GDT: Avs @ Devils - 7:00 PM - MSG

And looking at the box score the PP won them a game ?

So strong defense and a PP goal? Wow.

And a strong PK. 6 for 6 on the kill

Unfortunately our defense has been left flatfooted and hung out to dry on more than a few occasions this season by horrible forward play. I guess they didn't have any of those breakdowns tonight?

Hischier and McLeod both saw a lot of Mackinnon tonight and completely stymied him. Forwards were all in on backchecks and were in good position throughout the night.

Finally starting to clear the Recchi stink out of the building.

Losing Kadri has destroyed their depth.

That Stank Stunk

That's really good to hear...no leaving the D zone before possession tonight?

I thought a number of forwards, Nico (bigly), Bratt, Haula, Mercer, Wood didn't allow for super easy transitions from a very talented Av's D corp.

That's EXACTLY the word I was thinking during the game. They just looked WAY more mature than they had.

That they did. Really complete game!

 

[Offseason Champs]

Really exciting win. Hopefully more games like that will start to legitimize the team in the general consciousness.

 

[NjDevsRR]

They sorta won 2-0 as well

Oh.. they did. Tatar had a number of turnovers as usual. VTEC made the key saves...

Manifesting more Fitz heists

 

[Billdo]

The PP goal came directly off our forecheck not allowing Colorado to even exit the zone. It was a good game. Colorado fans saying both teams played bad or making excuses about injuries is fun. Usually that's us.

 

[forceten]

I think this was the first time we were out shot..albeit by one shot but still!

 

[Devs3cups]

I'm trying to not get too hyped bc they were without two of their top players but man this one felt good and makes me more optimistic of the future than I was last week.

 

[Aurinko]

and close thread lol.

This is a sweet game.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Devils ranks through 8 games at 5 on 5:

CF%- 2nd (barely behind CAR)
shots for %- 1st (by far)
xGF%- 1st (by far)
SCF%- 1st
high danger CF% (1st by FAR....we have 110 and have only allowed 41!!! through 8 games)
SV%- 32nd (still but getting closer to the pack)

I was kidding. The Avs board didn't think so. They were (mostly) nice to me though lol.

Good riddance I don’t want people confusing my posts with his trash takes.

There's only room for one top dog around here!!
