The New Jersey Devils took Game 5 in an impressive fashion, featuring a classic Martin Brodeur performance for his 23rd playoff shutout and to win Game 5 1-0. I like to thank all the commenters in the GameThread. Thanks for keeping it real, fairly clean, and supportive of the Devils. As usual, I...

Carolina Wins Game 4 at Last Second & Brodeur Bump, 4-3
The New Jersey Devils played their worst hockey in the first two periods, while the Carolina Hurricanes just outplayed them.
