N.Y. Islanders versus New Jersey in Atlantic battle
If familiarity breeds contempt, there should be animosity aplenty when the Devils visits division rival N.Y. Islanders at Nassau Coliseum Wednesday.
N.Y. Islanders brings a 16-14-2 overall mark (5-5-0 in the division) into this game versus a New Jersey team carrying a 15-13-5 record.
Oddsmakers like the Islanders in this one, opening the line at 145 in favor of N.Y. Islanders. They are 16-14-2 this season, while the Devils are 15-13-5.
Last time out, at Madison Square Garden against N.Y. Rangers, the Devils as underdogs defeated the Rangers 3-1. The game was an under play.
A game after giving up 9 goals in a loss against Toronto, Steve Stirling expects his defence to clamp down and contain the Devils. If not, don't expect many under players Wednesday.
