Devils Stefan Noesen and his teammates jabbed and poked their sticks at the loose puck, trying desperately to give New Jersey its first lead of the game against the Detroit Red Wings on Friday. Noesen and the Devils recorded five shots in six seconds in the second period before Noesen finally got the puck past goaltender Cam Talbot.

The Red Wings worked like a light switch today. They’d be on for the first half of the period and flip off and let New Jersey score twice in the last ten minutes of both of the first two periods.
