New Jersey fell to the New York Islanders 6-4 on Friday, but the Devils haven't lost consecutive games since the first week of the season and they'll look to bounce back again tonight against the Rangers. Vitek Vandecek had a rare bad night in net allowing four goals, but he still is 12-2-1 with a 2.29 goals-against average with two shutouts this season and he is probable for this game. New Jersey won the first meeting this season 5-3 on Nov. 28 and it has won its last 11 road games and 10 of 11 overall against a team that allowed two or fewer goals its previous game. The Rangers have lost four of their past five home games and they are just 2-8 their past 10 games versus teams with .600 or higher winning percentages. Igor Shesterkin is expected in net for the Rangers and he allowed four goals in the first meeting. Take the Devils.
