NEWARK — Coach John Hynes would not reveal whether Scott Wedgewood will start Friday night's game in goal for the Devils against the Washington Capitals at Prudential Center.
Wedgewood has won his first two NHL games, including a 3-0 shutout victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins Thursday night at Consol Energy Center. That was the Devils' first shutout in Pittsburgh since Martin Brodeur posted his record-breaking 104th career shutout, 4-0, on Dec. 21, 2009.
The Devils will play the second half of their last set of back-to-back games when they take on the Caps.
