set a club record with their 11th straight road victory, beating the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 on Saturday night.
The Devils, who recently had a 13-game winning streak, have won four of five and 17 of 19 overall. New Jersey managed to continue its surge despite being outplayed for the first two periods. The Devils caught a break on Mercer's goal that broke a 1-all tie 1:49 into the third. Flyers goalie Carter Hart went to play the puck behind the net after New Jersey dumped it into the zone. But Hart waited too long and passed it to Wood. The puck deflected off Wood to Mercer, who put it on his forehand and scored into a wide-open, vacated net.
Despite Philadelphia dominating play, New Jersey got on the board first when Zetterlund scored from close range 6:01 into the second period. It was just the fifth shot of the contest and first of the second period for the Devils, who had allowed 17 Philadelphia shots to that point. After Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov turned the puck over behind the net, Wood passed in front to Zetterlund, who beat Hart for his fifth of the season.
