The New Jersey Devils played against the Calgary Flames, with the Devils leading 2-1 after the second period and eventually winning 4-2. Nico Hischier scored twice, including an empty-net goal. Hischier's return from injury has seen the Devils win 6 of their last 7 games. The Devils' victory was also attributed to Vanecek's strong performance and their effective puck pressure system. The Devils then faced the Edmonton Oilers, losing 4-1 and concluding their road trip with a 3-1 record. The game saw Hischier off for slashing and the Devils trailing 2-0 after the second period.
