10/26 NHL: Tampa Bay at NJ Devils

[swole]

Coming off a disappointing 4-3 loss in their last game, New Jersey has a chance to get on the winning track Wednesday at home.

New Jersey brings a 4-4-0 overall mark (3-2-0 in the division) into this game versus a Tampa Bay team carrying a 4-3-2 record.

The Devils are favored, opening as 120 chalk, with an opening total of 5.5. They are 4-4-0 this season and 5-2-1 OU. The Lightning are 4-3-2 and are 2-7-0 OU.

Last time out, at St. Pete Times Forum against Ottawa, the Lightning as underdogs lost to the Senators 4-1. The game was an under play.

Larry Robinson's troops were at Atlanta against the Thrashers last game and came away with a 4-3 loss, a game that went over 6. Oddsmakers had them as 150 money line favorites in that one.

Some trends to consider:
Tampa Bay is 1-7-0 OU in its last 8 games
Tampa Bay is 1-6-0 OU in its last 7 away
Tampa Bay is 1-2-3 OU in its last 6 games against New Jersey
Tampa Bay is 2-3-1 OU in its last 6 games away against New Jersey
New Jersey is 4-1-0 OU in its last 5 games
New Jersey is 2-3-1 OU in its last 6 games at home against Tampa Bay
New Jersey is 3-4-3 OU in its last 10 at home
