Jets vs Devils Prediction
Give the Jets credit for winning three straight games, but we can’t forget that before this recent surge, they didn’t win a game since the great depression. The Jets are still a below-average team at both ends of the ice, and it’s going to take more than three straight wins for me to get on board.
The Devils have been the more consistent team, and their offense is on fire. The Devils have scored three or more goals in nine of their last 10 games. The Devils are averaging 4.6 goals during their five-game winning streak. The price is more than reasonable. I’m going to side with the Devils and the soft price. The Jets still have some showing and proving to do.
