The New Jersey Devils had their worst outing of the season in a 6-1 blowout loss to the Winnipeg Jets, as they weren't sharp from the get-go.

Ruff even gave him a look alongside Hughes and Mercer, though I don’t see that being a fit for the rest of the regular season. - Though the blame doesn’t go to them for the loss, it was a rough night for the Jonas Siegenthaler and Dougie Hamilton pairing. They’ll need to rebound for the team to have a chance at the season sweep of the Penguins tomorrow night. The good news for the Devils is that it took them 77 games to have their worst outing of the season. What was most impressive about Bahl’s night is he was not on the ice for a single goal against at five-on-five and only one of the six at all strengths. He was one of the few (maybe only) Devils that wasn’t getting beat to loose pucks consistently. It also came in the second half of a back-to-back and was their third game in four nights. On Nikolaj Ehlers’ goal that opened up the scoring, the Devils lost a puck battle behind the net. But it was a completely different scenario in Winnipeg, as the Jets are clinging to the second and final wild-card spot in the Western Conference. Vitek Vanecek made the save, but that was a sign of things to come. Nino Niederreiter had a breakaway a minute into the contest after Dougie Hamilton misplayed a puck that was in the air. Blowout losses have been a rarity for the New Jersey Devils this season.
