NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs


The New Jersey Devils are in the Eastern Conference final for the first time since winning the 2003 Stanley Cup. 

Martin Brodeur made 27 saves as the Devils eliminated Philadelphia with a 3-1 Game 5 win. 

David Clarkson got the game winning goal when flyers Netminder Ilya Bryzgalov's clearing attempt rebounded off his stick and went  into the net.

The Devils could find out who they'll meet in the Eastern Conference final tonight as the New York Rangers have a 3-2 lead in their series versus Washington.

If the Capitals force a game 7 it wouldn't be played until Saturday.
