Columbus Blue Jackets vs New Jersey Devils Prediction and Betting Tips (09.01.2022)

Command Analysis

Columbus Blue Jackets

USA

Columbus are on a string of three defeats. The Blue Jackets were recently crushed by Carolina (4:7) and Tampa (2:7) - goalies Tarasov and Korpisalo failed to save their team from devastating defeats, and the defensive line was unable to help them, allowing the opponents to take too many shots on goal.

The Jackets also lost to New Jersey (1:3) away from home. They made 32 shots, but only one of them was successful. Today Columbus will be looking to get their revenge.

New Jersey Devils

USA

New Jersey broke their losing streak and started showing decent results. The Devils lost only one game out of five, to Boston (3:5). Goalie Blackwood didn't have a good game against the Bruins and saved only 85% of the shots. New Jersey also experienced problems against Edmonton and Washington, but managed to snatch victories in overtime.

The Devils delivered a great performance against Columbus, in particular, striker Hughes, who scored a goal and gave two assists. It seems that the Devils have recovered from their dip in form and can strengthen their standings in the near future.
