The title quite frankly summarizes the night effectively for our New Jersey Devils; while there were a couple of bright spots in tonight’s game, and the team didn’t play poorly per se, the Dallas Stars simply played better for most of the game and were rewarded in overtime. The Stars were held without a goal (thanks to some excellent goaltending by Keith Kinkaid) until 13:24 in the 3rd, but would cash in twice with a man advantage to head back to Dallas still mathematically alive in the Western Conference playoff race.
The Devils meanwhile will hope to “Rock The Rock” on Thursday night as they make-up their previously snowed out game against the Winnipeg Jets.
