New Jersey's overtime road win could be a back-breaker for the Devils who had things exactly where they wanted them before that game four loss. A win would have given them a 3-1 lead heading back to New Jersey. Now the series is tied with the advantage squarely back in New Jersey's corner. Sports, especially in the playoffs, is much about momentum and the Devils now own it. Now they know that a loss here gives it right back to Tampa Bay. They must win this game to take advantage of their position. They expect to have defenseman Colin White back for this game (missed two games). New Jersey is now 18-3 in April games the past two seasons and they are 12-1 this season after an overtime win.
