At this point, Kyle Palmieri is just one-upping himself.
Days after becoming the first player in franchise history to open the season with back-to-back two-goal games, the New Jersey native did it again Sunday in the Devils' 3-2 win over the San Jose Sharks at Prudential Center to open the season with three straight wins.
The Devils lost both games to the Sharks last season.
The Devils found themselves in an unfamiliar position so far this season when they entered the third period trailing by a goal, but it took all of three minutes and 25 seconds to erase that.
