TEAMS: Boston Bruins, Minnesota Wild, New Jersey Devils, Buffalo Sabres
The Bruins are home tonight against the defending Eastern Conference Champion New Jersey Devils just after playing last night against the Carolina Hurrricanes. The Bruins beat the Hurricanes 5-3, Seguin had an empty netter at the end of the game. Now the Bruins will have to face the Devils. The Devils, like the Bruins, have not yet lost in regulation. The Devils are 3-0-1 coming off of a overtime loss to the Montreal Canadians.
During the off season the Devils lost forward Zach Parise who signed with the Minnesota Wild. It was a big loss for the Devils but the Devils are doing great so far in part due to their defensive mind set and solid goal tending from Marty Brodeur. The Devils top forward Ilya Kovalchuck has 5 points, 2 goals and 3 assists, in the four games the Devils have played. The Bruins have not had huge problems with Kovalchuck in the past but he's a speedy slippery player who could score on any shift.

The New Jersey Devils have announced that left winger Mattias Tedenby has been assigned to the Devils AHL affiliate, the Albany Devils.
