The New Jersey Devils needed this win far more than the New York Islanders, as the Devils continue their race for a playoff spot this season. Taylor Hall, who has never played in a playoff game in his entire eight season NHL career, showed that he’s been the driving force for this Devils team all season, with two goals and chances for more as he lead New Jersey to the win over the Islanders. For the Islanders’ effort, two unlikely goal scorers stepped forward as Tanner Fritz scored his third NHL goal, and Chris Wagner scored his first as an Islander; Anthony Beauvillier also chipped in as he gets closer to his first 20 goal season.
