The New Jersey Devils with the Swiss faction around Nico Hischier are sticking to a pattern. For the sixth time in a row, a win was followed by a defeat.
This time, the NHL team from the east coast had to bow to the favored Vegas Golden Knights 0:2 away from home. They conceded two powerplay goals in the final period. Hischier and Meier were unsuccessful with a total of six shots on goal, Jonas Siegenthaler was absent for the seventh time in a row due to injury.

Despite the constant ups and downs, the Devils are on course for the playoffs with a win and a loss. The Nashville Predators, on the other hand, are slowly coming to terms with the fact that the qualifying phase is over. Captain Roman Josi's team, who has now had to sit out a third game, lost 4-0 away at the New York Rangers. Nashville would have to overtake six teams and make up 16 points in the remaining 22 games.
