NHL Buy/Sell: Fade the Devils, buy the Sabres out of the gates

The NHL season-long market is a good way to identify overvalued or underrated teams. It's also a useful tool for betting.

After taking a look at the betting big picture, here are two teams that are worth circling before the NHL season starts.

The New Jersey Devils finished on 63 points last season. Mackenzie Blackwood and Vitek Vanecek are the team's starting goalkeepers. Dougie Hamilton didn't play well last year. The team is expected to improve in 2021-22. New York opens the season against Philadelphia. The Devils are a favorite to make the playoffs. They are also a good bet to buy the Sabres out of the gates.

Buffalo Sabres are a longshot to make the playoffs. They are not as good as the Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings. The Sabres have a young, hungry roster and they play against the Senators, Panthers and Oilers. The Inquirer is not an online gambling operator, or a gambling site.
