The New Jersey Devils and Detroit Red Wings are two teams that had strong starts to the season but have run into trouble recently. Read on for our best Devils vs. Red Wings pick based on top odds.
Inevitably, the New Jersey Devils have cooled off. After a stretch in which they won 21 of 24 games, the Devils have dropped nine of their past 11. New Jersey still sits in second place in the Metropolitan Division despite its recent slump, but challengers are closing in.
The Detroit Red Wings, meanwhile, have won three of their past four games but had lost six in a row and nine of 11 prior to their resurgence. That inconsistency has dropped Detroit to fifth in the Atlantic Division, one point behind the Buffalo Sabres.
Red Wings forward Robby Fabbri is set to play his first game of the season after recovering from yet another torn ACL. The 26-year-old produced 17 goals and 30 points in 56 games last season before getting hurt.
