With the current abysmal road trip coming to an end with tonight’s New Jersey Devils and Winnipeg Jets game, the hope was that the Devils would have a strong showing and gut out a win in a close-fought game.
Weeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllllll......
The first shift of the first period started off well; the tweaked top line of Kyle Palmieri, Taylor Hall and Travis Zajac started off the game with a strong shift. They made some crisp passes, got an attempt or two on net, and kept the Jets hemmed in their own zone for roughly a minute.
