Devils will test Isles' patience
"It's important you don't get frustrated playing those guys," Frans Nielsen said after the Islanders' practice Wednesday at IceWorks. "We can't get down or be surprised if we've only got, like, 12 shots on goal after two periods. We have to wait for our chances."
"We have to understand there are games you need to win 1-0 or 2-1," Jack Capuano said. The Isles did beat the Devils, 1-0, on March 4 last season, but have lost, 5-1, 2-1, 3-1 and 2-1 in the last four meetings. "They do what they do. We have to focus on what we need to do."
