NHL | (55) New Jersey Devils at (56) Philadelphia Flyers | 7:07pm EST - Nov 30/2023 |
The PLAY: New Jersey Devils -150
Offensive Breakdown:
New Jersey Devils: The Devils have been showing a strong offensive performance recently, scoring three or more goals in seven of their last ten games. They rank fifth in goals per game and fifth in shots per game, indicating a potent and efficient attack. Key players like Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt have been instrumental, with Hughes leading the team with 26 points. This offensive prowess could be a significant factor in overcoming the Flyers' defense.
Philadelphia Flyers: Philadelphia's offense has been less efficient, with the team scoring two or fewer goals in half of their last ten games. They rank 24th in goals per game, despite being sixth in shots per game, suggesting a struggle in converting shots into goals. Travis Konecny, tied for the team lead with 16 points, could play a crucial role in boosting their offensive output against the Devils.
Defensive Breakdown:
New Jersey Devils: The Devils' defense has been average, but their goaltending has been a concern. They rank 28th in goals against per game but are better in limiting shots, ranking eighth in shots against per game. Goaltenders Vitek Vanecek and Akira Schmid have had challenges, with Vanecek's goals against average (GAA) at 3.49 and Schmid's at 3.02. Their performance could be a deciding factor in this matchup.
Philadelphia Flyers: Philadelphia has been stronger defensively, ranking 11th in goals against per game and second in shots against per game. Their goaltending, led by Carter Hart with a 2.57 GAA and .911 save percentage, has been more reliable. This solid defensive foundation could be key in countering the Devils' offensive threats.
Prediction:
The Devils' scoring ability gives them the edge in this matchup. The Flyers' defense is solid, but their inability to score will be a problem.
The Flyers' struggle to convert shots into goals could be their undoing unless they manage to significantly improve their finishing overnight. The goaltending matchup also favors Philadelphia, but the Devils' offensive firepower might be too much to handle.
Projected Score:
New Jersey Devils: 4 - Philadelphia Flyers: 2
