Kinkaid, Devils shut out Flyers, 1-0, in OT

In Newark Tuesday, Keith Kinkaid made 35 saves to backstop the Devils to a 1-0 overtime win over the Philadelphia Flyers.

John Moore kept the extra session short when he scored 59 seconds into overtime.

“It starts with a great play by Kyle Palmieri to bring that puck back into our zone,” Moore said. “The 3-on-3 overtime is so much about possession, and we were able to catch them in a change. That was a big-league pass by Hall and an easy one to put in. I was the beneficiary of some high-end skill by [Hall].”

It was Kinkaid’s first shutout of the season.

“Sometimes you just have it and I was in the zone and feeling good,” Kinkaid said. “The guys were always there if I had a bad rebound, and they cleared it away. It was definitely good to get a win after what happened on Saturday (a 3-0 loss at Philadelphia).”

Steve Mason made 26 saves in the loss as both clubs were playing through their schedules with no playoff berth in the future.

“You have to have pride in your game, regardless of the situation,” Mason said. “You just can’t pack it in with two games remaining. You have to be professional about it.”
