Game Preview

The NJ Devils will have home field advantage in the NHL on Friday when they welcome the Vegas Golden Knights. A reversal in their fortunes is required this week, as the team have dropped to 16-10-1 and fifth in the Metropolitan Division following a run of three straight defeats.

They were comprehensively outplayed in their latest outing, losing 3-0 on home soil against the Dallas Stars. Their offensive players didn’t click in that defeat, despite over 15 shots on target being recorded.

The Vegas Golden Knights should be a confident team ahead of this showdown following wins in each of their last two. In fact, a victory on Friday could send them to the top of the Pacific Division. Vegas have gone 5-2-3 across their last ten games.

Vegas held their nerve in their latest outing to record a 4-3 shootout success over the Chicago Blackhawks. Braeden Bowman, Ivan Barbashev, and Ben Hutton all ended that clash with goals.

Golden Knights vs. Devils Picks

The Golden Knights hold a very healthy head-to-head advantage over the Devils, and that bodes well for their chances this weekend. Due to that reason, we could foresee Vegas recording a third straight success in the NHL on Friday.
