The Devils went down 1-0 early on off of an odd gaol by Chris Higgins where Damon Severson couldn't quite find the puck in his skates. The quick turn around shot by Higgins seemed to surprise Keith Kinkaid, but the Devils came right back with a good shift by the fourth line resulting in Stephen Gionta putting a shot off the post. Severson took a penalty moments later and it looked like the Devils could go down by two goals early. That is until Adam Henrique score his 12th career shorthanded goal off a nice setup by the red hot Travis Zajac.
