“Let’s Go Devils!” and “Let’s Go Rangers!” chants echoed throughout the Prudential Center during the opening 30 seconds Thursday night, setting the stage for a heated matchup between the New Jersey Devils and New York Rangers.
The New Jersey Devils routed the New York Rangers 7-1 at the Prudential Center on Thursday night, powered by a balanced offensive onslaught and goaltender Nico Daws' first win of the season. Daws stopped 18 of 19 shots in the victory, while Luke Hughes led the scoring with two goals. Evan Rodrigues opened the scoring late in the first period before New Jersey pulled away with four goals in the second period.
Nico Hischier, Arseny Gritsyuk, Stefan Noesen, and Cody Glass also scored for New Jersey, with Hischier recording his 203rd career goal to claim third place in franchise history. Pavel Dorofeyev scored the lone goal for the Rangers on a third-period power play. The dominant victory marked the 300th career NHL coaching win for Devils head coach Sheldon Keefe.
