The Philadelphia Flyers wrapped up a home-and-home set against the New Jersey Devils with a split. After a 4-2 home win on Monday, the Fyers sustained a 5-0 loss at Prudential Center on Wednesday evening.
The Devils are one of the best teams in the NHL in the second period. It showed Wednesday night as Sam Ersson and the Flyers allowed four goals in the period.
The Hughes brothers, Luke and Jack, each had two points on the night, and Luke's tally was a thing of beauty. The 21-year-old blueliner collected an errant pass in his own zone, accelerated down the ice and snapped the puck past Samuel Ersson from the high slot.
Following a frustrating 4-2 defeat earlier in the week, the Devils flipped the script in a decisive way, shutting out the Philadelphia Flyers 5-0 at the Prudential Center on Wednesday, reclaiming their momentum with a dominant performance across the board.
