Tonight is the final game of the team's dad/mentors' trip. They have had a good weekend thus far, as the Devils earned a 6-3 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets last night at Nationwide Arena. Jack Hughes reached and passed the 100-goal milestone in addition to scoring a hat trick, and Nico Hischier celebrated his 300th career NHL point.
Last season, the Devils earned a 2-0-0 record versus the Ducks. Winger Jesper Bratt has collected 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in nine games versus tonight's opponent and is currently riding a seven-game point streak. On the other side of the ice, Troy Terry is averaging over a point-per-game in his career vs. New Jersey, tallying six points (four goals, two assists) in five games.
The Ducks are eighth in the Pacific Division (10-19-0). They are coming off a 5-1 loss to the New York Rangers. Brett Leason scored his team's lone goal and enters tonight's game on a two-game point streak. Goaltender Lukas Dostal made 34 saves on 39 shots.
