Money Line: -173.00 New Jersey (Home)
Result: Win
The Devils couldn't get there in their first game under their new interim coach. They were playing the Florida Panthers though and the Panthers are one of the best and hottest teams in hockey. Today's matchup against the St. Louis Blues is far more favorable.

The Blues only score 2.5 goals per game when they play on the road. They allow 3.2 That's exactly how many (3.2) goals that the Devils score at home. The Devils are a perfect 3-0 this season, when off 3 consecutive losses. They won by scores of 3-2, 5-2 and 7-2. Look for them to limit the Blues scoring opportunities and for them to win their first game of the post-Ruff era.
