Penguins lose 3-2 to New Jersey Devils in 7-round shootout
Timo Meier beat Alex Nedeljkovic in the seventh round of a shootout to lift the New Jersey Devils past the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-2 on Tuesday night.
Jack Hughes scored twice for the Devils. Nico Daws stopped 25 shots in overtime and regulation then turned away five of the seven Penguins he faced in the shootout as the Devils won for the sixth straight time in Pittsburgh.
Jesper Bratt assisted on both of Hughes’ goals to boost his season total to 45 as the Devils bounced back from a loss to lowly Buffalo by ending Pittsburgh’s modest two-game winning streak.
Rickard Rakell scored his 24th of the season for Pittsburgh and Kevin Hayes tied it with 12:07 to go in regulation. Nedeljkovic finished with 19 saves for the Penguins, including a pair of late stops against Hughes in overtime to send it to the shootout.
Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby missed several shifts in the third period after colliding with New Jersey’s Luke Hughes and Erik Haula. Crosby, who will captain Team Canada at 4 Nations, skated to the bench favoring his left arm/hand but returned after being examined in the locker room.
The Devils played most of the game without defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler, who appeared to sustain a lower-body injury in the first period when his legs gave out as he skated along the boards.
Devils: Hughes and Bratt are one of the better 1-2 punches in the league and their playmaking helps New Jersey take advantage of its chances.
Penguins: Pittsburgh picked up a point for a third straight game and are showing some fight after trading defenseman Marcus Pettersson and forward Drew O’Connor to Vancouver.
Hamilton beat Nedeljkovic in the fourth round of the shootout to extend the game with a pretty shot between the goaltender’s legs.
The defensive-minded Devils improved to 25-0-2 when leading after two periods.
Devils host Vegas on Thursday, and Penguins visit the New York Rangers on Friday.

Severe thunderstorms possible in North Jersey Saturday
This is NJ’s chance at seeing a hurricane in the 2026 season
As the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season approaches, weather experts from various outlets have begun to release their seasonal outlooks.
Severe thunderstorms are possible across North Jersey on June 6, with damaging winds, hail and heavy rain all in the forecast as a cold front moves through the region, according to the National Weather Service.
Forecasters said another hot afternoon is expected before storms develop late Saturday and continue into Saturday night. Temperatures are expected to climb well into the 80s across much of the area, with lower 90s possible in the urban Northeast New Jersey corridor.
The main threat window is expected to run from about 5 p.m. to 1 a.m., according to a Saturday morning briefing from the NWS office in New York.
The strongest storms could bring wind gusts above 58 mph, enough to damage trees and power lines and cause scattered outages. Large hail around an inch is also possible, along with heavy downpours that could lead to localized flooding in urban areas, poor drainage spots and along quick-responding streams and creeks.
The Storm Prediction Center placed most of the region under a slight risk for severe weather, a level two out of five. The highest chance for severe storms is expected to be north and west of the I-95 corridor, though forecasters said storms could affect a broader area depending on how the system develops.
The NWS said there is still some uncertainty in the forecast, including how much storm activity develops during the afternoon and whether the timing limits the severity of storms later in the day.
The storms are expected to move through as a cold front sweeps across the area. Conditions are expected to turn mainly dry Sunday and into the middle of next week, with temperatures gradually warming again.
For those heading to the Shore, forecasters also warned of a high risk of rip currents at Atlantic-facing beaches Saturday. Rip currents can sweep even strong swimmers away from shore, and the NWS said anyone visiting the beaches should stay out of the surf. Water temperatures below 60 degrees could also quickly cause hypothermia.
Officials advise residents to monitor the forecast, make sure they can receive weather alerts and move indoors if thunder is heard. During severe thunderstorms, people should stay away from windows and avoid driving through flooded roads.

Robots? Podcasts? See inside North Jersey Girl Scouts’ new Dream Lab
Girls Scouts open DreamLab in Paramus
The Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey opened its new Dreamlab in Paramus on June 5, where girls will learn robotics, crafting and indoor camping.
Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey will podcast, learn robotics and experience indoor camping thanks to a new DreamLab that opened in Paramus on June 5.
The 12,000-square-foot DreamLab, the second of its kind in the state and 12th in the country, will offer a variety of labs, workspaces, meeting rooms and other multipurpose spaces to serve North Jersey’s 19,000 Girl Scouts. The organization, open to ages 5 to 18, serves Bergen, Passaic, Morris and Sussex counties and the northern half of Warren County.
The center held a ribbon-cutting on Friday morning with Girl Scout leadership and local dignitaries, including County Executive Jim Tedesco, Commissioner Tracy Zur and Assemblymembers Lisa Swain and Chris Tully.
The Girl Scouts owned the 300 Forest Ave. location for 50 years, primarily using it as office space, but decided to reimagine the space in a $3 million renovation to create new programming space for its members.
Seeing the DreamLab get off the ground was important to Tedesco, whose mother helped found the Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey branch. During the opening ceremony, he recounted his days spent at Girl Scout camp in the summers.
“It actually shaped who I am today,” said Tedesco. “It was what helped make me realize that I wanted to give back to my community as I grew up.”
Tedesco said the space will act as a community hub not just for Girl Scouts, but for nonprofits, local schools and organizations.
A few older scouts lead a design team to help the organization plan activities that would best prepare their fellow members for the world, like investing in robotics and other STEM related activities.
“We worked together not only to design a space where girls of all ages can come to enrich themselves, but also select programs that we believe can be highly beneficial and educational,” said 18-year-old Yasmine Lalani, one of the Girl Scout design team ambassadors.
One scout alumni, 19-year-old Isabella Santa Cruz of Glen Rock, even worked with the center to help build a sensory room as a safe space for neurodivergent members.
“Inclusion isn’t just a feature, but a foundation of meaningful impact,” Santa Cruz said. “The sensory room provides a peaceful sanctuary to escape the noise, listen to their inner voices and develop the self-awareness they need to lead.”
During the DreamLab’s first day, visitors could try out the space’s many features, including a podcast room, 3D printers, a kid-safe power tool called a Chomp Saw and test out Sphero BOLT, a robotic ball that is controlled and programmed with an app.
“I’m really excited for the girls to come in here,” said Nicole Ricci, 23, a Girl Scout alumni helping people try the Sphero BOLT. “It will be a great space for them to be creative and learn.”
Sandra Kenoff, CEO of the Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey, is hopeful the DreamLab will inspire the next generation of leaders.
“From the beginning, we were committed to ensuring this space reflects the voices of the girls and the communities we serve,” said Kenoff.
