Penguins vs Devils Prediction

Both teams were tied 2-2 wins last season but the Devils are 7-3 in their last 10 meetings and 5-1 in their last 6 meetings in New Jersey.

In this Penguins vs Devils Prediction, the Devils are coming as -205 home favorites. This line is disrespectful towards the Penguins, who have exactly the same number of points as the Devils. Both teams have not been in good form lately, as they are 2-3 in their last 5 games each but they both have elite offenses this season, scoring 7.17 goals per game combined. They also have top power plays with 27% and 36% so I expect a lot of goals in this one. Take the over 6.5 goals.
