Devils vs. Ducks Pick
Money Line pick for Devils vs. Ducks
- Pick: Ducks +110 (+4 Units)
The Ducks have won two in a row and four of their last five games, while the Devils got over their first two-game losing streak of the season to win their last game. Both of these teams have been solid on the attack, but have not played the best defense. Anaheim has averaged five goals per game in their last four wins and will stay hot on the attack. The Devils are tied for the most goals per game in the league and will also get it done on the attack. Regarding the New Jersey Devils vs. Anaheim Ducks prediction, going with the golden rule and not backing the team on the second game of a road back-to-back and in a close game, the Ducks will edge the Devils on home ice for their third win in a row.
Over/Under Pick for Devils vs. Ducks
- Over 6.5 goals (+4 Units)
The total has gone Over for four of the last five games for the Ducks, and that is the pick I am leaning towards in this game. The Devils are tied for the top-scoring team in the league, and the Ducks rank seventh in goals per game. Anaheim scored five goals in their last game and has averaged five goals in their four wins in their last five games. While both of these teams have gotten it done in the scoring department, the Devils rank 15th in GAA, and the Ducks only rank 23rd. Goals will be plentiful in this non-conference matchup, so in a high-scoring game, the Over is the pick.
