Game Preview #69: New Jersey Devils @ Washington Capitals
Tonight, the Devils face Washington for the 3rd time this season
Perhaps if we saw this more often, the Devils might not be in 7th place in the Metro. | Ed Mulholland-Imagn Images The Matchup : New Jersey Devils (35-31-2) @ Washington Capitals (34-27-8) The Time : 7:00 pm EST The Broadcast: MSGSN, Devils Hockey Radio Last Devils Game On Wednesday night, the Devils defeated the Rangers by a score of 6-3 in New York. No, that’s not a typo.
The Devils did defeat the Rangers 6-3 back on March 7th, and they beat them again by the same score on March 18th. That’s 12 goals, in their last 2 games against the Rangers. Yes, the Rangers are awful (still dead last in the East as of 3/18), but beating the Rangers never gets old.
Ever. Jack Hughes and Connor Brown each had a 3 point night, with a goal and 2 assists for each of them. Even Jesper Bratt had a goal, giving him goals in back to back games for the first time since….
