Final
Flyers look to end road losing streak against Devils
Jan 4, 2008 - 12:36 PM Philadelphia (19-14-4) at New Jersey (22-14-3) 7:00 pm ESTNEWARK, New Jersey (Ticker) - The New Jersey Devils will look to make it four consecutive victories over the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday.
The Devils lost the first game of the season between the teams, but have outscored the Flyers, 14-5, in the last three.
New Jersey has dominated the series of late, posting a 13-1-1 record in the last 15 regular season meetings.
Philadelphia has rebounded from a six-game losing streak to win its last three, including a 1-0 decision at Florida on Sunday.
"I think our team is finding ways to win right now," Philadelphia coach John Stevens said. "The talk before was that we were finding ways to lose and letting games slip away."
The Flyers haven't won in New Jersey since a 3-1 victory on March 9, 2004. Philadelphia's record against the Devils in that span is 0-8-2.
Martin Brodeur has been in goal for New Jersey in every game against the Flyers in the recent run, posting a 2.17 goals-against average.
Philadelphia right wing Scottie Upshall missed Sunday's game with a sprained right ankle, but has not been ruled out for Friday. Defenseman Randy Jones has missed three of the last four games with a knee injury and isn't likely to play.
Devils' left wing Patrik Elias, who has missed last two games with a groin injury, is expected to play either on Friday or Saturday at Boston.
