When I was 11 I cried my eyes out losing to the kings. Now I have some happiness! Thank you New Jersey Devils!
Rangers suck!
LGD!
That was just a disgrace rangers. You added all that talent at the deadline. Your up 2-0 heading to your building and you lose in game 7 while getting shutout. That is just pathetic. And you died like I thought you would, all offense no defense. BYE FELICIA
Lame
Bye Rangers. Pathetic organization.
Akira Schmid with 31 saves. He played a hell of a game. Great to see this team win their first playoff series.
Not related to this video but I hope Vladimir Tarasenko go back to Blues.
Sorry to ask what happened to meiers nose, was it from that hit? Congrats devils on advancing
How do you not make a close up of Meier and Trouba handshake after that hit? Producer, wake up!
Here comes a sweep to the canes
I'm legit scared of the devils. so fast. Between Schmid channeling Brodeur and their whack speed. Should be interesting next round for sure.
This Isles fan says thank you Devils for embarrassing the Rags; at least my team went down with an Overtime fight. Looks like the Rags and us will be chasing you guys for the foreseeable future. LGI
rangers forgot the devils were the 3rd best team in the league ….
You’ve gotta appreciate seeing this young, hungry Devils squad shut down the Rangers’ hastily slapped together trade deadline “All Star” team. It still baffles me why all these aging stars want to go play in NY and waive their NTCs to go play for a franchise that has only won a single cup since the cure for polio was invented.
Did the Rangers win?😂😂😂😂
Nicely done Devils! Congrats on the Game 7 win and moving on to Round 2. Canes will be a tough challenge but it should be fun because this Devils team is a total wildcard!
Unfortunately this time the Rangers are on the losing side of a Game 7. Sadly, it can be clearly seen that the Rangers allowed the success they had from last season get into their heads, and it costed them dearly in the playoffs this year. GG's to New Jersey. Wouldn't surprise me if the Rangers and Devils met in the postseason again soon. Good luck in Round 2 Devils.
Rags fell into a black hole that Akira made for them……
In AKIRA we trust! LOVE MY DEVILS!!!! 2nd Round here we come WOOOOHOOOO 😈😈😈😈😈😈
Forza Devils!! Let's go!
Rangers are a joke. Too embarrassed to show Kane in the handshake line. Maybe you shouldn’t promise your fanbase a Stanley cup a week into the season.
I have been so lucky to see the Devils hoist the cup 3 times!!!!! Love this team so much!!!!!!!!
Me to Patrick Kane: You have chosen….poorly.
I don't feel sorry for Igor Shesterkin haha haha
cant really see it cause the camera wasnt on them but Trouba and Meier shaking hands after that huge hit was true sportsmanship i love that stuff
I can't believe it!!! It's really happened! I have tremendous faith in the Devils like always, but it just feels surreal to have won this series. Always counted out from the beginning of the season, and to this series too, but we prevailed! Keeping that Jersey Strong mentality
Let's go Devils
I was here hands down favorite moment ever
Amazing win by the hard working DEVILS LED BY THEIR CALM PATIENT COACH
The funniest thing when they are shaking hands, schmid wipes his hands on his Jersey after 😂
I wish I could have gone through this series with Dano and Bill but I was stuck with ESPN. So proud of the guys to get the job done in such a decided win tonight!
The Devil's know how to bounce back. One of many reasons they beat out the Rangers
Schmid was so confident in net. I haven't rooted for the Devils since '03. I was definitely doing so today.
Imagine getting Kane and Tarasenko and still losing in the first round. Good riddance. 94 nevermore.
Thanks for the spoiler title NHL. Some people watch the highlights because they can't watch the games, and this appears in the suggestions on the right.
Schmid rocks
