Our Devils vs Red Wings prediction game is tonight, the NHL schedule has the New Jersey Devils, and Detroit Red Wings meeting at Little Caesars Arena, two Eastern Conference teams hoping to gain some momentum for a boost in the NHL standings will face off.
In their last two games, the Devils have earned three out of a possible four points, and on New Year’s Day, they battled the unbeatable Carolina Hurricanes all the way to a shootout.
However, New Jersey has only won two of its last 11 games following a scorching-hot start to the season. The Red Wings have won three of their previous five games, but overall, they have been 5-7-3 since Thanksgiving. These NHL games have not been fun to watch recently because of getting beat every other night.
The New Jersey Devils have had a great season so far and are looking to continue this hot streak through this game. The Devils have a lot of key players that allow them to have this season that they are having right now, and I do not believe that the Wings will be able to stop them tonight.
