Great shift by New Jersey’s line of Elias, Henrique and Zubrus. They applied pressure to perfection and confused the Kings deep in their own end. It led to a turnover and ultimately a scoring opportunity via an Anton Volchenkov shot, but Anze Kopitar was there to get his body on it.

Jonathan Quick has been too good for the Devils to think they’ll have success without getting the puck in deep and creating chances from there.
