Adam Henrique: The Devils Finest Playoff Asset
The New Jersey Devils defeated the Los Angeles Kings 3-1 in Game 4 to stay alive in the 2012 Stanley Cup Final Series. This recap goes on about how the Devils performed, the little things that made the goals happen, and many more observations.
Ahead of tonight's Game 4, I offer my feelings about the New Jersey Devils, who are facing elimination down 3-0 in the series to the Los Angeles Kings. Amid all of them, I'm finding there's nothing to lose with being a little hopeful against the odds.
The Devils need to find ways to get pucks past Jonathan Quick if they hope to survive Game Four. We suggest a few ways the potential Conn Smythe winner could be broken down by looking at his play from earlier in the postseason.
