Next Thursday night the last game in the NHL regular season series between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the New Jersey Devils will take place at 05:00 pm CST in New Jersey. For this game, the Devils are expected to have weak motivation, as they have already been eliminated from playoff contention.
Despite these circumstances, the odds aren’t clearly supporting the Pittsburgh Penguins to win this game, but it should be noted that they are one of the strongest teams in the Metropolitan Division. Furthermore, the Penguins currently have a 20-10-8 record on the road, so they can be considered one of the dark horses of the regular season. However, the Penguins aren’t expected to battle for the Stanley Cup championship.
As for the New Jersey Devils, this team has struggled a lot since mid-season, so management is expected to make some changes for the next season to become a competitive team. In this regard, it should be noted that during their most recent games, the Devils were heavily dependent on Jack Hughes, an unhealthy context that has also taken some other victims this season, like the Toronto Maple Leafs.
