In a nail-biting finish, Stefan Noesen’s overtime goal secured a 3-2 victory for the Devils against the Lightning in Newark
The Devils had a rough road trip before this, but Ondrej Palat and Jack Hughes also found the net, helping the team bounce back. Markstrom’s been impressive this season, and this win marked their sixth straight at home.
Noesen’s goal came just over three minutes into overtime, taking advantage of a penalty on Nick Paul. Jesper Bratt was a playmaker, racking up two assists. The Lightning had goals from Victor Hedman and Nikita Kucherov, but it wasn’t enough.
Palat kicked things off with a goal in the first period, and Hughes added another in the second. The Lightning tied it up twice, but the Devils held strong. Markstrom made some key saves, especially during the Lightning’s power plays.
Next up, the Lightning will face the Penguins, while the Devils are set to host the Florida Panthers. It’s shaping up to be an exciting season!
