The New Jersey Devils have drawn even with the New York Rangers with a win in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Ilya Kovalchuk started the scoring for the Devils in the first with a Power-Play goal. The Rangers would come back in the 2nd and a Mark Staal Power-Play goal tied it for the Rangers before yet another Ranger Power-Play goal by Chris Kreider put the Rangers up 2-1 after a delay with the Penalty Box door not opening (you'll be seeing that on the SportsCenter Not Top 10). Before the end of the 2nd, however, the Devils would tie the game with a goal from Ryan Carter. The game then shifted to the 3rd and David Clarkson beat Henrik Lundqvist to put the Devils up for good 3-2. This game, like the first was a tight goaltending contest and has not let up any excitment in this series. The series now shifts over to Newark with Game 3 Saturday at 1PM on NBC SportsNetwork. I gotta give it up for the Devils they earned this hard fought victory. I don't think the Devils have an MVP of the game award & if they do I'll do an update with it.
SERIES TIED 1-1
& for those of you wondering about the Western Conference Finals: LA Kings up 2-0 on the Coyotes in that Series with Game 3 tomorrow night at 8 on NBCSN
