Jesper Bratt Makes History In Thursday's Win
2 years agoNew Jersey Devils right wing Jesper Bratt continued his red-hot start to the season with his fifth goal of the campaign in Thursday's 4-3 victory over Edmonton, posting a new franchise record for the longest season-opening point streak. The Swedish speedster has earned a point in 11 consecutive outings, breaking a tie with Tim Higgins, who had held the record since 1994-95. Bratt made history at the perfect time as well, as his goal was the game-winner 3:08 from the end of regulation. With Ryan Graves having tied the game just seven seconds earlier, there was reason to celebrate another franchise record, as it's the fastest two goals the Devils have scored. Bratt broke out last year with a 73-point campaign in 76 games, and it sure looks like he will do even better this term. Calgary will be the next team to try to cool down Bratt. He will enter Saturday's matchup with 17 points.

Jesper Bratt Tallies Three Points In Victory
3 weeks agoNew Jersey Devils left wing Jesper Bratt tallied three points during their 5-3 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday evening. In the opening frame, Bratt would tally two of his points. First, he would earn the primary assist on Nico Hischier's power-play strike. Later in the period, Bratt would find the back of the net during 5-on-5 play. Then in the third, Bratt would tally his final point, this time on the secondary assist on Luke Hughes' goal. Leading up to Tuesday's contest, Bratt tallied just two points (two assists) and held a -4 rating over his last six games. However, before this slump, Bratt was quite productive as he held a 10-game point streak. The 26-year-old will look to kickstart another offensive surge on Thursday against the Oilers.
