The New Jersey Devils (17-13-1, 9-5-1 Home) will try to end their home losing streak on Saturday, December 13, when they host the Anaheim Ducks (19-11-1, 8-7-1 Away) at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. The puck is scheduled to drop at 12:30 p.m. EST with the NHL Network providing coverage.
New Jersey got the season off to a solid start, winning eight of their first nine games. November was a little more challenging (8-5-1); so far, December has not been too kind to them. With an 8-4 loss to Tampa Bay Thursday night, they’ve gone 1-5 in December and 1-6 in their last seven games, including a five-game home losing streak. But despite their recent struggles, the Devils are favored to beat the Ducks. As for Anaheim, the Ducks had a slower start to their season, going 5-3-1 in their first nine games. November saw them go 10-6, and so far in December, they’ve gone 4-2 for an overall record of 19-11-1, good enough for second in the Western Conference’s Pacific Division. However, they did lose their last time out, 5-2 to the New York Islanders Thursday night, making them 2-2 on the road in December.

Our New Jersey Devils vs Anaheim Ducks Prediction
I’m not sure why New Jersey is the favorite in this game. Anaheim is not a great road team, but it's not a bad one either. Given how much the Devils have struggled at home of late and with Timo Meier (who leads the team in goals), I don’t see them suddenly playing better at home. I’ve got to go with the visiting Ducks here to win outright.
