#6 ASA PLAY ON 8* Philadelphia Flyers +115 on the Money Line over New Jersey Devils, Thursday at 7:05 PM ET - These two teams finished with nearly identical records in the standings last season. Even though the Devils are projected to, and should, be the better team this season this will not be an easy game for them. Flyers will be fired up at home and under their new head coach John Tortorella. He is a veteran head coach that demands effort on the ice and could be the "kick in the pants" this team needed. Philly being at home here is also key as goalie Carter Hart has had stronger numbers overall on home ice in comparison with road starts throughout his career. Look for the Flyers to surprise here and we love fading the line move in games like this where the line has swung so much. Philly opened as a small favorite and now the Devils are as high as a -135 favorite. If this game was in New Jersey we would feel differently but Philadelphia is going to have a ton of emotion and effort for their first game of the season on home ice and we look for Hart to have a big game between the pipes too. We think we’re getting some nice value getting this underdog at +115 in this one on home ice with the Flyers.
