Montreal Canadiens vs New Jersey Devils Prediction: the Devils Victory

Prediction for the NHL Montreal Canadiens vs New Jersey Devils match which will take place on March 12th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

Montreal has given up. The team has no chances for the playoffs because it is in 15th place in the East standings and last in the Atlantic Division with 58 points - everything is sad. Also, the Canadiens' results have worsened – five defeats in a row. Although in the previous two matches, Montreal finished the game with a shootout – 3:4 with Carolina and the Rangers.

New Jersey is having an excellent season. The team will need more time to qualify for the Stanley Cup seriously. For a long time, the Devils have been third in the Eastern Conference standings and second in the Metropolitan Division. They have 90 points in their assets. Notably, in seven previous meetings, New Jersey had only one defeat in regular time. In addition, the team has five wins and one loss by a shootout. They beat Washington (3:2) in a shootout in the last match.

New Jersey should be preferred for this match. Montreal has been showing unfortunate results lately – five defeats in a row. They don't have any chance of the playoffs. Everything is more or less okay with the Devils. The guests need a victory more, they are doing great morally, and they play hockey better. In general, we suggest betting on their success.
