The Devils have lost exactly once in the last 18 games vs. Montreal played here at home. That's a prettty good starting point for this pick. New Jersey has defended the home ice very well this season going 9-2. They score a lot here and play solid defense. This line is low thanks to NJ's four-game losing streak to end November. But, let's not forget they won 8 of 10 prior to that and both games in December. And, two of those losses came as heavy underdogs to Anaheim and San Jose. They generally beat the teams they are supposed to beat. Devils in this one.
