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.

   Vincent Trocheck strikes the first goal of the game and his 14th of the season. Jordan Eberle ties up the game with his sixth of the season! Erik Gustafsson takes the lead for the Rangers. The final score of the first period was 2-1.


   Blake Wheeler scores the third goal for the Rangers - Kaapo Kakko nets one not long after, the Rangers in the lead by three. 4-1 was the final score of the middle frame.


   Jared McCann scores the second and last goal for the Kraken. Blake Wheeler gets an empty-netter with his second of the game! The final score overall was 5-2.



"It was huge going into the game. We were hoping that we couldn't give them many rush chances and odd-man rushes. They have a lot of speed and they make you pay on those. Unfortunately, we turned the puck over quite a bit - you hate to have to rely on him to make the amount of quality saves he made. Fortunately for us, that's why he's world-class and he made a bunch of big ones for us tonight." Blake Wheeler spoke about the Rangers 5-2 win against the Kraken postgame.
