The New Jersey Devils rode two second period goal within two minutes to a 3-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins Thursday night
With both Evgeni Malkin and Teddy Blueger placed on the injured reserve earlier Thursday afternoon, the Penguins’ game against the Devils was already set up for disappointment.
However, that didn’t make the loss any less disappointing when it actually happened.
Aside from the Sidney Crosby line, the Penguins rolled out a couple of fourth lines against the Devils. And that only made it clear that if Geno and Blueger are out for any extended period of time, general manager Ron Hextall will need to make some moves.
