Devils second-line mates Jesper Bratt and Jack Hughes lead the team with a combined 61 points through New Jersey’s first 27 games as both have already eclipsed the 20-assist mark this season. Hughes, the number one pick in the 2019 NHL Draft, posted three assists in Saturday’s loss to Washington for his 10th multi-point game this season. Bratt ended November with nine goals and nine assists in 14 games during the month including a hat-trick in a 6-2 road win against the Panthers.
The Rangers rank sixth in the NHL allowing just 2.78 goals per game paced by the second ranked penalty kill that is stopping 87.7% of chances against the man-advantage. That unit will be tested on Monday when it faces the Devils top-ranked power play that has scored 10 goals on the man advantage in the last six games.
Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin has lost four straight starts allowing 13 goals in that span having posted career-worst 2.93 goals against average and .913 save percentage after winning 36 or more games each of the last three seasons.
