Philadelphia Flyers v New Jersey Devils Live

Opening the season with a tough back-to-back, the Flyers find themselves with another difficult opponent as the New Jersey Devils get ready for their first home game in 2009-10. Thus, the Devils will host the high-scoring Flyers at Prudential Center on Saturday at 11 p.m. GMT.

Even though the New Jersey Devils did not make a lot of moves during the off-season, the few which took place could turn out to be of significant importance for this year’s NHL campaign. More specifically, coach Brent Sutter left the Devils to work for the Calgary Flames and was subsequently replaced by Jacques Lemaire. On draft night, the franchise traded up and selected Jacob Josfeson with their first-round pick acquired from the Calgary Flames. Moreover, the franchise signed veteran Rob Niedermayer to a one-year contract in free agency. However, it should also be pointed out that the Devils lost right wing Brian Gionta to the Montreal Canadiens. In 2008-09, Gionta scored 20 goals and 40 assists for a total of 60 points in 80 NHL games.

Thus, the team around All-Star Zach Parise will face a tough challenge when the offensively oriented Flyers will be in town on Saturday. Most importantly, it will be crucial to the Devils’ success to limit Philadelphia’s scoring trio consisting of Jeff Carter, Mike Richards and Simon Gagne. Last year, said three players combined for a total of 110 goals and 238 points to help the Flyers finish the season second in total goals scored in the NHL. However, the defensively efficient Devils’ are expected to do their best to shutdown Philly’s trio while the audience is hoping for an entertaining game of hockey at Prudential Center on Saturday night.
