New Jersey at Columbus

The Blue Jackets have been a rather hot team as they have won seven of their last nine. It is easy to see why. They have had outstanding goaltending from Steve Mason. Mason has four shutouts in his last nine games behind the net. He has allowed a total of 14 goals in his last nine, or just 1.6 per contest. It is one reason why the Jackets have played UNDER in eight of their last 10 at home and 15 of their last 21 overall. The Devils have a streak of their own as off of two day’s rest, they have proceeded to play 19-7-2 to the UNDER. It is hard to play OVER with a hot goaltender like Mason that is giving up virtually nothing, so I like this one to go UNDER the posted total.
