The Ottawa Senators and New Jersey Devils meet Saturday in NHL action at the Prudential Center. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

The Ottawa Senators are averaging 3.1 goals per game and are scoring on 23.7 percent of their power play opportunities. Tim Stutzle leads Ottawa with 35 goals, Brady Tkachuk has 42 assists and Alex DeBrincat has 235 shots on goal. Defensively, the Ottawa Senators are allowing 3.2 goals per game and are killing 82.4 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Anton Forsberg has allowed 80 goals on 817 shots faced, and Cam Talbot has given up 83 goals on 874 shots.

The New Jersey Devils are averaging 3.5 goals per game and are scoring on 21.1 percent of their power play opportunities. Jack Hughes leads New Jersey with 37 goals, Dougie Hamilton has 48 assists and Nico Hischier has 225 shots on goal. Defensively, the New Jersey Devils are allowing 2.7 goals per game and are killing 82.2 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Vitek Vanecek has allowed 105 goals on 1,156 shots faced, and Mackenzie Blackwood has allowed 46 goals on 461 shots.

The Senators are 68-148 in their last 216 road games and 2-6 in their last 8 overall. The Devils are 1-4 in their last 5 home games and 1-4 in their last 5 overall. The over is 11-4 in Senators last 15 overall. The under is 6-2 in Devils last 8 overall. The favorite is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings.

The Ottawa Senators aren’t playing well, they haven’t won on the road dating back to last season, and there’s a good chance they take a complete nosedive with their season all but finished. The New Jersey Devils may be on the end of a back to back, but they’re still the better side here, and they’re still fighting for seeding. Give me the Devils to get yet another victory.
