BUFFALO, New York (Ticker) -- The Buffalo Sabres continue their chase for the Presidents' Trophy. The New Jersey Devils still hope to catch the Sabres.

The Devils have won two of the three regular-season meetings, but trail Buffalo by five points in the Eastern Conference.

The Sabres trail only Nashville (49-21-7) by two points in the race for the Presidents' Trophy.

Buffalo just split a home-and-home series with Toronto.

Martin Brodeur broke his own franchise record for wins with his 44th in a 3-2 victory over the New York Islanders on Tuesday.

New Jersey is tied for first place in the Atlantic Division with Pittsburgh (44-23-10).

Devils captain Patrik Elias returned to the lineup on Tuesday for the first time since straining his groin on March 15. The veteran center leads the Devils with 65 points.
