Big Chris Pronger and Mike Richards scored second-period goals as the Flyers rode the momentum of claiming the NHL's last playoff berth on the final day of the regular season to yet another win over New Jersey.
While the Flyers are the No. 7 seed in the conference, they won five of six games against the Devils in the regular season and second-seeded New Jersey had few answers in the postseason against a rock-solid Boucher.
With the win, the Flyers grabbed home-ice advantage, heading into Friday night's game in the best-of-7 series, which also will be played at the Prudential Center.
