Rangers vs Devils Pick
Money Line Pick For Rangers vs Devils
- Devils (-170) (4 units)
The Rangers look to step up and pull off the upset but the Devils, who have won three in a row, look to take this one on their home ice. The Devils should constantly find the back of the net against the Rangers, who allow 3.15 goals per game, with Jesper Bratt, Jack Hughes, and the rest of the forward unit controlling the puck in the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Devils should limit the Rangers offense with Dougie Hamilton, Luke Hughes, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Jacob Markstrom, who has allowed only five goals in his last three starts, to make plenty of big saves. The Devils should win the game with a strong performance on their home ice.
Take the Devils money line as home Favorites.
Over/Under Pick For Rangers vs Devils
- Under 5.5 (5 Units)
The two teams have awful offenses and this game looks to be a low-scoring one from the opening puck drop. The Rangers should limit the Devils offense, which averages only 2.52 goals per game, with Vladislav Gavrikov, William Borgen, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Igor Shesterkin to make plenty of big saves. The Devils, who have allowed only five goals in their last three games, should eliminate and potentially shut out the Rangers, who average only 2.67 goals per game, with Luke Hughes, Dougie Hamilton, Simon Nemec, and the rest of the defensive unit forcing turnovers in the neutral zone and defensive zone while goaltender Jacob Markstrom blanks the shots on the net. The Under should cover in a low-scoring game with both defenses stepping up.
Take the Under on 5.5 goals.
