After losing two tough games to top NHL teams, the Devils jumped out to an early 3-0 lead against the Panthers and outlasted them 4-1 for the win.

Despite mounting an ambitious comeback late in the third period, the comeback fell short and the Devils lost 6-4 to the Canucks.

The Devils last outplayed an injured Bruins squad and defeated them 2-1 in early December. Tonight, healthier and rested, the Bruins took their vengeance.

The Devils broke their three-game losing streak with a gutsy, if haphazard win over the Detroit Red Wings in which Timo Meier scored two unassisted goals.

The Bruins entered the Prudential Center down a top defenseman and a top six forward. The Devils took advantage, hanging with an excellent team until they could sweep the Bruins from the ice in overtime off Jack Hughes’ snap shot.

The Devils almost fumbled the bag at the eleventh hour, but a stellar game from Akira Schmid and the Hughes brothers propelled them past the Flyers in overtime 4-3.

After talking big in the media about the heart-to-heart during practice and the need for change, the Devils look as bad as ever and drop a miserable game to a bad Metropolitan team. They’ve officially run out of rope and their legs are dangling off the gallows.

After collapsing against the Rangers, the Devils mirrored that performance by surrendering three goals in under ninety seconds against a Detroit team that’s 1-4 in their last five. More concerning than the loss is how they lost: without any fight-back or pride.
