The New Jersey Devils are going through their worst stretch of the season right now and they've been horrible in the underdog role dating back to last season. The Pittsburgh Penguins continue to quietly play solid hockey and they've been dominant in the favorite role all season long. The Penguins have also won four of the six meetings against the Devils this season, which includes three wins this month alone. Only option here is to take the Penguins and the PL for max betting value.
