The New Jersey Devils host the Minnesota Wild, looking to break an odd streak that could pop up again here. When New Jersey is playing the second night of a home back-to-back as a favorite, it has lost four in a row. This is also a rare spot where the schedule could work against the home team. While New Jersey played on Tuesday in Toronto, Minnesota was idle. The Wild also traveled less, as Hudson River traffic aside, it’s a lot easier to go from New York to Newark on Tuesday than it is from Toronto to New Jersey.
That said, the Devils have been hitting on all strides. They handled Toronto with ease and ride a five-match win streak into a matchup that has served them well. New Jersey has had no issues scoring on Minnesota in recent matchups, and the Devils’ offense suggests that’s likely to hold up here.

Our New Jersey Devils vs Minnesota Wild Prediction
Avoiding penalties will be a critical part of this game. Both of these teams can score on the power play with the best of the NHL, as the Wild rank second with the man advantage and the Devils rank fifth. New Jersey, however, has a much sharper penalty kill, ranking third in the league. When the Wild give up a penalty, they’re going to give up a goal about one in four penalties.
That’s far too often, even with the Devils’ travel issues. As long as New Jersey doesn’t get victimized by dead legs, it’s going to have the edge here. The fact that New Jersey has had problems with back-to-backs is concerning, but the small moneyline here mitigates that worry. Our prediction for Minnesota vs. New Jersey is for the Devils to win.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
