Bruins Get Dismantled By Devils
The Boston Bruins are trying to build some ground to stand on in the crowded  Eastern Conference playoff field but didn’t do themselves any favors on Wednesday night after getting dismantled by the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center by the final score of 5-1.
After creating more far offensive chances than the Bruins, the Devils broke through in the second period with four unanswered goals on 17 shots. This included Stefan Noesen and Dawson Mercer scoring just 12 seconds apart from each other.
Noesen scored a power-play goal and took five shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Bruins. Noesen gave the Devils a 3-1 lead in the latter stages of the third period with a backhand shot that went past Jeremy Swayman as part of a four-goal second period for New Jersey.
Dawson Mercer scored two goals as the Devils beat the Bruins, 5-1, to snap a four-game skid. Read more on Boston.com.
