San Jose at New Jersey

This is a 3,000-mile road trek for San Jose on a 5-7 slide. San Jose ranks #27 in the NHL in goals scored, #30 in shots on goal, while the defense is #29 in save percentage. The Sharks are 4-9 against the Eastern Conference. They just dumped defenseman Brenden Dillon to Washington for a pair of draft picks and forward Evander Kane will sit out the third game of his three-game suspension. New Jersey is playing its fifth home game over the last seven contests. They have a winning record the last seven games and have won three in a row as chalk. With the favorite 5-1 when these teams clash, back home ice and play New Jersey.
