Devils vs Rangers Key Stats
New Jersey's offense has been the strength behind their successful season. The offense consists of Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier, who both have over 10 goal contributions to their name.
Their defense has done well, adding more to their team's strength and transforming it into one of the most solid defenses in the league. Goaltender Vitek Vanecek has guided the team with a save percentage of 0.923 and has been there for the majority of their games this season.
New York have been downplayed by poor returns on offense as they have failed to be consistent with their efforts. Only three players have had more than a goal contribution per game so far this season. Mika Zibanejad is the only exception and the first player to score 10 goals this season.
Their defense has put up a solid effort by keeping the margin on their side in wins and losses. The team will need similar performances going forward this season.
Devils vs Rangers Betting Prediction
Due to their strong offense and potent defense, New Jersey are ahead in this game from the start. Further, a 9-0 on-the-road record gives them an additional advantage in the matchup.
While New York have struggled against a high-scoring team and have been poor with four losses in their last five games at home. Their offense has never settled down and looks bleak coming into the game.
All these factors indicate New Jersey's win.
