The New Jersey Devils continue their winning ways with a 4-1 victory over the current 8th place Carolina Hurricanes Saturday night in Raleigh, North Carolina.  The team has now won 7 straight games, and is just 10 points out of the 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.  Going 15-1-2 over your last 18 games will help any team find themselves chasing a playoff berth.  Many questioned how the Devils would come out on the road to start the game after beating the Rangers in a fiery, emotion-filled battle the night before.  The Devils addressed the topic immediately.  Zubrus scored just 1:14 into the game, and the Devils never turned back.  Defenseman Henrik Tallinder and Brian Rolston added goals of their own to give the Devils a 3-0 lead after 1.  That would be more than enough for the win.  Patrick Dwyer scored with just over 13 minutes remaining to cut the Canes' deficit to 3-1, but Zubrus squashed all hopes of a miraculous comeback with his second goal of the game with just 8:17 left to play.  DEVILS: 4   CANES: 1
ARE YOU A BELIEVER YET???
