Last night’s pre-season game between the New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia Flyers was action-packed.
Devils’ Samuel Laberge and Flyers’ Sawyer Boulton dropped the gloves not once but twice in a game after a very scary moment in the first tilt.
Sawyer is the son of Eric Boulton, who played for the Devils in 2011-12. Thankfully, he was okay and returned to the game after heading to the dressing room.
In the second period, Boulton and Laberge decided to drop the gloves yet again; this time it ended with Laberge going down first.
With the Devils main roster playing tomorrow in the NHL Global Series in Prague against the Buffalo Sabres. The lineup that has been playing the last few pre-season games is more of the AHL Utica Comets’ lineup.
If Boulton is sent to the AHL, it’ll make the Utica versus Lehigh Valley Phantoms games much more interesting with what seems to be a bit of a rivalry between these two.
