"We were not good," Carolina coach Rod Brind'Amour said. They dominated from start to finish in both games. This was a totally different game than the first two in Raleigh, North Carolina, which the Canes won by a combined 11-2 score. Andersen, who allowed two goals on 48 shots in the first two games of the series, gave up four on 12 shots before being replaced by Pyotr Kochetkov early in the second period. They did it better than us tonight."Īho had other goal for the Hurricanes. They got the puck in and played our style of game. "We knew they were going to come with a push," Staal said.

Dawson Mercer had three assists.Ĭarolina set an NHL record, scoring three short-handed goal in the game. Michael McLeod capped a three-goal opening period with a short-handed goal and 19-year-old defenseman Luke Hughes - Jack's brother - made his playoff debut and picked up two assists. The eight goals were the most for the Devils in a playoff game since they beat Washington 10-4 on April 22, 1988. "We still have a couple things to clean up but, hey, we'll take a win now and it's 2-1." It's a series now so that's what we wanted to do, have a bounce-back game and scoring eight goals is a statement," Hischier said. "And really, what was he thinking?"īesides Meier, Nico Hischier and Damon Severson added their first goals of playoffs and Vitek Vanecek returned to the net and made 26 saves and even had an assist on Miles Wood's third-period breakaway. "I think that kills his chance for the Lady Byng," Devils coach Lindy Ruff quipped. Hughes, who has never had a fighting major, got two-minutes for roughing and Aho got four minutes, the extra two because of a cross-check. A couple of punches were attempted with no damage inflicted. Hughes picked up the Finnish player and attempted to body slam him to the ice. What wasn't Hughes' game was his second-period dust-up with Aho in front of the Carolina net. "Up and down the lineup, a lot of compete - a lot of guys winning their battles, a lot of skating. "I think we were just focused right from the get go," said Hughes, who is nominated for this year's Lady Byng award for sportsmanship. Hughes set the tone early with an assist on Timo Meier's goal with a pass from behind the net and ripping a second shot past Frederik Andersen five minutes later. Hughes scored two goals, set up two more and had a near fight with Carolina star Sebastian Aho as the Devils began the task of digging out of another hole with a 8-4 win over the Hurricanes in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals Sunday.
