The New Jersey Devils still lack the toughness for the playoffs

The New York team currently needs the points more than the New Jersey team, which has already qualified for the playoffs. This was reflected in the course of the match. The hosts are more committed to their work and secure the two points in the closing stages. The 3:1 comes in the 56th minute, after which two more goals fall into the empty goal. After two recent losses, the New York Islanders are back on track to make it to the knockout stage.

The Devils with Hischier, Timo Meier and Jonas Siegenthaler did not follow their captain’s instructions in this match. After last weekend’s early playoff qualifying, it demanded that the remaining games be used to reach the best level. “We knew New York would fight for a place in the playoffs in this game. They played harder than us, they won more games, that cost us the game,” Meier said on the NHL’s online portal. “We’ve yet to find a way to put the next gear in gear for the most important time of the year.”

Next win for Malgin

Denis Malgin celebrates his third win in a row with Colorado Avalanche. The Denver team defeated the Anaheim Ducks 5-1 and is No. 1 in the Central Division in points lost. Malgin has one assist to his credit, his 17th scoring point (10 goals/7 assists) this season.
