Nemec seems to be coming alive offensive at least. Second three point night in the last few games?

 

[Devils731]

Definitely feels better now that he’s doing things like this.

Comets at 10-18-2-2/24 Pts are currently 17 Pts behind 4th/5th place Toronto and Syracuse tied at 41 Pts each. 5th place is the final playoff spot.. A monumental task to even consider. Those upcoming 9 games could bury them with no possible way out. That's of course if the optimists among the Utica fan base could even think it possible. I'd dream it, but realistically hope NJ sees the errors in their ways and makes an effort to build a better team in Utica next season. This current squad is underwhelming despite the little uprisings they have before dumping a few in a row every time. We won't even go back to how many they had to lose before even winning their 1st.
