Wednesday NHL Free play. My selection is on New Jersey over Boston at 7 pm ET on Wednesday. The Devils have hit a rough patch with four consecutive losses, but this is a prime spot for them to rebound at home. Despite the skid, New Jersey has been strong on home ice this season, sporting a 12-8-4 record and outscoring opponents by an average margin of 0.4 goals per game. This matchup marks a critical opportunity to get back on track before the Devils embark on a grueling stretch with 10 of their next 13 games on the road. Boston comes off a 6-3 home victory over the struggling Sharks on Monday but has been inconsistent away from home, owning a 9-12-3 road record and being outscored by an average margin of 1.2 goals per game. While the Bruins have shown flashes of improvement recently, they remain vulnerable in road contests, particularly against motivated opponents like New Jersey. The Devils' urgency to end their slide and take advantage of home ice should lead to a strong performance in this spot. Take New Jersey. Projected score: Devils 3, Bruins 1. |
