Lowell needed only 24 seconds to get the first goal as Vladimir Zharkov fired a centering pass from the
near corner that banked off goalie Dustin Tokarski and into the net.ADVERTISEMENT

The Devils made the score, 2-0, in their favor when Michael Swift redirected Olivier Magnan’s shot inside
the near post at 12:12 of the first.

Brandon Bochenski made things interesting in the second, scoring his league-leading 12th goal of the
season at 12:33 of the period.
