Raleigh, NC (Sports Network) - The return of goaltender Martin Brodeur sparked
New Jersey on Thursday; just not in the way the Devils are accustomed to
seeing.
Brodeur, who had missed the last 13 games due to back soreness, was credited
with his third career goal and posted 17 saves in the Devils' 4-1 win over the
Carolina Hurricanes at PNC Arena.
Brodeur's marker staked New Jersey to a 1-0 lead, while Adam Henrique, Peter
Harrold and Andrei Loktionov each followed with a tally to help the Devils
snap a three-game slide.
Jeff Skinner netted the lone Carolina goal, while Dan Ellis was charged for
all four goals on 22 shots in the Hurricanes' fifth straight setback.
