The final score doesn’t exactly indicate it, but the New Jersey Devils played arguably their best game of the season tonight. After suffering a tough loss over the weekend to the Washington Capitals, the Devils dominated the reigning President’s Trophy…
The New Jersey Devils earned a 4-3 home victory over the Colorado Avalanche at the Prudential Center on Tuesday night. New Jersey built a 4-1 lead before conceding two late goals in the final minutes. Luke Evangelista opened the scoring in the first period, while Declan Chisholm, Arseny Gritsyuk, and Jesper Boqvist also scored for the Devils.
Evangelista recorded a goal and an assist in his return from a three-game absence, and Connor Brown registered an assist in his season debut. Goaltender Jake Allen turned aside 31 of 34 shots against former Devils netminder Scott Wedgewood. The victory marked the start of an eight-game stretch against Western Conference opponents for New Jersey.
