Devils vs. Red Wings Preview
The New Jersey Devils are on the second game of a back-to-back and take on the Detroit Red Wings, who are coming off a 4-1 loss to the Ottawa Senators.
Expect Jake Allen to go between the pipes for the Devils, after Nico Daws started against the Senators.
The Devils came into Monday’s action ranking first in Shot Attempts% in 5-on-5 situations, while the Red Wings are eighth. Both teams have struggled on the penalty kill, with the Devils 29th and the Red Wings 26th.
With that said, I like riding with Devils ML due to the reasonable price.
The key for me here is the advantage in goal, as Allen is 32nd in Goals Saved Above Expected, while John Gibson is 51st. I’ll take the better team to bounce back following a disappointing loss to the Sens.
Best Bet: Devils Moneyline (-105)
