Sharks vs Devils Prediction

If you’re interested in a pure moneyline wager, then the Devils is the preferred option. However, with a payout of -343, it might be worth considering this bet as a component of a larger parlay.

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

If you’re looking at the over/under line set at 6.5 goals, our prediction is that this game will exceed that mark, and we strongly advise placing a bet on the over.
