At the end of the New Jersey Devils preseason win against the New York Rangers, there was a ton of storylines. Nikita Gusev played great, making us excited to see what he’s going to do in the regular season. Mikhail Maltsev scored one of the best goals we’ve seen in the Ray Shero era. Cory Schneider looked like his old self. Of course, the Devils got the first win of the season in the Hudson River Rivalry.
One thing that also came out of this game that wasn’t a positive was the play that led to the Rangers second goal.
