The New Jersey Devils have had a tough week. They’ve gone winless in their first two games and look to get their first of the roadtrip in Winnipeg against the Jets.
Offensively, both the Devils and Jets have been below average. The Jets’ power play is also below-average, but New Jersey’s is much worse, one of the absolute worst in the league.
Defensively, the Jets are much better than the Devils, who have an average to slightly below-average blueline.
The penalty kill is where the Devils have Winnipeg beat. They’ve improved dramatically while shorthanded and are currently above average in that regard, while Winnipeg’s penalty kill is one of the very worst in the game.
