins predictions expect to see the defenseman set up another goal in Game 4 against Boston.

Let’s dive into my NHL picks for Sunday, April 26.

Sabres vs Bruins Game 4 prediction

Who will win Sabres vs Bruins Game 4?

Buffalo: The Buffalo Sabres lead 2-1 despite Jeremy Swayman posting save percentages of .919, .943, and .931. He has given the Boston Bruins elite netminding, and they still trail. If his numbers dip at all, the Sabres will almost certainly head home up 3-1.

Sabres vs Bruins best bet: Rasmus Dahlin Over 0.5 assists (-115)

The Buffalo Sabres have generated 106 shot attempts, 57 scoring chances, and 6.45 expected goals with Rasmus Dahlin on the ice in this series. That has translated to only three goals.

Dahlin’s on-ice shooting percentage sits at 5.56% – lowest among 13 Sabres with 40+ minutes played – compared to 13.01% in the regular season.

While it’s not abnormal for Boston Bruins goaltender Jeremy Swayman to shave goals off the expected total, this kind of gap is not sustainable.

Given how many opportunities the Sabres are generating, and how involved Dahlin is in facilitating them, I like his chances of assisting in Game 4.

Sabres vs Bruins Game 4 goal scorer pick

Jack Quinn (+215)

Quinn found the back of the net in 32% of his games this season when generating at least six shot attempts, a number he has cleared in back-to-back games. He has an excellent shot and possesses the finishing ability needed to beat someone like Swayman.
