NJ Devils 5 Ottawa Senators 4 in a Shootout at Prudential Center

After work last night I headed over to the Prudential Center where I met Karen and Lee. The Ottawa Senators scored the first two goals but then the Devils scored 4 unanswered goals to take a 4-2 lead. With about 2 1/2 minutes left in regulation, the Senators pulled their goalie and then scored with about 90 seconds to go and again with 37 seconds left to tie the game. No goals were scored in the 5-minute overtime period necessitating a shootout. Drew Stafford and Jesper Bratt scored in the shootout giving the Devils a 5-4 victory.
