Chisholm Power-Play Lifts Devils to 4-3 Win Over Avalanche

Overview

• New Jersey took a 4-3 victory over Colorado Tuesday night when Declan Chisholm scored a power-play goal midway through the second period that put the Devils ahead for good.
• Luke Evangelista opened the scoring and Arseny Gritsyuk added a third-period goal before Jesper Boqvist sealed the result with an empty-netter.
• Goalie Jake Allen made 31 saves and was honored before the game for reaching 500 career appearances earlier this month.
• Colorado's Scott Wedgewood stopped 37 shots and Artturi Lehkonen scored two late goals, but the Avalanche lost their second straight road game and their third in four outings.
• The win pushed New Jersey's strong home form to four wins in six games and leaves Colorado needing cleaner starts and more consistent play as it returns home to face Tampa Bay on Friday.
