Montreal then turned the jets on and swiftly ended the game with three goals and a 6-2 win at the Forum in Montreal.
Mike Cammalleri (18) and Jacob Josefson (3) scored for New Jersey.
Recap below.I'm about to be sick.
Hell Raisers
1) Keith Kinkaid deserved better than a six goal inflation to his GAA.
Kinkaid faced another barrage of shots as Cory Schnieder has of late and Kinkaid made some dynamite saves.
Don't blame number one-without him this might have been an 11-2 game.
2) Credit to Tuomo Ruutu for hitting Jacob Josefson in stride for a backhand that beat Carey Price,
The play was made by Ruutu and it was nice to see Josefson finish the play.
That's about all the good news I have for tonight.
3) Dumbest penalty that I've seen in a while-Dainius Zubrus and his high stick off a faceoff that resulted in a double minor and two resulting Canadien goals.
I'm really weary of Zubrus,who only appears most of the time to make a colossal error.
4) The Devils did get over 20 shots in a rare change (22),but allowed 38 in what is becoming a shooting gallery against the Devils goaltenders.
That ratio is very indicative of a bad hockey team.
Not average,not mediocre.Bad.
5) I'd ramble more on defensive mistakes,but I'm just tired of it.
The losing streak was one built on a mirage.
That's what happens when you get a homestand filled with other crappy teams and get some wins.
Home ice can make that much of a difference with other crappy teams.
Watch what happens against good teams and then wonder-bet on lots of nights like tonight
