Every single one of us, the devil inside
My first GDT of the year! I used to have more time to do these, but unfortunately some of us had to go back into the office 3 days a week. Also, since I can't seem to post gifs anymore, it's taken a little bit of fun out of it.
Think Allen needs a game tonight.
Must have that first goal.
The New Jersey Devils are coming off their fourth shutout loss of the season after dropping their matchup against the St. Louis Blues. It's been an interesting trend for the team, who's last four losses have all been shutouts. Timo Meier served his one-game suspension against the Blues and will return to the lineup against Detroit.
Coming up for New Jersey, based on Thursday's practice session, there will lineup changes coming as Meier returns to his regular spot with Nico Hischier and Stefan Noesen. Paul Cotter will rejoin Erik Haula and Dawson Mercer, while Kurtis MacDermid will re-enter the lineup on the fourth line with Justin Dowling and Tomas Tatar.
On Thursday morning, the Devils returned forward Nolan Foote to the Utica Comets.
The duo of Jacob Markstrom and Jake Allen have been paving the way this season in net, with Markstrom starting the last three of the teams four games. Allen's most recent start was last Saturday in Washington when he played his 200th career game.
The Detroit Red Wings are closing out a three-game homestand against the Devils, most recently coming off a 2-1 overtime win against the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night. The Red Wings are looking to go 3-0 during their homestand with just New Jersey standing in their way. The Red Wings have played some low-scoring hockey of late and the margin for error is very slim, with four of their last five games all decided by a single goal.
WHO’S HOT
Devils: Nico Hischier scored the first hat trick of his career on Monday night against the Nashville Predators. he leads the team with 13 goals and is third in points with 24 behind Jack Hughes (25) and Jesper Bratt (28).
Red Wings: Lucas Raymond is starting to heat up for the Wings after a slower start to the year. On top of scoring the overtime winner against Calgary, he has points in five straight games and goals in four straight. While in the previous 10 games he has 10 points (5g-5a)
INJURIES
Devils: Bastian (jaw, IR), Lazar (knee, IR), Hatakka (shoulder)
Red Wings: Kane (upper-body, day-to-day), Lyon (undisclosed, day-to-day)
