| Pandolfo, Devils beat up on slumping Lightning for first home win:
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- The goals finally came for Jay Pandolfo and the New Jersey Devils, giving hockey fans in Newark a reason to cheer. Pandolfo scored three goals for the first time to lead New Jersey to a 6-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night, giving the Devils their first victory at the Prudential Center. After scoring only four goals during a four-game losing streak, the Devils relieved the mounting pressure with a breakout performance. "It's nice to get confidence," Pandolfo said. "We've obviously struggled this year. If we can keep doing that and gain some confidence by scoring goals at home, it will be fun." John Madden scored a goal and assisted on all of Pandolfo's goals. "It brings you back to the days when you were a little kid scoring lots of goals," Madden said. "It's a good feeling, knowing immediately that you helped your hockey club. It makes everybody feel better about their game and you're not squeezing your stick as tight." Arron Asham and Zach Parise also scored for the Devils and Martin Brodeur, playing in his 900th game, made 21 saves as New Jersey halted a four-game losing streak. Vincent Lecavalier scored for the Lightning, who have dropped all five road games. "It's really frustrating," Lightning forward Martin St. Louis said. "It deflates you. We're saying the same things over and over. We've got to be sharper. We're trying to find a way to win a game on the road." |
