Carolina the real, the Rangers the jabroni

Just like last series, the Devils will adjust. Carolina isn't going to win this series handily.

The only adjustments they will make are goalie changes and trapping more. Will be a big mistake if the Devils turn this in to a track meet. Their horrible defense is masked by hitting on stretch passes now and then, but as a group they are slow and soft against a good forecheck.

Too easy for NJD to neutralize the Rangers zone entries.

I think NJD needs to make the reads for their defense super easy and quick. Don't allow CAR to forecheck and force your defense into mistakes. It just looks like a slog most of the time tonight for NJD to transition to offense (but the moments when it isn't a slog, they seem to get their best chances). Good way to minimize the effects of their speed.

Lindy Ruff was our assistant coach and couldn't help make in-game adjustments. He suddenly is an expert at it now that he's not with the Rangers.
 
Or Patches. Or Teravainen.

I’ll be shocked if they pull this series out with that IL but the Canes matchup with the Devils like the Devils matchup with us.

Spam the net with bodies and pucks. It ain’t hard.
Why do people always bring up Pacioretty as if it's some significant loss? I swear you're the 20th person I've seen claim they're riddled with injuries partially because they're missing him, they never had him lol. He's only played 5 games for the Canes, Vegas literally paid them to take him. Vegas sent my drunk uncles friends nephew along with him in exchange for future considerations lol
