St. Louis Blues @ New Jersey Devils

Hughes powered Tuesday’s Devils win

Jack Hughes recorded two goals and an assist in New Jersey’s 4-3 shootout win over Edmonton. A Nov. 4 podcast recommended New Jersey’s Jack Hughes line as a low-owned pivot against Edmonton.

Blues’ power play needs a response

St. Louis went 0-for-6 on the power play in Tuesday’s 3-1 loss to the Rangers.

Blue-line availability remains a question

Colton Parayko is day-to-day and was not ready to return as of Nov. 3, so his status remains worth monitoring before puck drop.

Projected goalies, not confirmed starters

Joel Hofer and Connor Hellebuyck remain projections for this matchup; Hofer was confirmed to start against the Rangers and Hellebuyck against Edmonton in their most recent games.

Pick Ideas

Angles drawn from the matchup analysis above and refreshed as the news changes. They are a separate read from the LineCrush pick for this matchup, so the two can land on different sides.

Over 5.5 goals

Over 5.5 is available around -122; recent scoring and goals-against trends support the threshold, but the price favors a modest stake.

Blues moneyline as a small underdog shot

At about +160, St. Louis is a speculative value look: one published model puts the Blues at 43.4% to win versus roughly 38.5% implied. Keep it a small-stake play.
