Fast-starting Devils run Rangers out of MSG in 5-1 beatdown

NEW YORK—Jesper Bratt, a Devils forward, set the tone early in Monday night’s matchup with Rangers goalie Igor Shesterkin.

Just 1:27 into the game, Bratt beat Shesterkin for the first goal after taking the puck on his own stick during a two-on-one breakaway. With the goal, the Devils ended their string of sluggish starts, demonstrated that they were too quick for the Rangers defense, and made it clear that they were committed to applying pressure on Shesterkin.
