Playing the fourth game of a seven-game homestand, John Tortorella's Philadelphia Flyers (27-29-8) will host Sheldon Keefe's New Jersey Devils (33-25-6) on Sunday afternoon.
BOTTOM LINE: The New Jersey Devils take on the Winnipeg Jets in a non-conference matchup. New Jersey is 15-10-4 at home and 33-24-6 overall. The Devils are ninth in NHL play serving 9.0 penalty minutes per game.
Winnipeg's players will be glad to have Brandon Tanev and Luke Schenn, even as Jets management set its sights higher and missed.
The Devils will be without Dougie Hamilton on Friday night against the Jets as he deals with a lower-body injury.
There’s no better goaltender in the league than Connor Hellebuyck, and we anticipate Winnipeg's star netminder to continue his elite play against New Jersey.
The Winnipeg Jets will travel to the Garden State to face the New Jersey Devils. This could be a Stanley Cup preview as we share our NHL odds series and make a Jets-Devils prediction and pick. The Devils lead the head-to-head series 35-33.
