Point Earned, Streak Secured: Devils Outlast Penguins 2-1 in SO Thriller

  Photo: Andrew MacLean This thrilling Metropolitan Division clash was a goaltending masterclass from both ends of the ice. The New Jersey Devils ultimately prevailed in the shootout, defeating the Pittsburgh Penguins 2-1 to secure their second consecutive victory and extend their perfect season-opening home winning streak to seven games. The Devils' win was anchored by netminder Jake Allen, who stopped a stunning 33 of 34 shots through regulation and overtime. Across the ice, the resilient Penguins earned a crucial point, thanks to rookie Arturs Silovs—who turned away 23 of 24 shots while holding the Devils' potent offense in check, an impressive feat for an injury-riddled squad missing six key players. Pittsburgh Penguins Lineup: Rust - Crosby - Kindel Novak - Malkin - Mantha Koppanen - Hayes - Koivunen Heinen - Lizotte - Dewar Wotherspoon - Karlsson Shea - Letang Graves - Clifton Silovs Murashov New Jersey Devils Lineup: Noesen - Hughes - Bratt Meier - Hischier - Mercer Pala...

New Jersey Devils star Jack Hughes is back!







   Devils' star Jack Hughes has been out the past 5 games due to a shoulder injury 2 weeks ago on November 3rd. He cut through a pair of defensemen on St. Louis, took a shot on goal, then crashed into the end boards. Hughes made a brief return to the ice, eventually leaving for good.

   Unfortunately, the Devils lost against St. Louis with a 4-1 score.

 

"It's tough," Curtis Lazar said after their loss in St. Louis. "Look at the start he's had. I'm not going to lie, we were a little dejected when it happened. But, again, you've got to kind of turn the page when you realize he's not coming back."


   During this game, the Devils were also without their captain, Nico Hischier, due to an upper-body injury. He's been out of the lineup since October 27th when New Jersey played against the Buffalo Sabres.


"Great second-effort goal around the front of the net," Ruff said. "I thought that goal got us going, and we had a lot of good zone time after that."

 







   Today, November 17th, the Devils announced that Jack Hughes was out on the ice for practice! After 2 weeks of suffering an upper-body injury, the star is back and can hopefully play in tomorrow's game against the New York Rangers.

   Hughes will be a game time decision to play tomorrow night.
