It wasn’t bad, at all.
Jack Hughes and the New Jersey Devils provided the fans back in the Garden State with something to cheer about. They defeated the Ottawa Senators 4-3 in a shootout on Monday night.
Prior to Monday, the team went eight-straight days without playing a game. They entered the contest at Canadian Tire Centre riding a three-game losing streak. The two basement teams in the NHL’s standings provided an entertaining game, though.
P.K. Subban and Ottawa’s young gun Brady Tkachuk were feisty with one another early on. It wasn’t long until the two dropped the gloves—or at least the hot-headed Tkachuk intended to throw down.
