Las Vegas - Gonna lace up the skates tonight in New Jersey and take the Devils over the Blues. Jersey has been on fire, winning three in a row, five of the last six, eight of the last 10 and 10 of the last 13. They've also been finding the net a bunch and have outscored the opposition 46-26. The calculator tells me that's a PLUS 20 goal differential. St. Louis fired its coach, Drew Bannister, and replaced him with Jim Montgomery. Of course the Blues had some serious jump in the first game for Montgomery, and whipped the Rangers 5-2. And just getting a new coach doesn't automatically make the team better. St. Loo has won only three of the last 11 and will not have any answers against the red hot Devils.
