Devils defenseman Brenden Dillon’s bone-crushing, open-ice hit on Flyers forward Owen Tippett was the exact response the Devils desperately needed. Not only for physical revenge, but also to get the Devils back on track.

While the Flyers held their own in the first period of Wednesday night’s game at the Prudential Center, the middle frame was something you don’t save the video from. The Devils scored four times, drove Flyers starting goaltender Samuel Ersson from the net and went to a 5-0 payback victory.
