I wouldn't be surprised if Reimer had enough of leafs fans' **** all season. From trolling him to trolling his wife on twitter and such.

Anyway, We need MTL / PHI need to start losing some damn games. Especially PHI.
 
Kevin Weekes is really annoying me. He tries to be perky nice guy all the time. "If I'm the Columbus Blue Jackets and you play this way on a nightly basis you'll win your share of hockey games". This was one of the ugliest games I've seen from a team in a while. Shut up Weekes.
 
Regarding Clarkson when he was on Devils I always thought he was getting lucky and playing over his head. Still how did he manage to do what he did? He was great in front of the net. What happened?
 
Watching enough Devils games, I always knew Clarkie was a terrible skater and had shoe string IQ but this season is just pitiful.

Most of us thought that was a bad contract but I don't think anyone thought he'd be this bad.
 
Michael Smith ‏@MSmithCanes 17m
#Canes ink @JustinFaulk27 to six-year contract extension with an average cap figure of $4.833 million.

I was talking to a Devils fan at the game on Saturday about Adam Larsson and all I hear is how he should be in the NHL, is being held back by the coaching staff, and how he would currently be the Devils 2nd best defenseman. I have a hard time believing the coaching staff would keep a guy on the minors if he would be the team's 2nd best d-man.

Also apparently he is "making some serious strides" in the AHL this year. Here are his stats:

4g; 15a; 19pts; -1; in 33GP last season
3g; 16a; 19pts; even, in 30GP this season

He's still young, but will he ever live up to his lofty expectations?
 
The next Lidstrom were ridiculous expectations to start with. He needs to be on a team with a coach that will trust him, let him make mistakes and grow from it.

Yeah but 10 of those points are in his last 13 games. Maybe he is coming on? Won't know until awhile, kid is still only 21.

Faulk's an excellent defender though. Contract looks solid already and has a chance of looking McDonagh-territory steal a few years from now. Faulk is a stud.

The Devils have been really, really bad at drafting lately. Larsson, Josefson, Tedenby, Corrente, Bergfors, etc. Thats not a good run of 1st rounders.

But, Kool-Aid Lou never makes mistakes....
 
Nash would need to go in any trade for E. Staal. Maybe not directly. We can't afford to have two highly paid inconsistent players on this team.
 
I know he recently got hurt recently but Patrick Kane has slowed down tremendously since the start of the new year.

He's a schill for political correctness. Is he told to do it? Who knows. He never turns down the chance to say something is offensive or saying something doesn't have a place in the game.
