Devils vs Stars Prediction
You can make a case for the Devils with the week they’re having, but for me I’m not getting enough bang for my buck. The Stars have found their rhythm as well, and you usually don’t get them at prices this cheap when they’re rolling, especially at home. The Devils also still have to prove themselves on the road, as 6 of their 7 wins this season have come on their home ice. The price is low. I’m rolling with the Stars on Tuesday night.
