Devils Looking Forward to 2024-25 Season
Going into the 2024-25 NHL season, the New Jersey Devils have massive aspirations, starting with today's Devils vs Sabres matchup from Prague. The Devils are one of the three favorites to come away with the Metro Division title this year along with the New York Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes. To get off to a good start this season, the Devils will hope that they can overcome their injury situation, as players like Jack Hughes look to successfully return from injuries that held this team back a season ago.
Can Sabres Offense Take Leap In Opener?
Last season was a disappointment for the Buffalo Sabres, as their offense took a step backward from the season before that. This year, they will look to get back on track on the attack without losing any of their defensive edge. Here, they face a tough test right off the bat against a Devils team expected to do good things in the year to come. But Buffalo should not be counted out in this contest as they have a healthy Tage Thompson once again and will look to ride him to a season-opening win.
Devils vs Sabres Prediction
Our best bet for Friday's Devils vs Sabres matchup is for the New Jersey Devils to win on the moneyline. Buffalo is a team we don't trust based on their recent history, while the Devils are a team that could make a deep run in the playoffs this year. Go with the Devils in this NHL season opener from Czechia, which should be a fun event on Friday afternoon.
