The Devils are primed to halt their three-game losing streak after falling in overtime to the Predators on Thursday. New Jersey should have a lot of focus knowing they go on the road for seven straight away games following this one. The Devils have the better offense and goalie. They are 8-3 in their last 11 home games.

The Panthers face a fatigue factor. Because of the very early start time, this is almost like playing a third game in four days for them. They also have a trip to Finland looming so their concentration may be off.
