Are the NJ Devils already collapsing?

[Tad Mikowsky]

I am actually a Devils fan somewhat as I grew up a fan of Brodeur (Largest part of my merch is Brodeur) and Elias was my favorite player after Sakic retired.

The complete arrogance of Devils fans to start the year when their team hadn't proved anything is why so many are relishing in their struggles now. Now they join the Buffalo and Habs fan clubs who learned the hard way that a good first month of a season doesn't mean anything because real hockey doesn't start until December at the earliest.

I wouldn't be upset to see them make the playoff though.

I never said they didn't. But my fanbase doesn't escape people relishing in our defeat either so not sure what your point is.

You of all people preaching arrogance is the most HockeyVirus Leafsplaining posts of all time.

Say, did the Devils lose ten in a row? You said they would. Looks like you were wrong. Again.

It’s hilarious too considering the Leafs have proven nothing either. So I’m not exactly sure where his arrogance would be coming from

 

[TampaBayLightning]

short answer- yes, long answer YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

 

[BrockLobster]

And just like that...2 pts from being out of the playoffs. Life comes at you quick.

Its truly the biggest mystery on HF. They have literally been the worst team in the NHL over the last 19 seasons yet its one of if not the cockiest fan base.

You should. Theyd both beat the devils in 6

 

[Xirik]

Are you bringing up the fact that the Islanders beat the Devils in the playoffs all the way back in 1988?

Didn't think there was anything more hillarious then a Ranger fan talking about their winning pedigree with their one cup but this could definitely take its place.

No. No im not. Where did you come up w that take? Im talking about 2022-23.

in 6 usually means in 6 games which means playoffs. The Islanders beat the Devils in 6 games back in 1988.

I don't know anyone who says "___ scored 6 goals" like the way you do but whatever floats your boat babe.

Yea theyd beat the devils in 6 games in this years playoffs.

 

[TBF1972]

dream on. this year both teams didn't qualify for the playoffs.

 

[Mirka the Turka]

I got Devils in 4 over the Islanders

The Islanders offense can't compete against the Devils. You just got coaching and goaltending, and that aint enough if you can't score.

Its tough to tell who is kidding these days. But im sure you know the isles lead the metropolitan division in goals scored yes?

 

[Voodoo Child]

I said it when he was available and think he’s vile but the Devils should have been balls deep in the Tkachuk sweepstakes - maybe they were, who knows?

Bratt, Luke Hughes and a 2nd is better than what Calgary got.

 

[VaporTrail]

Are the fans back to chanting "FIRE LINDY " now ?

 

[tabness]

been watching the third period of this Devils game and these jerseys look like Flames jerseys lol

have they been wearing them through the cold streak?

Nah, I think this was the 1st or the 2nd.

@BrockLobster

4 points now, thought I'd help since I know you've really been keeping track of it.

Someone else can correct me, but I'm reasonably sure tonight was their first win in those jerseys.

They haven't worn them frequently, but they haven't been a good luck charm lol

There are some who singing that chorus, yes.

Won in Philly with them

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Not sure are they collapsing or rather returning to their actual level.
Question could also be; did they over perform beginning of the season?.

21-22 : same head coach, 99% same roster what this season 27-46-9 record | 63 points | 248-307 GD -59

No team progresses that much in one off season with practically no changes
nor finishes a rebuild that fast either

This is going to be another one of your posts that age well?

1 win and Devils fan gets cocky... you were 1 zero and 2 - 1 down vs a team that had lost 3 in a row.

NJD Won 3 - 2 with a 4 - 2 EN goal.
- with 6 PP opportunities

If my team would have played like that
i would be very quiet and not be making
fun of other posters after just 1 game.

Lets talk again after Hurricanes game
where your chances for a win is slim to none, or games vs Blues, Rangers and 'Canes again.. though youll probably get a W over the Ducks and Red Wings
but youll still be 2 and 4 over the next 6 games.

Lol at you mentioning PP opportunities. More proof that you don't watch the games.

Devils are 23-11-2, on pace for 109 points still lol.

It's actually scary and perplexing why he's allowed to be able to post these embarrassing takes....it's weird

They are all over the boards.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

You should. Theyd both beat the devils in 6

Yeah maybe if Vanecek decides to play like 2021 Jarry or the Vanecek from the 2nd Devils v Islanders game which you almost still blew while NJ spotted the Isles a 4 goal lead.

Its tough to tell who is kidding these days. But im sure you know the isles lead the metropolitan division in goals scored yes?

Lmao and back down to 3rd you go with Devils and Pens still having a game on the Islanders.
