Kevin Hayes leads Philly with 8 points coming on 3 goals and 5 assists while Jakub Voracek and Travis Konecny each have 7 points with Voracek leading the Flyers with 6 assists while Konecny has a team-high 5 goals.

Carter Hart’s seen the majority of the action in goal this season, posting a 2-2 record with a 4.18 GAA and 19 goals allowed on 158 shots against.

The New Jersey Devils will look to build off of a 2-0 win over the New York Islanders in their last matchup. Jack Hughes leads the Devils in scoring with 7 points coming on 3 goals with 4 assists while Ty Smith has 6 points including a team-high 5 assists.

Philadelphia is 22-10 in their last 32 games overall and 1-4 in their last 5 road games while the over is 5-1 in their last 6 games overall. New Jersey is 7-2 in their last 9 home games and 5-2 in their last 7 games as a home underdog while the under is 4-1 in their last 5 games overall. Philadelphia is 15-31 in the last 46 meetings between these two teams in New Jersey and the over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between these two teams in New Jersey.

I went back and forth on the total for this game, but ultimately I’m going to side with the under. I think Carter Hart’s better than what he’s shown us lately and the Devils are playing solid defensive hockey in their own right and I expect this to be a battle so give me the under as my free pick for this game but my stronger play is on the side and I have that available as a premium pick that you can find here.
