The Devils Are on the Brink Tonight

If you’re a fan of watching local sports teams compete in postseason games, tonight might be your last chance for a while. The Devils are facing elimination in Newark against the Flyers, two days after Philly routed them 4–1 to take a three-games-to-one series lead. But don’t pencil the Flyers into the conference semis quite yet: They’ll play tonight without Jeff Carter and Simon Gagne, both of whom are sidelined with foot injuries. And if it doesn’t matter, and the Flyers finish off the Devils without them: Well, look out for jelly-throwing Lou Lamoriello!
