Even though Vitek Vanecek allowed five goals to go past him, the New Jersey Devils’ offense continued to impress. Dawson Mercer set a franchise record for longest consecutive goal streak while Dougie Hamilton tied Scott Stevens for most goals in a single season by a Devils defenseman. It wasn’t their cleanest showing, but the Devils were able to sweep the reigning Stanley Cup champions.

Wasn't always pretty but a big win! Seven goals again! LGD ❤️😀🔥
The Devils scored 7 goals without Jack Hughes registering a point. That should be the most encouraging stat in a game like this. Depth scoring is going to be crucial down the road. Vitek's had 3 games where he's not played his best, but he's allowed a slump. He probably just needs to rest a game or two.
Devils are legit
Yesss LGDDD! 😈🖤🔥🔥🔥
Thank God for Schmid… V was soo off his game… if not for Schmid we lose.. 💯
The Vitek is not looking too good.
IMO, take a away that last Avs goal where ref totally missed marino getting high sticked in the face which most certainly led to the goal and its a little easier to swallow. The promising thing is, again, even when they make mistakes and play bad D, they can just outscore their opponent.
That 1st line has toral 30 pts in last 6 games so for sure we cant break that line up
A big question is who is Ruff going lineup with Timo?
I really like how Schmid has looked. Definitely seems like he is the superior prospect to Daws.
I know this might sound crazy but why not start Meier on the third line, let him get his feet wet and insert him on the powerplay. Can you imagine Meier, Hughes, and Hischier on the PP with Dougie Hamilton at the point? Speaking of, one of the biggest reasons the Devs are successful is due to the output from the defensive position. Last year they gave them hardly anything but this year's been a different story. Loved how Graves carried the puck behind the net, then laid that sweet pass to Mercer for the goal. Just wait till Hughes and Nemec arrive then they should really be a favorite for the coming seasons.
Mercer is a DAWGG
