The New Jersey Devils lost their second straight game on home ice to the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-3. It was a devastating loss where the Devils had a 2-0 lead after five shots. Columbus had an answer for everything, and Jake Allen did not have a good night.
However, what really changed the night was the fight by Brenden Dillon. On the night of his 1,000th game, Dillon was trying to get set for a fight with Dmitri Voronov, but his opponent dropped him face-first into the ice. Dillon didn’t immediately get up, and it was a scary sign around the arena.
