right up there with Gritsuk is getting a chance
to play with Mercer and Meyer tonight as Devil juggling some things on the line with the return
of Stephan Nason. Yeah, I’m sure Gritsuk lining up against his Well, it’s going to be a key part of
the game here from the Devils perspective. Look, this is your second centering pass to Conor
back and it’s shifted down by Gerson who got a penalty. The Devils do Marcus Finino going
off. Look at this play by Dawson Mercer who’s centering this line of Conor and Brown number 17.
The way Dawson Mercer has played you go, well, he was on the top line. They were playing Tri.
Well, Dawson Mercer uh is a very valuable guy and can fit in anywhere. And there’s the pen. Brat
holds it in. Goes into the corner favor. Centering pass goes back up top for Hamilton. Brat back to
Hamilton. Tays up a shot. Save. Rebound. He sure couldn’t pull the trigger and interchanging with
right in the slot there. The bumper position there and Douggee just getting it out towards the net
right down and we always say that if there’s a stick on the ice or redlection from up high. Old
Devils on this power play as it’s got a minute nine to go. Brad back down low. Spin move by Heir,
but it’s stick aside by Gufferson. Back up top for Hamilton and a bad save. Big save there. It was
one of his better all-around games. Six shots, three hits, three blocks. He was all over that
game yesterday. NASA wins the power play. Part of that second unit. Hughes with a shot on the
power play. Teimo Meyer into the zone. Nent can’t center as it goes off the stick of Trent. Back
out to Hughes. Ditzell. Chris shot goes wide. Capri off looking for Bull. Doesn’t end up to get
to him but does deflect on net. Dos forced to make the save. Yeah, that’s a big save. First shot
for the Wild. might have bobbled it a little bit and couldn’t quite get it off quick enough. And
there’s that save right in front. Aaron Broton, another teammate of mine. Just a real good solid
intelligent player. Faber stops looking for an angle. Centering pass to Erikson. Knocked down
by Esher. Good keep by Uricek. Drops it off. Join Terasenko. His back hand ends up on net and it’s
gloved down by Dogs. Brown sharp angle shot goes off the stick of Ross. He ends up in front. Brown
could get a shot. Oh, the opportunity by Mercer and he shot it over the net. Oh, he can’t believe
it. Devils still buzzing. A heave that gets gloved out of the air by Gustoson and he holds on.
Yeah, look at the reaction from Mercer even after he shot the puck. He goes to the far boards
where Dylan waits for it. Quick pass to Nemits. Now he finds Mercer. Tops off the bench to join
the park. Nez with an instant shot that’s easily gloved away by Gustoen. Pretty good start to this
period. Centering playing in a different line here tonight and playing center. Juice to Meer with a
blast and a save. Rebound. Hughes couldn’t gobble it up. You know, he’s a guy that will get you
a big goal when you need it. And you need all different types of parts and roles to have a
successful team. I think had a really good game yesterday. Brown sneaks it in front to counter and
the Devils score. more hard work and persistence and the Devils draw first blood and take a one to
nothing lead. Well, Daniel, you talked about Paul Connor last couple games came to the blue paint
and he finally gets rewarded home in front. Let’s take a look at our million dollar replay brought
to you by the New Jersey Lottery. Remember, anything can happen in Jersey and it’s just good
hard work from the Devils off the face off as they get it deep and Brown, what does he do? Simplicity
tries to go to the net. The puck cars out while keeping alive. Full finds Spurgeon. Stolen away
by Jack Hughes all alone on the breakaway. Saved by Gustin. He’s made some key saves. Here’s
the Wild defenseman bobbling the puck. Jack Hughes takes it away and in all alone. Quick
shot. Brown to the point through Carter Mercer. He’s got Middleton to contend with. Potter comes
out, flips it back to Nemits to Mercer. Mercer Dylan doesn’t waste any time with a jump and
scores. He went since December 24 without a goal till last night. Make it two in a row for
the defenseman. And it’s two nothing New Jersey. He’s heating up with two goals in two
games. And this is just a old-fashioned hard work lunch pale t kind kind of shift
that results in a goal. Devils are [ __ ] the puck. They’ve got guys moving their feet
getting to it quickly. And Dustin aggressive finds Cabris off brings it back into the
zone. Baldi backhand over the net. Didn’t miss by much. Was going step of the right
foot as he sacrificed to block that shot. Here’s the opportunity I’m talking about from
Baldi Air of the New Jersey Devils. Eurichek for slashing at 449. Devils 0 for one on the
power play and they score his first NHL goal. Gritsuk on the power play and the Devils
take a 30 nothing lead. What a wrist shot. this already waiting for that first goal and it’s
right off the face off. Look at the release after Devils win it and the quick wrist right here by
our city grits. Welld deserved cuz he plays the right way. Meer gets the assist at 453. He sure
shot goes wide. Meer sticks with it. Bouncing puck in the face looking for more but it goes wide.
You know what? He was playing to his identity the last few games. And when you do that right,
the offensive comes and there’s Baldi. Devils do a good job shooting back, but it goes in as the shot
just goes over the right shoulder of Daw. So, the Wild score their first of the game midway through.
And now it’s 3-1. Well, now the Devils have to score. Minnesota will have a push. And Baldi, this
kid’s a heck of a hockey player. hasn’t hasn’t had a lot of looks. In fact, a lot of the Wild haven’t
because the Devils have defended so well. But look at him pull that puck back. He’s so big, strong,
the long reach. Pulls it back and just out of the reach of Nemitson goes top shelf. Seanthaller.
Gritz near circle looking for an angle back up top. Heir finds Seganthaler. Rips it off the post.
Rebound. Ritzuk bouncing puck. Britz takes it away trying to get around Favor. Can’t do it, but at

pass by Baldi. Does shut the door again. Watch that little backhand saucer. What a pass by Baldi
in the Devil’s own. You see right there. Just missed his shot. Hartman Baldi flips it down.
Hamilton catches up with it. Pokes it into the corner. Kristoff loses the puck. brat towards the
empty net and the Devils take a four to one lead. No messing around here. Desper Brack with
