NHL Predictions<\/h2>\n

New Jersey Devils vs Colorado Avalanche<\/h3>\n

Head-to-Head: Devils 0-1 Avalanche<\/h4>\n

Time:<\/strong> 9:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

TV:<\/strong> MSGSN; Altitude; KTVD; ESPN+<\/p>\n

Game one of this round of NHL predictions has the New Jersey Devils<\/a> visiting the Colorado Avalanche<\/a>. Jake Allen<\/a> is the expected starter for New Jersey, which is 6-4 in the last 10 games. However, always check social media before locking in a daily fantasy starter in between the pipes. The Devils do have a three-game road winning streak. Seamus Casey<\/a> has been playing well as of late with four goals and one assist over the last 10 games for New Jersey.<\/p>\n

Mackenzie Blackwood<\/a> is the projected starter for Colorado and could face his former team once again. He played for the Devils for a few seasons, but is now in the opposite crease. The Avalanche are 5-5 in the last 10 games, but have dropped their last two prior to this game. Cale Makar<\/a> is averaging over a point a game with six goals and five assists over the past 10 games for the Avs.<\/p>\n

Both teams are trying to get some traction, but Colorado gets the win.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Avalanche win 5-3.<\/em><\/p>\n

Vancouver Canucks vs\u00a0Los Angeles Kings<\/h3>\n

Head-to-Head: Canucks 1-1 Kings<\/h4>\n

Time:<\/strong> 10 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

TV:<\/strong> Sportsnet; TNT; TruTV; Max<\/p>\n

The last game<\/a> of NHL predictions has the Los Angeles Kings<\/a> hosting the Vancouver Canucks<\/a>. Kevin Lankinen<\/a> is the likely starter for the Canucks, who are 6-3-1 in the last 10 games. However, Vancouver has lost the last two games entering this one. Brock Boeser<\/a> has tallied 18 goals and 17 assists for the Canucks.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles is expected to go with Darcy Kuemper<\/a> in the crease for this game. The Kings are 5-3-2 in the last 10 games and this includes winning the last two games. Kevin Fiala<\/a> is continuing his red-hot paces with eight goals and four assists over the last 10 games for Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Vancouver had been playing better, but Los Angeles seals up a home win. This is the final regular season meeting between the two teams. However, it may be possible these two clubs run into each other in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Kings win 4-3.<\/em><\/p>\n
