Moneyline Pick: New Jersey Devils I’m taking New Jersey. The Devils have been better, they’re at home, and they just beat Edmonton. St. Louis is capable of making this interesting, but the Blues have been giving up too many goals and just managed one against the Rangers. I trust New Jersey to create more scoring opportunities and do a better job finishing them. Give me the Devils.

Total Pick: Under 6.5 Goals I’ll lean under 6.5 if that’s the available number. St. Louis has been inconsistent offensively, and New Jersey doesn’t need to turn this into a shootout to win. The Devi ... uesday’s tight contest against Edmonton. The danger is St. Louis giving up four or five by itself. But if the Blues keep this respectable, I can see a 3-2 or 4-2 finish. That’s enough for the under.

Moneyline NJ (71%) Best Odds 68% Pick made: 13 minutes ago Dustin Saracini Senior Analyst ... The New Jersey Devils are incredible at home, rocking a 7-2-2 record this season, and are in the midst of playing their best hockey. After wins over the Golden Knights and Oilers, the Devils should have no trouble with the St. Louis Blues.
