NY Rangers @ NJ Devils
Who would have expected such a bad season from the Devils. They had acquired Kovalchuk and they seemed to have strengthened their squad. Injuries to Zach Parise, B. Salvador, Taormina and another defender Mark Fraser damaged them.
Devils are 9-24-2 this season while the Rangers are 21-14-2.
Devils have lost all of their last five matches despite having a great goaltender like Martin Brodeur. They lost two matches in a row on home ice. The first one was against the NY Islanders and the second and the last one was against the Maple Leafs. Devils allowed 9 goals in these two matches and they were able to score only two goals. They have had only one goal in the last five games. This is definitely their worst season in a very long time.
Rangers beat the same Islanders team 7-2 on Monday. They outshot the Islanders with a season high 50 shot performance and they capitalized on two of four powerplay opportunities.
Rangers are 10-4 SU in last 14 games against the Devils on road.
I am expecting Devils to turn things around at a point but this match doesn't look like that point to me. Rangers already beat them twice in last two matchups with 3-0 and 3-1 scores and they are way better than the Devils at the moment.
I will side with Rangers who are 12-6-0 on road this season.
