Cody Glass scored in his team debut and Erik Haula snapped a 28-game goal drought as the visiting New Jersey Devils handed the reeling Philadelphia Flyers a fourth straight loss with Sunday's 3-1 victory.

Fresh off a win over the NHL front-running Winnipeg Jets, the Flyers had gone 4-0-1 coming off the two-week break for the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament, and with 22 games remaining it was clear that although there was a long way to go, one could envision a path to a playoff spot for the first time in five years for this moribund franchise.

Glass snapped a shot over Flyers’ goalie Ivan Fedotov’s right shoulder between traffic for the first goal of the game at 11:10 in the first period. The Devils traded for Glass on Friday needing more offense from their bottom-six, especially centers.

The New Jersey Devils traveled to Pennsylvania, where they played the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday, March 9. This was their fourth and final matchup of the season.
