For just the second time this season, the New Jersey Devils had to settle a game after 60 minutes of regulation play. The Devils dropped their contest in overtime with just 50.3 seconds left on the clock as the Red Wings sprung on a 2-on-1 to beat Keith Kinkaid glove-slide. The Devils fall to the Red Wings in overtime 3-2.

Today's matinee is the second of three regular season contests between New Jersey and Detroit. The Devils are 3-1-0 in day games so far this season, and are 1-4 against Atlantic Division opponents. The two clubs faced off on Nov. 1 in Detroit, when the Devils fell 4-3.

Devils forward Nico Hischier has only missed two games in his young NHL career. After playing in all 82 games last season, Hischier missed the Devils last two games with an upper body injury sustained against Winnipeg last weekend. It appears Hischier is on the mend. On Friday, with the Devils back in New Jersey fresh off their victory against the Philadelphia Flyers, Hischier joined his teammates for practice for the first time.

PHILADELPHIA, PA - There was no love lost between the New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night. Back out on the road, the Devils protected a 1-0 lead from the 3:45 mark of the first period until the final whistle. New Jersey defeated the Flyers 3-0 as Keith Kinkaid backstopped the Devils with his seventh career shutout, his second against the Flyers. 

With a victory under the Devils belts earlier this week against the Pittsburgh Penguins, New Jersey hopes to build upon what went well for them on Tuesday when they visit the Philadelphia Flyers Thursday night.
