Avalanche vs Devils Prediction

I’m on the Devils in this one. I get the case to be made for the Avalanche, who have been money at home for the better part of the last few seasons, as the Ball Arena is a tough place to go and play on the road. That being said, the Avs are just struggling right now, and I’m worrying if the goaltending is just overworked at this point. New Jersey’s playing well right now, and at this price, until they cool off, I think we have to take it. Give me the Devils.
