I’m not excited to back either the Canucks or Devils in their current form, but somebody has to win. The Devils have been the better team this season and they’re at home, so they have to have the edge. The Devils have also won eight of the last 10 games against the Canucks, which includes a 6-0 win back in October. The Devils have scored at least four goals in six of the last seven games against the Canucks. The Canucks have lost four of their last six games as an underdog. Give me the Devils on Monday night.
