Betting insights
- There’s a huge rest discrepancy in tonight’s Devils/Hurricanes game, as New Jersey is playing on a second consecutive night — and for the sixth time this year. Carolina played its first game on Oct. 11 and has been resting at home since.
- Florida manhandled Columbus in all three of their head-to-head matchups last year. The Panthers went 3-0, scored at least four goals each time and averaged 20 more shots per game. Tonight marks the end of a four-game road trip for the Panthers, who beat the Boston Bruins yesterday.
- The Flames are 3-0 and have scored 16 goals already. They face a Blackhawks team that is capping a four-game road trip and lost 1-0 in Calgary a season ago.
- Edmonton has to win at some point … right? The Oilers are the second-heaviest favourites of the night despite being 0-3 with a -12 goal differential to start the new season. And they haven’t even played a road game yet.
