New Jersey at Philadelphia

The New Jersey Devils opened the season at 0-7 and 1-9 a season ago, so they had reason to have some fire in their belly for the 2014-15 season. They came out strong, winning their first three games of the season, but it has not been good since. They have not matched that three-game winning streak to open the season, and in fact are 5-13 in their last 18 games. Philadelphia has found little success of late themselves, winning just one of their last eight. The good news is that seven of those eight were on the road, and they return to a more friendly environment at home where they are 6-4-2 on the season. The Devils have carried a lot of baggage on the road where they are an ugly 24-51 in their last 75, while the Flyers are kings against teams below .400 at a resounding 141-71-18 in their last 236 against them. Take Philadelphia in this one.
