New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction & Picks (Jamie Drysdale Key Factor): Winning Game Angles

The odds for the Philadelphia Flyers to win are looking pretty tasty at +150. Our numbers say this matchup is nearly even, which makes this bet a solid option. The Flyers have been scoring about 2.93 goals per game, just a bit below the league average, but they've also kept their opponents from scoring a lot, allowing only 25.5 shots each game. That's pretty good for a tight game. The real risk here is that both teams are close in performance, so it could easily go either way. Still, at +150, this bet has a nice value to it!

New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers: Under 5.5 Total Goals (+100)

The New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia Flyers both have had pretty similar seasons when it comes to scoring. The Devils score an average of about 2.76 goals a game, while the Flyers are just a bit better at 2.93. This matchup is set to take place at the Prudential Center, where teams often struggle to find the back of the net. Both teams have also been solid defensively. The Devils allow just 27.4 shots per game, and the Flyers let in the same amount. With both squads showing they can keep the score low, betting on under 5.5 total goals feels like a smart choice. Just keep in mind that with their scoring so close, it could easily go the other way.

New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers: Philadelphia Flyers 3rd Period Moneyline (+128)

You can get the Philadelphia Flyers to win the third period at plus money, which is pretty appealing. Both the Flyers and the Devils have been around the same level in recent games, and our numbers see this matchup as nearly even. The Flyers have scored a bit more lately, averaging 2.93 goals a game, while the Devils are at 2.76. Plus, the Flyers have been steady on defense, allowing the same number of shots as they take. This could be a good spot for them to shine in the final period.

New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers: Jake Allen Over 22.5 Saves (-110)

The odds on Jake Allen making over 22.5 saves look promising. The New Jersey Devils usually shoot the puck a lot, averaging nearly 30 shots a game this season. They score a bit less than the league average, which suggests they might be taking more shots but not finishing many. This could lead to Allen facing a busy night in goal. The Philadelphia Flyers, on the other hand, have a habit of allowing a decent number of shots while scoring just below the league average. While the two teams are quite close in their performance overall, the risk is that Allen might not see as many shots if the Flyers manage to keep possession. Still, with the Devils firing away at goal, Allen should have plenty of chances to rack up those saves.

New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers: Jack Hughes Over 3.5 Shots on Goal (-118)

Jack Hughes has been playing well, and he's an important part of the New Jersey Devils' offense. The team averages almost 30 shots a game, which shows they like to shoot often. Hughes is likely to be involved in many of those attacks. The Flyers are allowing about the same number of shots as they take, so there should be chances for Hughes to get his shots off. The risk here is that it's a pretty tight matchup, and both teams are fairly evenly matched in how many goals they score. Still, Hughes has the skills to break through, and with his recent form, betting on him to get over 3.5 shots feels like a solid move.

New Jersey Devils vs Philadelphia Flyers: Jack Hughes Over 1.5 Points (+175)

Jack Hughes has been showing some great form lately, and he's a key player for the New Jersey Devils. With the Devils scoring an average of 2.76 goals per game this season, Hughes has plenty of chances to rack up points. Plus, the Flyers have been tight defensively but still allow a good number of shots on goal. Betting on Hughes to get over 1.5 points feels like a solid choice here. The competition is close, so there's a real chance he could end up with just one point. Still, with his talent and the Devils' scoring opportunities, this bet has a good shot at paying off.
