New Jersey Devils Thread

Keep the train rolling.

Rangers love giving up 4 unanswered goals lately

Lindy I'm stupid, you're smart.

I was wrong you were right.

You're the best, I'm the worst.

Uhhhh, you're very good looking, I'm not attractive.



Schmid stood on his head tonight.

[Derek Smalls]

18 shots and 11 straight road wins, nbd.

Sorry Lindy.

That last minute was more hectic than I would have liked.

I know Chicago is really bad, but the Devils beat the ever loving excrement out of them last night.

Wonder if Patty Kane took a look across the ice and thought "hmmmmm." Would love to have his experience in the room for a playoff run even if the price is a first and a prospect like Stillman.

Devils currently 21-4.  Kane’s 34 yrs. old.

GP   G   A   P   +/-
25   4   16   20   -14

A prospect plus a 1st?  I don’t think anything’s broken that needs fixin’ with the Devils

He's also an absolute turd of a man.

I wouldn't go higher than a first and prospect of the ilk of a Shakir Mukhamadullin. I hope that Palat comes back and is healthy, but there's something to be said about adding playoff experience to a room that has almost none of it.

He's also an absolute turd of a man.

Especially if you're a Buffalo cabbie.

Or a junior player being sexually abused by a coach of the team of which he's the captain.

In fairness, Toews was the captain.

As much as we're in fundamental agreement on how the Blackhawks as an organization failed Kyle Beach and deserve to lose forever because of it, (and I have absolutely zero issue if people like Quenneville and Bowman never worked in hockey again), I think the list of people who failed in that scenario is super long before we get to Kane.

You're right, he had an A. But I don't think that massively changes the fact that not only did the team know, they mocked and chirped Beach about it while the veteran leaders on the team like Kane stood by and said nothing (or worse, joined in) because winning hockey games was more important to them.

Others hold a higher degree of culpability but I wouldn't want spineless turds like Kane anywhere near any team I cheer for.

I'd prefer not root for Kane, but the idea of adding someone with Stanley Cup experience is appealing. I wouldn't be in a rush to make a trade though. Plenty of time before the deadline. But this team is good enough to win a Cup, so I'm all for trying to add to this roster at the deadline.

Plus, Luke Hughes potentially come playoff time.

Agreed. Absolutely no rush, especially since Palat will be coming back hopefully in mid-February and will be able to provide the postseason know-how that the team just doesn't have right now.

But if all it's going to cost is a first and a B-level prospect, I'm all about it as much as I don't like the character of the player. This team has two of the best defensive prospects (Hughes is probably the best) in the game, and youth all throughout the system with guys like Stillman, Foote, Walsh, etc. The perception of the franchise as a wasteland ever since Zach and Kovy left can change right now. Plus it shows Bratt they're willing to do whatever it takes and he should sign already.

[mj2sexay]

Absolutely much needed W today. Hell of a comeback.

I know I apologized to Lindy, but he needs to freaking stop putting Haula on Jack's line. Having him out there as the extra man a couple days ago was freaking absurd. He's a third line center. He's a decent third line center. Stop trying to smash a square peg in a round hole.

I can't wait to see what this team looks like next year with Luke and Nemec.

As an aside...those "heritage" jerseys are freaking disgusting, I wish they'd burn them already.

[mj2sexay]

What a fuckin dub. Great game from Mercer.

Vitek played well, two of those goals aren't on him.

LFG.
