The New Jersey Devils are fighting and scratching for a playoff Mathew Barzal Jerseyspot with five games left in the regular season. It looks as if the Boston Bruins are trying to give one away.

Reid Boucher scored a tiebreaking power-play goal early in the third period, Keith Kinkaid made 39 saves and the Devils kept their faint playoff hopes alive with a 2-1 victory over the struggling Bruins on Tuesday night.

''I think it was real http://www.officialislandersstore.com/Womens_Youth_Matt_Martin_Jerseyimportant for the team,'' Kinkaid said after the Devils snapped a two-game losing streak. ''We needed a bounceback game from Carolina, just to stay in the race. We can only control our games. We just have to hope there are a few losses from other teams. We just have to win our games.''

The Devils moved within five points of Philadelphia and Detroit in the race for the last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Bruins remained in third place in the Atlantic Division - a playoff spot - despite losing for the sixth time in seven games.

Detroit's 4-3 loss to Montreal kept the Red Wings from taking over third, http://www.officialislandersstore.com/Womens_Youth_Mike_Bossy_Jerseyleaving them a point behind Boston.

New Jersey, Detroit and Boston all have five games left in the regular season.

''You can look at it any way Dustin Byfuglien Jerseyyou want but you have to look at yourselves, and blame yourselves first for this loss,'' Bruins coach Claude Julien said. ''You can say you tried, but at this time of year, it's not good enough. The situation that we are in, we expect better from ourselves.''

The Bruins did everything but win. They outshot the Devils 40-15, but they were done in by penalties. New Jersey went 2 for 5 with the man advantage, with Boucher and Travis Zajac setting up each other for goals.

Boucher got the http://www.officialjetsonlinestore.com/Womens_Youth_Keith_Tkachuk_Jerseygame-winner just seven seconds after Bruins captain Zdeno Chara was called for boarding Devante Smith-Pelly. Chara objected on his way to the penalty box and his frustration quickly mounted.

The Devils won the faceoff and the puck eventually rolled to Zajac, who found Boucher alone in the right circle for his eighth goal of the season.

''We were desperate, too,'' Boucher said. ''We're not out of it by any means. We're going to try and keep this going and see what happens.''

Brad Marchand scored for the first time in nine games for the Bruins. Tuukka Rask made 13 stops.
