Homestanding Devils plan to extend Flames’ misery

While the playoffs don't appear to be in the cards for the New Jersey Devils this season, at least they're playing well on their longest home stretch of the season.

Meanwhile, the road continues to be a problem for the lowly Calgary Flames.

Vying to bounce back after its four-game winning streak came to an end, the Devils aim to hand the Flames a fifth straight road defeat on Thursday night in Newark, N.J.

New Jersey entered play Wednesday 12 points out of the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.
