The New Jersey Devils did not generate enough offense to earn two points against the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday night. After 60 minutes, the Devils were handed a 3-1 loss in Newark as the boos rained down from the fans who remained in the building until the final horn.

No team should dominate a game when it doesn’t convert on five power-play chances. That’s a testament to how good the Golden Knights were at five-on-five, and it resulted in a much-needed effort in what’s been a struggle of a month.
