A fantastic East vs West showdown is set for Wednesday night when the New Jersey Devils (83 points) visit the Colorado Avalanche (73 points). New Jersey is second in the Metropolitan and are right on the tails of the first place Hurricanes. Colorado is second in the Central but it’s tight and they are just two points out of first and two points ahead of fourth. Below is my NHL betting pick for Devils vs Avalanche.
