Make this an all star weekend event
Nothing better than an hour and a half commute home after a 7:30pm puck drop.
The two points make the trip home that much sweeter ๐๐ฅ

The boys rallied around the Marky injury tonight and dominated the second half of that game.
Allen looked locked in with crisp movement in relief.
Hoping for a grade 2 knee sprain at the worst, recovery time is usually 3-6 weeks.
#NJDevils
Obviously, we await for news on Jacob Markstrom, but Jake Allen was very good after taking over.
Allen made 16/16 saves and stopped 2.11 goals above expected. #NJDevils
Fitzy needs to shake up this current roster.
With our insane defensive depth, I can see him moving a D man + prospect or pick for a legit goal scorer/sniper in return.
#NJDevils
Been MIA recently with the busy holiday season and end of year work schedule.
The last two games have shown how dominant this team can be. Should have had all 4 points this week it wasn't for getting goalie'd on Tuesday.
Shots: 65-30
xG: 8.07-3.91
Goals:4-3

The Devils now sit 5th in the league at both points (38) and point percetnage (.655).
It has been nice to see that even with the games at hand disavantage the team has been able to keep their postion at the top of the league.

Another poor power play effort from the first unit
Another multi point game for Jack & Bratt ๐ฅ
Best duo in the league
Larson scoring for the Devils one more time at the Rock.
Bratt will get the goal in his 200th career game
Shane Wright left all alone back door puts the Kraken ahead again with a PPG
Time for the red hot power play to go to work ๐ฅ
An absolute snipe by Luke to get his first goal of the season.
Assisted by Jack ๐
Marsktrom gets beat over his shoulder, and the Kraken go up 1-0.
Dougies 800th NHL game tonight ๐

Thank you!
Just gettting started, if theres anything you'd like to see written up, please let me know!
I think every goalie in the league is expecting a pass or a shot high.
Bratt did a great job reading what Igor was giving and executing on it.

Instead, Bratt opens the blade quickly to shoot with the 6 ending in the closed blade position.
This move caused Igor to pick up the shot a split second too late, and the puck went in under Igors right pad before he could seal the ice.

I wanted to break down how good Bratts' goal was.
He is coming in on a 2 v 1 with his blade closed and his head looking over at Jack.
Igor is reading all this information and is expecting Bratt to pass or fake the pass, then shoot.

Goals Saved Above Expected Tonight:
Markstrom: +3.46
Shesterkin: -0.13
It's a wonderful feeling having a goalie who can steal games again
#NJDevils
Shots were 10-2 Rangers in the third.
Rangers had an expected goal of .873 in the third compared to our .586.
I think the Rangers were just desperate to get the puck to the front of the net and threw shots on goal from everywhere
Devils win 5-1 ๐ฅ
Three Stars of The Game:
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ - Hughes 2G 1A
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธ - Bratt 1G 3A
โญ๏ธ - Markstrom 40 Saves
Devils have been on cruise control this entire period.
Content with possession and eating time ling dumps and a few icings.
Time to make it out of the final minutes without a goal against or any injuries ๐
