Florida Panthers vs New Jersey Devils Prediction
I’m on the Panthers here. I just can’t trust the Devils with how inconsistent they’ve been and the goaltending is always capable of getting roughed up on any given day. Even last time out, the goaltending was outstanding but still lost to one of the lesser teams in the NHL, the Sharks. The Panthers are just too hot to go against right now and I’ll roll with them at home here.
