TAMPA, Fla. -- Game 1 felt like his NHL debut all over again for Miles Wood.
The excitement, the adrenaline and the atmosphere all added to the intensity of the Thursday's Stanley Cup Playoff debuts for Wood and several other Devils.
While that adrenaline can fuel Wood, who relies on his speed and physicality to be a game-changer for the Devils, it also led to one of several miscues the Devils made early in the game.
A slashing penalty, five seconds into the second period far away from the Devils' defensive zone, led to a power-play goal for the Tampa Bay Lightning and a 3-0 lead.
