First Goal Contest – Devils at Rangers, Game 5 ECF

May 23, 2012 By John Hoven

After taking yesterday off, the Eastern Conference Finals resume tonight with the Rangers taking on the Devils in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals…

Simultaneously, our special edition of the First Goal Contest continues to roll right along (original article here). As previously announced, one lucky reader is going to win their choice of a team signed LA Kings stick or jersey at the end of the playoffs! If you’re interested, it’s pretty simple to play – each morning we’ll post the teams playing that particular day and you need to guess who will score the first goal of the game. To make things a little easier, you can even take a player from BOTH teams. For example, here’s what an entry would look like for tonight’s game:

New Jersey (Parise) at NY Rangers (Richards)

Please note that the maximum number of correct entries today would be one, as you’re trying to guess the first goal in the game – not for each team.

Good luck!
