The New Jersey Devils (35-32-2) continue their road trip tonight against the Dallas Stars (43-16-11) who have already punched their ticket to the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Stars are certainly banged up, missing the services of Mikko Rantanen, Tyler Seguin, and Roope Hintz to name a few.
However, the juggernaut Stars are still 6-2-2 in their last 10 games, and show no signs of slowing down.
For the Devils, who have been wildly inconsistent this season, it could be a rough night, or a pleasant surprise.
Let’s dive into tonight’s matchup.
