Chicago at New Jersey

Chicago has won five of six with great balance, ranking #11 in goals scored, fifth in goals allowed, fourth in penalty killing. They won those five games allowing a total of seven goals. The Blackhawks are 10-3 against the Metropolitan Division and this is a letdown spot for New Jersey. The Devils come off a wild victory over their most bitter rival, a 4-3 thriller in OT over the NY Rangers that had a playoff atmosphere. The New Jersey Devils are #18 in goals allowed, 23-49 playing on one day of rest. New Jersey goalie Cory Schneider has a poor 3.04 goals-against versus Chicago. The Devils are also 15-36 when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game, so back the rested visitors who've played just one game the last five days. Play Chicago.
