New Jersey Devils vs. Vancouver Canucks preview
The Devils welcome Vancouver to the Prudential Center tonight in what's shaping up to be a crucial matchup for both teams' playoff aspirations.
New Jersey's been flexing their offensive muscle lately, with an impressive 52 power-play goals this season - good for third in the NHL - though their recent 5-3 stumble against Calgary exposed some defensive cracks.
The Canucks roll into Newark looking to shake off a tough 4-3 loss to the Blues, where their power play went cold despite creating decent chances.
Keep your eyes on Jacob Markstrom between the pipes for Vancouver - he's been rock-solid with a .908 career save percentage, but he'll have his hands full against the Devils' high-octane offense that's been peppering goalies with an average of 2,000 shots this season.
The Devils' home-ice advantage at the Rock could be the difference-maker here, especially considering Vancouver's struggled to keep pucks out of their net, allowing 208 goals this season.
This one's got all the makings of a barn-burner, with both teams desperate to bank crucial points as we head into the final stretch of the regular season.
