Jack Hughes' Huge Third Period Lifts Devils over Blackhawks

Dougie Hamilton and Jack Hughes scored late goals within 19 seconds to secure the Devils' rally from a 3-2 deficit, with Hughes scoring his 22nd goal into an empty net.

  • On Sunday night, the New Jersey Devils defeated the Chicago Blackhawks 5-3 after Dougie Hamilton and Jack Hughes scored 19 seconds apart late in the third period. Goaltender Jake Allen made 28 saves to secure the rally.
  • Chicago's defensive vulnerabilities mounted as the team conceded 49, 33, 47, 42, 39, and 40 shots on goal over their last six games. Goaltender Spencer Knight made 35 saves but could not prevent the late collapse.
  • Blackhawks forward Frank Nazar recorded his first career two-goal game, while Jack Hughes paced the Devils with two goals and two assists, including the game-winner after blowing past Alex Vlasic.
  • Head coach Blashill emphasized patience for his young roster, noting 11 players on the Sunday roster were age 23 or younger. Chicago has now missed the postseason for the sixth consecutive season.
  • The New Jersey Devils visit the New York Rangers on Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET, carrying a 38-33-2 record against the Rangers' 30-35-9 mark. The teams have met twice already this season.
