New Jersey Devils ML (+110) over Carolina Hurricanes
The New Jersey Devils have been in command of the Metro Division throughout the season thus far. However, their Cinderella Story has taken a turn for the worst as of late. Following their loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday, they've now dropped their last 5 games and the Hurricanes have actually tied them for the division lead. That makes this matchup all the more important, and the Devils can answer the call. They've been off since that Saturday loss and it's important to note who their losses have come against.'
New Jersey has had to play the New York Rangers, Dallas Stars and Panthers in that stretch. Those are more than understandable losses, and the rest should help the bounce back. Carolina is coming off 2 incredibly difficult, hard-fought games against the Pittsburgh Penguins and Stars, and each of their last 3 games have been decided by just 1 goal. Furthermore, arguably their best skater – Sebastian Aho – is not 100% healthy. We're anticipating a more defensive game, but the Devils are no stranger to that this season and can use that to their advantage and snap this losing skid.'
