New Jersey Devils Capitalize on Red Wings' Struggling Penalty Kill, Led by Hamilton, Meier, and Hughes

Friday, November 29th, 2024

Dougie Hamilton, Timo Meier, and Jack Hughes led the New Jersey Devils to a 5-4 win against the Detroit Red Wings, taking advantage of Detroit's difficulties with penalty kills. The Devils managed to secure three goals during power plays.

In addition to these key players, Stefan Noesen and Nico Hischier also scored for New Jersey. On the Detroit side, Lucas Raymond, Vladimir Tarasenko, Justin Holl, and Tyler Motte contributed to the scoreboard.

Goalkeepers Jacob Markstrom and Cam Talbot each recorded 25 saves, playing for the Devils and Red Wings respectively.

A pivotal moment occurred late in the first period when Hamilton scored a power-play goal. This was quickly followed by Meier's tying goal on a power play, after Detroit's failed goalie interference challenge. This shift in momentum was significant for New Jersey's performance.

Lucas Raymond continued his impressive goal-scoring streak, marking his fifth consecutive game with a goal. He is the first player from the Red Wings to achieve this milestone in 16 years.

The Devils, having won four of their last five matchups, are set to host Washington on Saturday. In contrast, the Red Wings, who had a winning streak in their last two games, will play against Vancouver on Sunday.
