After playing the night before, you would think the Devils would play flat, but they did quite the opposite scoring 5 goals in a 5-3 win in Buffalo. Most of all, the Devils special teams came through in a big way. Zach Parise scored short-handed and Ilya Kovalchuk scored on the struggling Devils power play and Patrik Elias, Mark Fayne, and David Clarkson added the other goals. Tyler Myers scored twice and Jordan Leopold added the other for Buffalo.
Martin Brodeur made 29 saves on 32 Buffalo shots, while Jhonas Enroth had 14 in 19 Devils shots. Overall, it was another great road effort by the Devils as they will go home, practice before heading to Florida to face both the Lightning and Panthers. For the first time since Spring of 2010, the Devils occupy a playoff spot in the East.
