Blues vs Devils Prediction

When it comes to a straight moneyline bet, look no further than the Devils. Nevertheless, given the payout of -235, you could also think about incorporating this bet into a parlay.

When it comes to my suggested pick for the puck line, I’d advise taking the Blues to cover. Even in the event of a Devils victory, this matchup is likely to remain closely contested, and the Blues should cover the puck line.

If you’re looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our prediction is that this game will exceed that mark, and we strongly advise placing a bet on the over.
