NHL: Devils irresistible away – rts.ch
Led by a brilliant Akira Schmid in net, the Devils picked up their 11th straight NHL away win. New Jersey went on to win 3-2 at Philadelphia.
Akira Schmid made 31 saves to obtain the 2nd star of this meeting and celebrate his 5th success in 5 appearances this season (including four as starter). The Bernese is posting remarkable averages of 94.9% saves and 1.42 goals conceded per game in this 2022/23 championship.
Nico Hischier – who had scored a point in his last 4 games – and Jonas Siegenthaler did not shine on the offensive plan for the Devils who, with 11 successes in a row away from their bases, are one unit behind NHL record held by the 2014/15 Wild version and the 2005/06 Red Wings.
It should also be noted that the Newark franchise now has 20 wins to its name this season, in 25 matches played. The Devils had reached the 20-game mark in their 56th meeting in the 2021/22 regular season.
