New Jersey Devils vs New York Islanders Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/23/25

The New Jersey Devils will be visiting the New York Islanders on Tuesday to play their final game before the holiday break. The Devils received a large boost to their lineup on Sunday as they had superstar forward Jack Hughes return to the lineup. Along with him came Timo Meier. These 2 players are key members of their offense put this team back into playoff contention. Hughes had a goal in his first game back and still inside the top 5 in team scoring despite playing half of the games. They will be going up against a divisional opponent in the Islanders, with 2 important points on the line. Luckily for the Devils, they won’t be seeing Ilya Sorokin in goal as David Rittich is projected to get the start.

The Islanders have been reeling a bit and are coming into this game riding a three-game losing streak. Things won’t get any easier going up against this rejuvenated Devils team. This is going to be a solid game, but I will be siding with the road team in this one. Give me the Devils on the money line.
