Today's NHL Picks
Jesper Bratt has been a priority target for me all season long – especially in the assist market – and there is no reason to get away from that. With the Boston Bruins being a defensive disaster right now, they rank dead last in shot suppression and goals against during the month of January. They are giving up quality and quantity and the goals are flowing for opponents as a result. This is the perfect matchup for a struggling New Jersey Devils team to break out of their funk and get back on track offensively. Look for Bratt to be one of the players leading the charge.
