THE TEAM NEWS

NEW JERSEY DEVILS

  • New Jersey Devils ended their losing streak at three-games as they were able to overcome Carolina Hurricanes but the Devils must find a way to now build on that as they sit bottom of the Metropolitan Division.
  • The Devils have struggled throughout the early part of the season but more so in recent games having conceded 16 goals across their three consecutive losses and despite conceding another three against the Hurricanes, they were able to score five of their own.
  • Left winger Jesper Bratt left the game against the Hurricanes with an upper body injury and he is questionable to feature in this contest with the severity of the knock yet to be determined.

WINNIPEG JETS

  • Winnipeg Jets picked up an important win as they edged out Vegas Golden Knights in overtime and that result gave the Jets their third win from their last four games which has seen them improve to 8-7-0.
  • It was a superb comeback by the Jets who had found themselves 1-3 down early in the first period but rallied to tie the game in the third period and completed their comeback with the winner in overtime.
  • The injury-hit Jets have only just got center Adam Lowry back from a two-match suspension and he found himself in further trouble after a controversial hit on Alex Tuch against the Golden Knights but he has avoided further sanctions.

THE PREDICTION

New Jersey Devils have won the joint-fewest games in the NHL so far this season but managed to pick up just their third victory as they defeated Carolina Hurricanes last time out. The Devils have not been far off in lots of their losses of late but their defensive troubles have seen them struggle. They now head to Winnipeg to face the Jets who have won three of their last four and they should be able to improve that record to four from five here.
