Every single team in the NHL has their own strengths and weaknesses, with some of them being a little more visible than others. The goal is to have enough positives so that the flaws can be overlooked by NHL lines fans. It’s a balance that sometimes goes the other way for a few teams destined to struggle. One of those teams this season may well be the New Jersey Devils, and they have another tough match-up on Tuesday when they welcome in the Nashville Predators.

This season seems destined to be a tough one for the New Jersey Devils, as they are a team very much in the rebuilding phase. The Devils are looking to build from the defensive side up, and they made a great addition when they acquired goalie Cory Schneider. He is going to shoulder a lot of the work this year, and it could be a long one for him of the defense doesn’t find a way to tighten things up a little.

Defense and goaltending has not been an issue for the Nashville Predators through their first 2 games of the year. Pekka Rinne has been magnificent between the pipes, stopping 56 of 57 shots, including a great shutout display against the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday.
The Predators needed those great efforts, as they have not exactly been lighting it up offensively. 2 goals per game may be enough against the likes of Carolina and Edmonton, but they are going to need a whole lot more when they start to run into the better teams in the league. Nashville has only managed a total of 51 shots through the opening 2 games, so they really need to start creating more scoring opportunities in order to get the offensive stats looking a little healthier.
Key Betting Trends
- New Jersey is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games
- Nashville is 3-10 SU in its last 13 games
- The total has gone OVER in 5 of Nashville’s last 7 games
Consider This Before Placing Your Bet
The schedule maker has been pretty kind to Nashville to start the season, as this is another game they should win comfortably. I think they will do just that, and I believe that the offense will open up a little more in this one.
