Premium Pick

New Jersey had a three-game win streak snapped by a 5-2 loss at Boston on Saturday, but that was their third game in four days. Now the Devils have had three days off to prepare for tonight's double-revenge game as Washington has won the first two meetings this season. Vitek Vanecek is expected in net for the Devils and he has won seven of his past 10 starts, owning a 13-7-1 record. Washington had lost four in a row while scoring a total of only five goals before the Capitals broke through with a 4-3 win last night against Pittsburgh. Darcy Kuemper had 33 saves and will likely turn the crease over to Hunter Shepard tonight for just his fourth start of the season. New Jersey has won eight of 10 versus Eastern Conference teams and seven of nine overall as a favorite. Take the Devils as a Max Play
