PITTSBURGH — New Jersey coach Jacques Lemaire said the Devils played as well as they can. It's taken that type of effort to beat Pittsburgh so far this season.

Nicklas Bergfors, Travis Zajac and Zach Parise each had a goal and an assist and the Devils snapped the Penguins' winning streak at seven with a 4-1 victory Saturday night.

Mark Fraser added his first career goal, and Martin Brodeur made 32 saves for the Devils, who have beaten the two teams with the most points in the Eastern Conference the past three days. They beat the New York Rangers 4-2 on Thursday night.

"I think that we played a really good, tight game," Lemaire said after his team improved to 5-0 on the road for the first time in team history. "We didn't give them much.

"I really enjoyed the game because we had no passengers; everyone did their job and was good with the puck. (The Penguins) were waiting for a little life, which we never gave them."

Alex Goligoski scored for the Penguins (9-2-0), who lost for the first time all season when Marc-Andre Fleury started a game.

The victory was a potentially costly one for the Devils. Veteran winger Jay Pandolfo left the game after being boarded by Mike Rupp 13 minutes into the second and did not return.

Lemaire described Pandolfo's prognosis as "scary," and the Devils were upset with the hit by Rupp, a former teammate.

"I got rid of the puck and got hit form behind. I don't know if there's any need for that hit," Pandolfo said. "It's disappointing. I kind of had my face against the boards, for him to come and run someone who had already gotten rid of the puck, it's a little surprising he would do that."
