Well after that 5-0 KO, things have changed a bit.. here's my estimated series line now that the Avs took a 1-0 lead:
Colorado -145 (59.5%) MPO: NJ in 7(!)
The Devils are lucky to have a 2 days rest here. But really, after such a blowout in game 1, it doesn't look like it's gonna be easy - no matter how hard they work and how rested they are - and I don't expect them to win in game 2... So despite all my hopes I have on the Devils, to be honest I see a 2-0 Colorado lead after 2 games. You don't win a game 5-0 to lose the next one.
It's a bit early to talk about a sweep though - I see the Devils come back in the series after that... if they play the way they can back in NJ.
