New Jersey scored 5 points in the first 4 games, all games were hard fought and with a lot of pucks (the average team total is over 7 goals per game).
Washington again unsuccessfully started the new season, so far after 4 rounds the team is in last place in the Eastern Conference, scoring only 6 pucks.
New Jersey is nominally considered the favourite today, although it is unknown what will happen in the 3rd period, it is at the end of games that teams score most of their pucks. We can bet on a win in the Devils' match, but still Washington knows how to surprise in away games, so let's bet on the total.
Prediction: at least 6 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5.5" bet, odds 1.53
