Game Preview
It has been a sensational start to the new NHL season for the New Jersey Devils. The franchise already sit top of the Metropolitan Division after winning six of their opening seven games. Meanwhile, no side in the Eastern Conference have scored more goals.
However, it is the Devils’ consistency that is most eye-catching. They come into this Friday showdown after winning each of their last six. Their latest outing saw them register a 4-1 home win over the Minnesota Wild, with Brenden Dillon and Jasper Bratt both finding the net.
This could be a mismatch based on the form of the San Jose Sharks. The visitors sit bottom of the Pacific Division at this early stage of the campaign, and they are the only team in the Western Conference that are yet to register a victory in 2025-26.
In fact, they come into this weekend after losing each of their last six games. Their most recent defeat was suffered on the road last week, as they were narrowly beaten 4-3 by the New York Islanders.
Sharks vs. Devils Picks
This matchup is a massive mismatch based on the recent form in the book. The Sharks can’t win a game, while the Devils are on a long winning sequence. Therefore, the smart money is with the hosts when making Sharks vs. Devils picks.
