Devils at Red Wings picks and predictions

Prediction

Red Wings 4, Devils 3

Moneyline

The RED WINGS (+145) are a solid value as moderate underdogs at home.

New Jersey has picked up just 2 wins in the last 11 games, while cashing in just 2 of the last 10 outings against Eastern Conference foes. It is also just 9-19 in the previous 28 tries against Atlantic Division opponents.

For the Red Wings, they’re 9-4 in the last 13 games against Metropolitan Division teams, while going 4-1 in the last 5 meetings with New Jersey, and 14-6 in the past 20 battles at LCA.

Puck line/Against the spread

The Red Wings +1.5 (-200) will cost you 2 times your potential return, and that’s a little too much risk if you want some insurance.

AVOID.

Over/Under

OVER 6.5 (-110) is the lean in this Hump Day matchup.

While the Under is 6-2-1 in the last 9 games for the Devils, the Over is 5-1 in the last 6 games for the Red Wings, while going 5-1 in the last 6 games against Eastern Conference foes.

The Over is 6-2-1 in the previous 9 meetings in Detroit, while going 4-1 in the last 5 battles in this series.

Devils at Red Wings picks and predictions

Prediction

Red Wings 4, Devils 3

Moneyline

New Jersey has some terrific puck-possession analytics through the early going. The Devils have been creating a ton of quality chances while allowing few.

Look for a bounce-back effort despite the games on consecutive days. Against a bit of a banged-up Detroit offense, there is some leverage in NEW JERSEY (-112).

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS on the juice-heavy puck-line props.

Over/Under

There is a lot of juice here for an O/U. Although there is more firepower to this New Jersey offense than in the last couple of years, the netminding in this one has question marks. However, the pricing does not offer value.

PASS.

New Jersey Devils at Detroit Red Wings odds, picks, and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s New Jersey Devils at Detroit Red Wings odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The New Jersey Devils (10-13-5) and Detroit Red Wings (14-13-3) meet Saturday night in the Motor City. Puck drop at Little Caesars Arena is slated for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Devils vs. Red Wings odds and lines and make our expert NHL picks, predictions and bets.

New Jersey enters this contest having lost four straight overall and five consecutive games on the road.

The Devils’ power play has been ice-cold during this spell with just 3 goals in its last 37 attempts, and overall New Jersey ranks 30th in the NHL with a 12.8% mark with the man advantage. Add to that the fact that things have gone sideways for a Devils defense yielding 4.0 goals per game over the team’s last 16 games.

The Red Wings are just 1-4 over their last five games, but Detroit is 6-1 across its last seven games on home ice. The Wings have also struggled with their power play (16.3%), but they have gotten big efforts between the pipes, especially over their recent games at home.

Devils at Red Wings projected goalies

Mackenzie Blackwood (5-6-3, 3.14 GAA, .901 SV%, 2 SO) vs. Thomas Greiss (5-6-0, 3.67 GAA, .889 SV%)

Blackwood is 1-5-1 with an .876 SV% since Nov. 30 and has a 4.74 GAA and .869 SV% through seven road games this season.

Greiss has struggled over a recent small sample (.789 SV% last 132 minutes), but the veteran has allowed 2 goals or fewer in four of five home starts.

Devils at Red Wings odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Red Wings 4, Devils 2

Money line

The public looks to be dialed in on this one. In other words, betting on both sides has leveled the prices just about where they should be, in line with true probabilities.

With Detroit at home and New Jersey struggling on the road — and with some fade-Blackwood lean/play-Detroit goalies lean based on short-handed numbers — DETROIT (-130) gets the nod. However, it’s a small lean.

Against the spread

The better price for the risk is on DETROIT -1.5 (+180). The price is competitive in the market, and the game has an Over lean. New Jersey has coughed up 23 goals over its last four road tilts.

Over/Under

The lean on this one is toward the Over 5.5. But STEER CLEAR of the steep pricing here.
