Summary from United States, from articles in English
|
New Jersey jumped over idle Montreal and Pittsburgh to reclaim first in the East for the first time since Feb. 29 with 84 points, one more than the Canadiens and Penguins. (article 4)
Michel Ouellet tied it in the second and set the stage for Elias' heroics 4:02 into overtime. (article 5)
Parise, who also scored Friday night in New Jersey's 2-1 overtime win against Tampa Bay, has five goals in three games - all Devils victories. (article 2)
By TIM BONTEMPS March 4, 2008 With just 10 points separating the first and ninth-place teams, any lengthy losing streak could take a team from the top of the NHL's Eastern Conference to being on the outside looking in. (article 3)
While Gionta has begun to heat up, leading-scorer Zach Parise hasn't registered a point in four games after scoring in five straight, and Patrick Elias has scored one goal in his last 13 games. (article 3)
Elias stickhandled up the right boards, cut across to the middle, then slipped an unmissable pass to the right side of the crease, around the goalie who expected Elias' old, big shot. (article 6)
Elias has been scoring at a point-per-game pace for the past 22, a pretty good trick on a Devils team that struggles offensively. (article 6)
