Game 63 GameThread: Devils vs. Philadelphia

by John Fischer on Mar 1, 2009 11:15 AM EST in Devils Games

Philadelphia Flyers at New Jersey Devils, Mar 1, 2009 1:00 PM EST

Your probable starters for today:

	GP	MIN	W	L	T	EGA	GA	GAA	SA	SV	SV%	SO
NJ - Martin Brodeur	12	703	8	2	2	2	23	1.96	291	268	.921	3

	GP	MIN	W	L	T	EGA	GA	GAA	SA	SV	SV%	SO
PHI - Martin Biron	37	2145	19	12	5	1	102	2.85	1125	1023	.909	2

I'm guessing on Biron because Antero Niittymaki wasn't all that good against Montreal. I could be wrong, though!

Anyway, I'm off to the game. Feel free to leave any and all comments about the game here in this GameThread. Here is my preview of the game, which is actually up and now corrected. Something to read before the game starts. For the Flyers' side of this rivalry, go check out Broad Street Hockey later. They will have something up. Please keep it clean (esp. if you go to BSH, like the Devils in this rivalry, let's be the classier fans in this rivalry), keep it relevant, and Go Devils.

After one...

Devils 1-0 lead thanks to a sweet shot by Captain Langs, with assists by Zach and Travis. The ZZ Pop line strikes!

Nothing much else, though. Lots of blocked shots and passes on both sides. Devils defense putting the clamp down on the Flyers.

Second period just got underway. Enjoy. Feel free to comment.

After two...

Two-nil Devils. Gionta tipped one home to make the score as is early in the period.

Afterwards, again, all defense. Saves here, blocked shots/passes there, scrums and hits everywhere (speaking of which, I’d like to see Clarkie at one point, maybe when the lead is secure, take umbrage to Alberts’ dirty deeds done dirt cheap).

All this should build-up to a tremendous third.
