Before the start the best price on New Jersey Devils to win had drifted from 1.795 to 1.805, so the market moved away from this pick after it was published.

Analysis

New Jersey Devils are the market favourite against Utah Mammoth in the NHL on 6 October 2026, priced at 1.795 against 2.016. With the margin removed, that gives an implied chance of 52.9% for New Jersey Devils and 47.1% for Utah Mammoth.

We hold no head-to-head record. Utah Mammoth won both of their recent games, against Columbus Blue Jackets on 3 October 2026 and Chicago Blackhawks on 2 October 2026. New Jersey Devils won 3 of 4, their one defeat coming against New York Islanders on 3 October 2026.

We pick New Jersey Devils to win at 52% confidence. Recent results lean to Utah Mammoth, so the market chance of 52.9% was lowered by 0.8 points. As we cannot see the line-ups or the goaltenders, and Utah Mammoth come into the game in good form, this is a narrow favourite rather than a strong one.
