Flyers Grab Big Road Win Against The Islanders
The Flyers are coming off a 4-3 shootout win over the New York Islanders last night, a game where Trevor Zegras scored both in regulation and the shootout, while Tyson Foerster and Sean Couturier added first-period goals to build an early lead. Samuel Ersson, who will get the start again against New Jersey, made 28 saves and stood tall in the shootout to secure Philadelphia’s fourth win in their last five games.
Offensively, the Flyers remain near the bottom of the league, averaging just 2.7 goals per game (26th) and ranking last in shots at 24.5 per game. Their power play has been inconsistent at 16.9% (22nd), though Zegras’ addition has given them a spark in recent weeks. Philadelphia relies heavily on opportunistic scoring and transition play, with Travis Konecny and Matvei Michkov providing speed and creativity. Faceoff struggles have hurt them, winning only 47.9% (24th), which limits puck possession against stronger teams.

Defensively, the Flyers have been much stronger, allowing only 2.8 goals per game (10th) and ranking 5th in shots against (25.5). Their penalty kill has been excellent at 86.2% (4th), and Ersson has provided steady goaltending with one shutout already this season. Discipline remains a concern, with 241 penalty minutes (9th most), but when they stay out of the box, Philadelphia’s defensive structure has kept them competitive. Against New Jersey’s high-powered offense, the Flyers will need Ersson sharp again and their penalty kill to continue its strong form.
Jake Allen Has 42 Saves To Blank Buffalo
The Devils enter this matchup after a 5-0 shutout win over the Buffalo Sabres on November 28, where Arseny Gritsyuk scored twice, Nico Hischier added a goal, and Jake stopped all 42 shots for his first shutout of the season. It was a statement performance that extended New Jersey’s record to 16-7-1 and showcased their ability to dominate both ends of the ice.
Offensively, New Jersey has been one of the more dangerous teams in the league, averaging 3.1 goals per game (11th) while ranking 10th in shots (29.2 per game). Their power play has been a weapon at 23.7% (8th), with Jesper Bratt and Timo Meier consistently generating chances. Hischier continues to be the heartbeat of the forward group, while Simon Nemec has emerged as a scoring threat from the blue line. The Devils’ ability to roll multiple lines with scoring depth makes them difficult to contain, especially at home.
Defensively, New Jersey has been solid, allowing 2.9 goals per game (14th) and ranking 8th in penalty kill efficiency (82.9%). Markstrom has stabilized the crease, and when he is on he can be strong. The Devils do give up a fair number of shots at 28.5 per game (21st), but their defensive structure and quick transition game often offset that. Discipline has been a strength, with only 176 penalty minutes (27th fewest), keeping opponents from gaining momentum on special teams. Against Philadelphia, New Jersey’s balanced attack and strong goaltending should give them the upper hand if they maintain their pace and execution.
Philadelphia Flyers vs New Jersey Devils Pick
Flyers vs Devils Moneyline Pick
- Devils -145 (5 Units)
The Devils still look like the stronger side here, especially after that 5-0 shutout win over Buffalo last night, where Jake Allen stopped all 47 shots and Arseny Gritsyuk scored twice to lead the offense. New Jersey has been steady all season at generating offense, averaging 3.1 goals per game (11th) and ranking 10th in shots (29.2), with a power play clicking at 23.7% (8th). Their ability to roll multiple scoring lines with Nico Hischier, Jesper Bratt, and Timo Meier gives them a balanced attack that can pressure Philadelphia’s defense for a full sixty minutes. Playing at home, the Devils should be able to dictate pace and force the Flyers into chasing the game.
Defensively, New Jersey has been reliable, allowing 2.9 goals per game (14th) while boasting a top-10 penalty kill at 82.9%. Allen’s shutout against Buffalo was a reminder that their goaltending depth can deliver when needed, and with Markstrom expected back in net against the Flyers, the crease remains in good hands. Philadelphia, meanwhile, averages just 2.7 goals per game (26th) and ranks last in shots at 24.5 per game, which plays directly into the Devils’ ability to control possession. With New Jersey’s offense clicking and their defensive structure holding firm, this sets up as a matchup where the Devils should carry momentum and come away with the win.
Flyers vs Devils Over/Under Pick
- Under 6 (4 Units)
The Under 6 feels like the right angle because both teams have shown defensive stability despite occasional lapses, and the goaltending matchup sets up well for a lower-scoring game. The Flyers allow just 2.8 goals per game (10th) and rank 5th in shots against (25.5), with Samuel Ersson starting after a strong performance against the Islanders. New Jersey, meanwhile, has held opponents to 2.9 goals per game (14th) and owns a top-10 penalty kill at 82.9%, with Jacob Markstrom expected back in net after Jake Allen’s shutout against Buffalo. Philadelphia’s offense ranks near the bottom at 2.7 goals per game (26th), and while the Devils are more potent at 3.1 goals per game (11th), their defensive structure combined with the Flyers’ stingy penalty kill points toward a tight, grind-it-out matchup that stays below the total.
