The Anaheim Mighty Ducks visit the New Jersey Devils on Thursday, October 22, 2026. Both teams have similar records, with Anaheim at 4-5 and New Jersey slightly ahead at 5-4. This suggests a fairly even matchup, though the Devils have a slight edge in wins.
Looking at the betting lines, New Jersey is the favorite on the moneyline at -198, meaning you’d need to bet $198 to win $100. Anaheim is the underdog at +164, so a $100 bet would win $164 if they pull off the upset. This shows the market favors the Devils to win straight up.
The spread is set at 1.5 goals. The Ducks are +1.5 at -148, so betting on Anaheim to lose by one goal or less, or win outright, requires risking $148 to win $100. The Devils are -1.5 at +124, meaning a $100 bet wins $124 if New Jersey wins by two or more goals. The odds suggest the Devils might win but not necessarily by a large margin.
The total is 6.5 goals, with equal odds of -110 on over or under. This indicates the sportsbook expects a moderately high-scoring game, but the market is balanced on whether it goes over or under that mark.
In summary, New Jersey is the favorite but not a heavy one. The spread and moneyline reflect a competitive game. The total suggests both teams could put up some offense. Betting on the Ducks to cover the +1.5 spread offers some value if you expect a close game.
