Bratt notched two assists, three hits and two shots on goal in Monday's 5-0 win over the Rangers.

On Dec. 23 the New Jersey Devils hosted the New York Rangers for their last game before the holiday break. While the Rangers were on a losing streak, the Devils were able to extend their streak, defeating the Rangers 5-0 for their second shutout victory in a row.

Jesper Bratt got ahold of the puck ... Stefan Noesen extended the New Jersey Devils lead to 4-0 at 12:00 for his 16th of the season after finishing a tic-tac-toe passing play with Timo Meier and Nico Hischier. Meier had turned in low in the right circle ...

The Devils defeat the Rangers 5-0. The way the Devils have stifled their opponent's opportunities made for yet another low-shot outing for Jacob Markstrom. New Jersey's netminder posts his second shutout in a row, requiring just 12 saves for the victory. Just two nights ago, Markstrom shut out the Penguins also required just 12 saves.

Even though Jack Hughes has turned heads with his play all season long, there's a strong argument to say Bratt has been the Devils' best player since the beginning of December. The 26-year-old right winger has three goals and 11 points since the beginning of the month and is also riding a four-game point streak.

Ondrej Palat and Stefan Noesen scored and the New Jersey Devils beat the St. Louis Blues 4-1. Brenden Dillon also scored and Jesper Bratt added an empty-net goal for the Devils, who won their third straight game and fifth out of their last seven.

New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes finished Monday's game against the New York Rangers with two goals and one assist.
