New Jersey Devils vs Tampa Bay Lightning: NHL Live Stream, Schedule, Probable Lineups, Injury Report, March 16, 2023

New Jersey Devils                                            

The New Jersey Devils will welcome the Tampa Bay Lightning to Prudential Center for an NHL game on Thursday. The New Jersey Devils lost 1-4 in their last game over the Lightning. Damon Severson opened the scoring for the Devils at 5:55 of the first period. Ryan Graves’ apparent goal midway through the first was wiped out because of goalie interference after a coach’s challenge.

“We didn’t start bad, that’s for sure,” New Jersey defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler said. “We just need to be consistent over 60 minutes.” Cirelli tied it on a backhander while Tampa Bay was short-handed with 3:43 left in the first.

The Tampa Bay Lightning on the other hand won 1-4 against the Penguins in their last Devils. Brandon Hagel had a goal and two assists, Andrei Vasilevskiy made 22 saves and Tampa Bay scored the last four goals in a 4-1 victory over New Jersey on Tuesday night. Anthony Cirelli, Alex Killorn and Nikita Kucherov also scored for Tampa Bay in the opener of a two-game set. The teams will meet again in New Jersey on Thursday night, and face off Sunday night in Florida.

“They’re one of the top teams in the league,” Hagel said. “They’ve been having an incredible season. They’re a playoff team so it’s a good test for us and for us to be able to do this. Hopefully, we can get some momentum off this.” 

“It goes from down 2-0 to their head on a power play to now we’re 1-1 and it was a huge spark for us and we were able to get the second one to get the lead and that was big for us,” Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. “But that was a big part of the game, the challenge and the shorty.”
