The game between the New Jersey Devils and Vancouver Canucks will take place at Prudential Center on Monday, February 6 at 7:30 PM ET.
The New Jersey Devils will welcome the Vancouver Canucks to Prudential Center for an NHL game on Monday. The Pistons won 2-3 in their last game over the Stars. Jack Hughes scored his second goal of the game 20 seconds into overtime, lifting the New Jersey Devils to a 3-2 win over the Dallas Stars on Friday night.
Hughes’ winning goal skipped off the stick of Dallas’ Tyler Seguin and eluded Jake Oettinger as the Devils rallied from a 2-0 deficit and improved to an NHL-best 19-3-2 on the road this season. “Just shoot the puck,” said Hughes, the No. 1 pick in the 2019 draft who’ll represent New Jersey at next week’s All-Star game in Florida. “Sometimes you get the luck.” Dougie Hamilton assisted on both of Hughes’ goals. Hughes has scored 33 goals this season, including 26 in his last 30 games. “You can see he’s something special,” Devils goalie Vitek Vanecek said of Hughes. “It’s great watching him.”
Miles Wood also scored and Vanecek made 33 saves, including some point-blank stops, to stretch his personal winning streak to a career-best nine straight games. The Devils, who are 8-1-1 in their last 10 games, earned a split of a road back-to-back after losing 6-4 to Nashville on Thursday night. Five of New Jersey’s last six games have gone past regulation.
The Vancouver Canucks on the other hand won 5-2 against the Blue Jackets in their last game. Elias Pettersson scored twice, Bo Horvat had a career-high four assists and the Vancouver Canucks beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-2 on Friday night for their second victory in three games under Rick Tocchet.
Tocchet took over Sunday after Bruce Boudreau was fired. Quinn Hughes had a goal and an assist to help the Canucks improve to 20-26-3. Ilya Mikheyev and Dakota Joshua also scored and Collin Delia made 23 saves. Kirill Marchenko had two power-play goals for the Blue Jackets (15-30-3). Joonas Korpisalo stopped 29 shots for Columbus.
