Way to jump to conclusions.

...I think this is our cue to say something snarky about this being why Gaudreau didn't pick them? I'm not sure, I don't know how this trolling about months-old free agency decisions thing works.
But in all seriousness, I don't believe they're cooked just because of a bad streak.

Is it schadenfreude? Is it an attempt at a reverse jinx thread? Stay tuned to find out!!!
Their fans were a little arrogant to start the season. They will likely be fine though and make the playoffs.
From some of the 'fans' that post in our board's GDT's, yes it's all over. Losing hard for Bedard.

As always, the truth is somewhere in the middle. Good team with flashes of being great. They'll make the playoffs and grow a lot this year, but they aren't SC contenders by any means.

Fickle fanbase, they’ll be fine and make the playoffs. Division winner, maybe not.
They’ve outplayed their opponents by a fair margin their last three losses but the offense has dried up. They obviously aren’t 130 pt team. This seems like a bit of a regression towards the mean right now.

They’re probably still great. Most really good teams still have losing streaks in a season. Much of their core is still young which makes it more likely.

It's over. Hopefully they can recoup something for bust prospects like Holtz.
Maybe they'll get Trevor Moore for him and can say he is the best forward in the league next year after he has a couple good games in October.

Every team has its ups and downs. We knew devils couldn’t hold their pace, time for them to go on a decline for a little before picking it up again.
They will be fine

Yeah, sure. Just outplayed the Rangers, Stars, Flyers and have 1 point to show from it. Blow it up.

They'll be fine.The season is long and winning streaks are usually accompanied by losing streaks. I'm sure some expert on here will call them paper tigers, but take that with a laugh.

Dominated the Flyers, and slightly outplayed the Rangers. Didn't see the Stars game.

Haven't checked lately, but I do know Emil Bemstrom's defensive metrics look really good.

Not sure how much you trust in moneypuck but there you go. Not taking anything from the Stars but the Devils were the better team in that game, that was probably their biggest toss up game from this losing streak. Their luck from the W13 is coming back to bite them in this L4.
