This is a 6* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the New Jersey Devils.

REASONING: These are two teams desperate for victories, but the Devils are vastly superior in every respect and play with the home ice advantage tonight. In our opinion, this one is a no-brainer as we believe the home side should in fact be a much larger fav in this spot. The Avs are coming off a third straight loss and eighth in their last ten with a 5-1 road setback to the Isles on Sunday. The Devils most recently had their two game win streak snapped with a 4-1 loss to the Sharks at home on Sunday. Colorado ranks last in goals allowed with an average of 3.4 per night and the Devils will be looking to take advantage and avoid falling to .500 with a win tonight. Note that the Avs are just 5-22 in their last 27 when playing on one days rest, while the Devils are 4-1 in their last five following a home loss of three or more goals. Lay the price with confidence, play on NEW JERSEY.
