Devils Fall to Stars 4-2 in Newark

In a dominant performance, Nico Daws recorded his first NHL shutout as the New Jersey Devils defeated the Nashville Predators 5-0, marking a strong rebound after a recent loss to the Dallas Stars. The Devils saw contributions from Dougie Hamilton, Ondrej Palat, Seamus Casey, Stefan Noesen, and Tomas Tatar, with Palat and Hamilton achieving their 500th career points. Nashville's struggles continued, having been shut out for the eighth time this season, while the Devils maintained their competitive position in the Eastern Conference playoff race. In the earlier game against Dallas, the Devils fell 4-2 despite a late surge, with Jack Hughes scoring twice but unable to overcome the Stars' strong start. The Devils will look to continue their successful streak against the Colorado Avalanche next. Meanwhile, the Stars will face the New York Islanders in their next match.
