Looking for their third straight win, the Flyers traveled to New Jersey to take on the Devils. It was a relatively quiet first midway through. The team were tied at three shots apiece.
The Devils has a bit more of the attack time, but nothing to show from it. New Jersey almost took the lead in the dying seconds of the first as Travis Zajac came from behind the net. He snapped it in front but Carter Hart stood tall. They also fired off a shot just before the buzzer, but again Hart made the stop.
