PHILADELPHIA — The New Jersey Devils are still searching for that elusive first win.
Carter Hart stopped 25 shots for his first career shutout to lift the Philadelphia Flyers to a 4-0 win over the Devils (0-2-1) on Wednesday night.
Ivan Provorov scored for the Flyers, and so did Kevin Hayes, Sean Couturier and Travis Konency as part of a three-goal third period in their home opener.
The Flyers played for the first time since they beat the Chicago Blackhawks last week in Prague as part of the NHL’s Global Series.
Hart stopped 28 shots in that 4-3 win, and the 21-year-old was even better playing in his first NHL opening night.
