| NHL | (37) Ottawa Senators at (38) New Jersey Devils | 7:07pm EDT - Apr 12/2026 |
The PLAY: Over +6 (-115)
I am looking for a loose, up-and-down game between the Senators and Devils. The pressure is off the Senators after they clinched a playoff berth on Saturday.
The Devils are playing with a nothing-to-lose mentality. They eliminated the Red Wings, 5-3, at Detroit yesterday. It was the 15th time in their last 21 games that the Devils have scored at least three goals.
The Senators have scored three or more goals in eight of their last 10 games. They are averaging five goals per game in their last four games. The Devils have a below average defense and will be starting third string goalie Nico Daws, who has made only one start this season.
Ottawa is projected to start back-up James Reimer in net.
(Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 30-14-2 on his last 46 NHL premium/free plays and 27-13 on his last 40 NBA premium/free plays. Stephen has an NBA Big Ticket today along with this free selection.)
