This is the low point. In a season full of hitting rock bottom and grabbing a shovel, Thursday night was the lowest point of the season. The New Jersey Devils lost to the New York Rangers after holding a 2-0 lead in the first period.
It all started with a very questionable call at the end of the first period on Marcus Johansson. The Rangers immediately scored on the ensuing power play with two seconds left in the period. Then, there was the pathetic second period effort, where the Devils mustered five shots and gave up the lead.
