The Devils and Philadelphia Flyers played a low-scoring, low-event hockey game at Prudential Center Saturday afternoon. With both teams locked in defensively, it would come down to a mistake or two that would be the difference in the game.
On a day when the teams were blocking pucks left and right — they combined for 32 on net — the Flyers beat the New Jersey Devils, 3-1, Saturday. Travis Konecny scored an empty-netter with 3 seconds remaining.
Ersson did allow a goal less than 5 minutes into the third period but Jesper Bratt, the goal scorer, was offside on his give-and-go with OndÅ™ej Palát. The play was overturned on a coach’s challenge, giving John Tortorella and his staff an impressive 4-1 record.

The Devils and Florida Panthers waited for 40 minutes before they sent Tuesday’s game into chaos at the Prudential Center. Less than five minutes into the third period, Panthers star Matthew Tkachuk laid a high hit on Devils captain Nico Hischier that sent him on his back in a tied third period — renewing a personal beef that goes back two seasons.
Anton Lundell scored the shootout winner and Spencer Knight made 26 saves as the Florida Panthers downed the New Jersey Devils 2-1.
New Jersey Devils forward Stefan Noesen will not play in Tuesday night's game against the Florida Panthers. After the team's morning skate, head coach Sheldon Keefe hinted that his lineup could change. "We've got a game-time decision or two that might impact the group," he said. "We will have to see how that plays out tonight."
If New Jersey's journey to contention feels a little familiar, there's a good reason why. And will the Devils make another Cup run this spring?
New Jersey Devils forward Brian Halonen will make his season debut, and Stefan Noesen will return to the lineup.
The Flyers head to Prudential Center riding a four-game point streak, buoyed by a resilient and relentless style of play that has kept them in contention even in challenging games.
