Preview
The New Jersey Devils return home and will host the Vancouver Canucks on Monday. This is the first time these teams face off this season.
VANCOUVER CANUCKS
The Canucks have won 3 straight games and are 14-15 on the road this season. With a 26-22-6 record overall they rank 6th in the Pacific.
J.T. Miller has 59 total points while scoring 20 goals and totaling 39 assists for the Canucks. Elias Pettersson has six goals and eight assists over the last 10 games for Vancouver.
In their last 10 games the Canucks are 7-3, averaging 4.2 goals, 6.3 assists, 3.6 penalties and 7.8 penalty minutes while allowing 3 goals per game with a .903 save percentage.
NEW JERSEY DEVILS
The Devils have lost their last 5 games at home and are coming from a loss against the Blackhawks. New Jersey is seventh in the Eastern Conference with 31.6 shots per game and is averaging 3.0 goals.
Bratt leads the Devils with 18 goals and has 48 points. Jack Hughes has four goals and seven assists over the last 10 games for New Jersey.
In their last 10 games the Devils are 3-7, averaging 3.7 goals, 6.3 assists, 3.6 penalties and 9.7 penalty minutes while giving up 3.9 goals per game with an .877 save percentage.
BETTING TRENDS
Vancouver are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Vancouver's last 5 games.
New Jersey are 0-5 SU in their last 5 games at home.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of New Jersey's last 6 games.
Prediction
The Devils have dominated the Canucks and they're 10-0 in their last 10 games against them but the Canucks get here after beating the Kraken, Flames and Rangers so it's not a good idea to go against them right now. The play here is the Over. The Over has cashed in 8 of the last 10 games for the Canucks and in 7 of the last 10 for the Devils. Both offenses has been really good lately and both teams are allowing more than 3 gpg. Give me the Over.
PICK: Over 6.5 (+100)
