The New Jersey Devils (26-17-6) will look a little bit different when the host the Boston Bruins (23-19-6) on Wednesday.

The Devils and Bruins have similar trajectories of last. Lately, New Jersey has been leaving points on the table. In their last 10 games, the Devils are 2-5-3, whereas the Bruins have a similar 3-5-2 in the same span.
New Jersey, however, is looking to break a losing streak. Boston is instead trying to build on their 6-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday.
On Jacques Lemaire night, the Devils hope to honor their former head coach with a victory.
