New Jersey at Tampa Bay

In a matchup between last season's Eastern Conference quarterfinalists, we like the home team looking to revenge their playoff series loss. The Devils have a new head coach in Brent Sutter and they lost Scott Gomez and Brian Ralfalski to free agency during the off-season. Tampa can score and should again have a lot of offense. They look to Johan Holmqvist, who replaced Marc Denis between the pipes last season, to shore up their netminding. We like Tampa's motivation here and the generous 2.35 to 1 payout for a 2-goal victory.
