Brodeur Records 120th Career Shutout in NJ Devils Home Opener

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2013

The New Jersey Devils are off to a hot start in the lockout-shortened NHL season and last night star goaltender Martin Brodeur kept the hot streak going by shutting out the rival Philadelphia Flyers, 3-0.

The game was the home opener for the Devils who are now 2-0 to stand tied atop the Atlantic Division with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Brodeur made some spectacular stops to hold on to the shutout and the Prudential Center crowd loved every minute of it.

Backed by goals from Travis Zajac, David Clarkson and one on a penalty shot by Ilya Kovalchuk, Brodeur had more than enough of a lead to gain the victory.

Next up for the Devils at the Prudential Center are the Washington Capitals. Led by superstar Alexander Ovechkin, offensive defenseman Mike Green and prolific center Nicklas Backstrom, the Capitals are going to pose quite a challenge for the Devils and their strong team defense displayed this far.

Great tickets remain available for this and most Devils games at the Prudential Center. While the team is hot, why not head over to SelectATicket.com and pick out a few games to enjoy?

Los Angeles Kings Defeat New Jersey Devils for the Stanley Cup

Tuesday, June 12th, 2012

In a hotly contested series, the Los Angeles Kings capped off their unlikely playoff run with the first Stanley Cup championship in franchise history.

Entering the NHL in the very first expansion year of 1968, the Kings fans have waited a long time to see their team win the most famous trophy in all of sports.

Jumping out to a 3-0 series lead, the Kings put New Jersey in a hole they could not climb out of, but the Devils gave it their all. Winning games 4 and 5, the Devils laid it all on the line and their fans should be proud of the effort put forth by their team.

Los Angeles entered the playoffs as the number 8 seed in the West and New Jersey was the number 6 seed in the East. Proving once again that it doesn’t matter where you finish in the regular season, just as long as you reach the playoffs you have a shot at the Cup.

Star goalie Jonathan Quick was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as the Most Valuable Player of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. His heroics in net allowed the Kings to play their attacking style because they knew he had their backs when things tilted the other way.

The Devils fought hard and gave the Kings all they could handle but in Game 6, Devils forward Steve Bernier put his team down a man for 5 minutes when he was called for boarding. The Kings went on to score three times on the power play and the lead was enough for them to win the game. A variety of other breakdowns and an empty net goal resulted in a 6-1 Stanley Cup clinching victory for the Kings.

The Devils will be back next season though and the outlook is promising. Coming off their Stanley Cup run it is clear the team is strong. Goaltender Martin Brodeur will return as will several of their top players. The biggest question mark is what will captain Zach Parise do regarding his future — he’s scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1st. However, Devils GM Lou Lamoriello always gets his man! If he wants Parise back, chances are he’ll find a way to lock his captain up to a long term deal. Assuming they secure Parise, there’s no reason the Devils cannot repeat as Eastern Conference champions and challenge for the Stanley Cup next season.

NJ Devils Solidify Playoff Seeding with Win vs Detroit

Friday, April 6th, 2012

The New Jersey Devils assured themselves of the 6th seed in the Eastern conference when they defeated the Detroit Red Wings last night, 2-1. Combined with Philadelphia’s defeat of Buffalo, it means the Devils cannot move higher or fall lower than 6th place with only one game remaining in the regular season.

The Devils faceoff against the Ottawa Senators in a 3pm start at Prudential Center tomorrow afternoon.

The Devils will open the playoffs on the road against the #3 seed in the East which is yet to be determined. That spot will go to the Southeast conference winner which is still up for grabs between the Florida Panthers and Washington Capitals.

The Capitals play the Rangers on Saturday and Carolina visits Florida in the final games for all teams involved. So it will truly come down to the bitter end to see who the New Jersey Devils will face in the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs.

Either opponent poses interesting challenges. The Florida Panthers are in the playoffs for the first time in 10 years after under-going a major overhaul orchestrated by GM Dale Tallon. Tallon purged the team of many players and contracts heading into the past off-season and entered the free agency period with money to spend just to get to the salary cap floor.

The result is a team that has gone from the basement to challenging for 3rd in the East, quite a rebound from a year ago. They are not to be taken lightly.

The Washington Capitals have had their troubles this year including firing head coach Bruce Boudreau. However they are finally getting some of their skaters back as defenseman Mike Green and center Nicklas Backstrom have recently returned to the lineup following long injuries. Their firepower alone is enough to win a series, the main question mark will be in goal for the Caps where injuries to Tomas Vokoun and, last night, to Michael Neuvirth, may put them in a tight spot.

In any event, regardless of who they play, fans can find NJ Devils playoff tickets on sale now at SelectATicket.com and enjoy the live playoff hockey action, there’s nothing as intense as playoff hockey!

New York Rangers Win For Second Night in a Row

Friday, March 26th, 2010

The New York Rangers beat the New Jersey Devils 4-3 in a shootout on Thursday night. This win was the Rangers’ second win in two nights. The Rangers were behind the Devils all night, but managed to pull through with a 4-3 victory in Newark.

This was the second time this month that the Rangers were able to come back, and take the lead after having three separate one-goal deficits in Newark. During these two games Patrik Elias and Ilya Kovalchuk both put points on the board in each of the first two periods.

With 16.5 seconds left in the game on Thursday, Chris Drury made the goal that tied the game. Christensen sent him a backhanded pass who was able to score the tying goal, and that goal was his 12th goal of the season from the front edge of the crease. This only enhanced his reputation as being one of the most clutch players of the NHL. Erik Chistensen made the most important goal when he scored the Rangers’ fourth goal in the game during the shootout.

This game put the Rangers 10th in the Eastern Conference. They moved three points behind the number eight Boston Bruins, and five within the seventh place Philadelphia Flyers.

The New York Rangers will play their next game on Sunday, March 27 in Toronto against the Maple Leafs. Get your New York Rangers tickets from Select A Ticket now!
