There’s hockey on this Sunday, as the Ottawa Senators hope to extend their point streak to five games Sunday, after enjoying plenty of rest through the Christmas holiday, as they host the struggling New Jersey Devils.
Both teams are rather polarizing, as the Senators have been surging as of late and the Devils have looked very different since moving Taylor Hall. I think this is going to turn out to be a better game than expected.

New Jersey Devils
The Devils have lost three of four after falling 5-4 against Toronto at home on Friday when defenseman Damon Severson scored into his own net while trying to clear a puck to the back boards in overtime.
Offensively the Devils have been doing enough to win games as of late. Palmieri scored four of his team-high 15 goals and added three assists over the last six games to top New Jersey with 26 points – three of them coming on Friday.
Nico Hischier also had three points in Friday’s setback and 27-year-old rookie left wing Nikita Gusev scored once while setting up six other goals in the past five games to tie the 20-year-old Swiss center for second on the team among active skaters with 21 points.
In net they have been relying on Mackenzie Blackwood. Blackwood is 3-1-1 in his last five games and owns a .923 save percentage in December after finishing the first two months with an .898 mark.
Ottawa Senators
The Senators are 2-0-2 in their last four games and own at least a point in eight of the past 10 contests (5-2-3) after knocking off Buffalo 3-1 on Monday before the break with two goals from Jean-Gabriel Pageau. Ottawa has improved to 15-12-3 since a 1-6-1 start.
The Senators are 11-5-1 at the Canadian Tire Centre, including 4-0-1 in the last five, and won the first of three meetings with the Devils 4-2 on Nov. 13 in New Jersey with a hat trick from Pageau.
The offense for the Senators has been impressive to say the least. They have been getting great production from former cast offs. Left wing Anthony Duclair boasts 11 of his career-high 21 goals in 11 games this month to lead the team and Pageau’s two goals against Buffalo gave him 18.
In net they will turn to Craig Anderson. Craig Anderson (6-8-0 overall) made 43 saves in the win over Buffalo on Monday and owns a .947 SP in his last five games.

Free New Jersey Devils vs. Ottawa Senators NHL Prediction:
I for one see a lot of potential in this game as a bettor. The money lines are pretty close, but I think I’m looking at the over here. Both teams have offenses that can light it up on any given night, and they are opposed by two goalies who have been inconsistent on the season.
