Prediction: New Jersey Devils +2.5 · Handicap. Estimated probability: 77.5 %, based on market odds. No stake: this probability does not justify a bet at the available odds.
Read the full analysisNHL regular-season ice hockey game, Devils at Avalanche at Ball Arena in Denver, on October 29, 2026 at 01:00 UTC. Colorado is coming off a 6-2 loss in Nashville on October 25, following a 4-3 loss at New Jersey on October 20; its complete sequence remains to be confirmed.
New Jersey was 7-4-0 before Dallas and had won five of its last six games. The result against Dallas and the associated workload remain unknown.
Only one recent head-to-head is documented: New Jersey beat Colorado 4-3 on October 20, 2026. Colorado had scored twice through Artturi Lehkonen and pushed late in the game despite the loss.
This small sample, played nine days before the second matchup, greatly limits its prédictive valeur; it does not establish sustained dominance.
Colorado can leverage its home-ice advantage, its offensive core centered around Nathan MacKinnon, and its défense led by Cale Makar; the team had been the NHL’s best offense the previous season with 298 goals. Conversely, New Jersey can rely on five wins in its last six games, a structure that limited Anaheim to 16 shots and Los Angeles to 13, as well as 59.6% of five-on-five shot attempts early in the season, with 35 shots on goal per game compared with 25.1 allowed.
Colorado scenario: its offensive volume and late push in the first matchup could make the difference if the goaltender and the top lines are available. New Jersey scenario: its defensive control and the psychological edge from the 4-3 victory could carry weight, especially if Colorado is still struggling with its loss in Nashville.
The main limitation is the uncertainty surrounding the goaltenders, updated absences, and the result in Dallas.
The final lineups and starting goaltenders are not confirmed. Lineup information published on October 20 cannot be automatically extrapolated to the October 28 game in local time.
