It proved to be one of the easier road victories of the season. The Marlies scored early and often, with Binghamton unable to exert much pressure offensively despite playing from behind nearly the entire 60 minutes.
First Period
The Devils were the masters of their own demise just 68 seconds in when an errant pass from Brian Strait allowed Andreas Johnsson to head in alone on goal. The Swedish winger made no mistake through the five-hole of MacKenzie Blackwood.
Inside six minutes, the Marlies doubled their lead. Jean Dupuy played a give-and-go to himself off the right boards and with space to measure his shot, beat Blackwood glove side for his first goal as a Marlie.
