Hughes' second of the night lifts Devils past Blackhawks in OT

Hughes' second of the night lifts Devils past Blackhawks in OT NEWARK, N.J. – Not only did defenseman Dougie Hamilton pay instant dividends for the New Jersey Devils, Jack Hughes had a game worthy of a No. 1 overall pick. Hughes scored his second goal of the game less than a minute into overtime, the high-priced Hamilton scored on his first shot as a Devil and New Jersey posted a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks after blowing a late two-goal lead on Friday night. "I mean, it was awesome," said Hamilton, who signed a seven-year, $63 million free-agent contract in the offseason. "It's nice to have that, for sure. It's been a while since we had crowds but just to have them back and loud and excited, it was awesome." The fans got a wild game.
