Devils Deliver!
The Devils needed to turn things around heading into week 11. They faced the struggling Bruins who seem to have trouble getting players to show up for their games.
The Devils started off slow by going down 4-1
within the first 7 minutes of the game but Rick Gagne then scored, on a beautiful deek move, to start a 3 goal outburst by the Devils. Goals by Kevin Doyle and Sam Monti tied the game at 4-4.
The Bruins took the lead again on Lenny Demetrie's 4th goal of the night before Dangerous Dan Austin turned the game around by wristing a Nick Milanovich pass, under the goalie's arm to tie the game at 5.
Rick Gagne then scored his 2nd goal of the game just 20 seconds later and Nick Milanovich added a late goal to make the score 7-5, snapping the Devils 3 game winless streak.
Rick Gagne and NicK Milanovich had 4 pts each. Gary Atkinson also scored for the Devils.
Gerrard Barraou had the other Bruins goal.
All things where not well for the Devils, however. Rick Grunwald took a deflected puck of the mouth late in the game causing a puddle of blood on the ice. Rick required several pints of 50 to enable the pain to go away. He was lucky that nothing worse happened because he required NO stitches to close the gash.
