Vegas Golden Knights vs New Jersey Devils Betting Analysis

After a shock 5-2 loss against the Montreal Canadiens last Tuesday as almost -400 favorites, the New Jersey Devils have since bounced back with three straight victories as they roll into Las Vegas on Friday night looking to extend that run against an excellent Golden Knights team in this one.

Vegas for their part had dropped three of their four games before rallying to beat the Carolina Hurricanes on Wednesday with a late game-winning goal from Reilly Smith.

This will be the second and final meeting between the two sides this season after New Jersey took game one up in the Prudential Center with a 3-2 OT win back in January.

Devils Road Form Continues To Impress

With an ultra-impressive 22-4-3 mark on the season so far, it’s no surprise to see the New Jersey Devils rank as the league’s best overall road team this season.

That’s come off the back of a stellar defense for the Devils this year that ranks 5th on goals allowed and 2nd in defensive xGA also.

Vegas Remain Short On Goalies

It’s fair to say the Vegas Golden Knights haven’t exactly enjoyed the best of luck at the goalie position this season, with expected starter Robin Lehner out for the entire season, and both Logan Thompson and Laurent Brossoit out through injuries ahead of this game also.

That leaves Adin Hill as the sole survivor here, at least before former two-time Stanley Cup winner Jonathan Quick is ready to start after the Knights acquired him from the Columbus Blue Jackets in a recent trade deal.

However, it’s no doubt a situation that’s far from ideal for the Knights heading into the business end of the season.

Vegas Golden Knights vs New Jersey Devils Expert Prediction

With all of Vegas’s issues in nets ahead of this game, plus the fact the Knights rank 18th in opponent high-danger conversion percentage this season, we expect the New Jersey Devils to grab the victory in this one on Friday and keep the pressure on the Carolina Hurricanes over in the Metropolitan.

That Devils road record remains extremely impressive and they’ve won 17 of their last 22 starts against teams from the Pacific Division as well.

Take the New Jersey Devils to win on the road on Friday against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Prediction: New Jersey Devils Moneyline -115
