No. 28: New Jersey Devils

Previous: No. 20

Record:  20-21-9 (49 points)

The Devils had a rough week last week.  They took on some stiff competition in the LA Kings, and the Washington Capitals.  They lost both tilts, and this dropped them quite a bit in the standings.  Four teams in the Eastern Conference all have an identical 49 points, including the Devils’ opponent tonight, the Detroit Red Wings.  If New Jersey can string together a few wins, they could boost their spot in the standings.
