Devils with another strong week

Three games, four points: that’s this week’s tally for the New Jersey Devils and Nico following a three-game road trip that featured games at Dallas (5-1), Denver (2-5) and Las Vegas (5-2).

With 9 wins and 5 losses through 14 games, the Devils currently sit second in the Metropolitan Division and sixth in the Eastern Conference. Individually, Nico scored his sixth and seventh goals of the season while averaging 17:45 of ice time. Overall, he recorded seven shots on goal, won 61.7% of his faceoffs and finished the week a plus-1.

After a brief three-day break, the Devils are slated to play four games in the upcoming week, starting with home games vs. the Oilers (Tue., 7:30 PM EST) and the Blues (Thu., 7 PM EST). They will then take to the road for the final two games of the week, which will pit them against the Islanders on Saturday, before closing out the week on Sunday in Toronto. Both of these games will have a 7 PM EST start time.
