Devils lose another overtime tilt

The New Jersey Devils scored the first goal of the game less than a minute into the game and scored the last goal of regulation with under a minute remaining.
In between was a lot of less than scintillating hockey and the Philadelphia Flyers ended it in overtime on a Braden Schenn goal to give Philadelphia a 3-2 win.
Adam Henrique scored in the first period (10) for the Devils,while Michael Ryder tied the game (14) with the goalie pulled,but the Devils a man down,so the goals was considered a shorthanded one.
The loss was the third in a row for New Jersey,who will host Dallas Thursday night...

Hell Raisers

1) Adam Henrique's goal scoring surge continued as he finished a touch off pass off from Ryane Clowe into the net.
Henrique's run of goal scoring will be one that hopefully will not be cooled off by the coming Olympic break.

2) The Devils almost won this game seconds before they lost it as Stephen Gionta smacked a shot off the opposite pipe that looked more like a centering pass.
The puck came very close to going in and Philadelphia would then win the game on the next rush up ice..

3) The Devils did turn around their issues with low shots for the evening as they put 33 on Ray Emery.
Most of them were pedestrian shots dead on center,but it was encouraging to the output raised.

4) Defensively,the Devils were strong other than one breakdown that cost the team a goal.
Marek Zidlicky played the middle man and then handed the Flyers a odd man rush,which handed the goal to Scott Hartnell.
A bad decision by Zidlicky and a costly one..

5) Eric Gelinas returned from Albany,but didn't play.
Not sure what the point of having to have him there was so quickly,if they were just going to scratch him?
Things of late make me wonder just what the thought process of Peter DeBoer is right now...
