New Jersey Devils vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction, Odds and Picks for Saturday, 12/21/24

The Pittsburgh Penguins travel to New Jersey to take on the Devils for the first time this season. Pittsburgh has won 2 in a row and continue to try and keep pace in a very competitive Metropolitan Division. They are still one of the worst defensive teams, allowing 3.68 goals and 31.8 shots against. This has been going on all season and it’s not going to change now.

The Devils come into this game coming off a tough loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, but they did win their 3 previous game prior. This team is loaded with offensive players who can find the back of the net and their goaltending tandem of Jacob Markstrom and Jake Allen has been very respectable. There’s still some room for Markstrom’s game to improve, but on the season, he has a 2.29 GAA and a .909 SV%. He’s done his part. This game won’t be a blowout so it’s hard to trust the Devils to cover the Puck Line, but they should be able to do more than enough to secure the win in regulation.
