The New Jersey Devils are in the midst of a significant stretch, and the first pair of games did not go well. A good start is important for this team, clearly. This team needs to look at every game as a four-point affair, so they can not afford to lose to the Sabers this weekend. While they didn’t come away with even a point, it wasn’t all negatives against the Flyers and some players are still doing quite well.
