With New Jersey goalie Martin Brodeur on the bench for a sixth attacker, Ryan Callahan tracked down an off-target pot shot by Bryan Boyle and tapped it home from short range before the Devils could regroup. He added an assist in the contest to bring his postseason mark to 4-4-8 in 17 games. (Updated 05/19/2012).

05/23/2012 22:48 Devils escape collapse after 3-0 lead, prevail in Game 5 against Rangers
Ryan Carter snapped a tie with 4:24 left, and the New Jersey Devils posted a 5-3 victory over the New York Rangers after blowing a three-goal lead in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on Wednesday.
Callahan set career-highs in goals (23), assists (25), power-play goals (10) and shorthanded points (7) and he did so despite missing 22 games to injuries, last season. Widely considered the most likely skater to inherit the captaincy role from former Ranger Chris Drury, Callahan plays with a reckless abandon, which feeds his effectiveness. However, being a smaller player does inflate his risk of injury, especially considering he was injured twice last season while blocking shots. Callahan is a solid depth player worth a mid-to-late draft pick in standard fantasy leagues and should push the 55-60 point mark in 2011-12. Where he really shines is in pools that are deep on secondary categories like hits, blocks, and shorthanded points. (Updated 10/4/11)
