GDT: Capitals @ The Inglorious Basterds - 7PM MSGSN

[Devs3cups]

uh, what? Timo Meier doesn't create offense for himself?

youre being serious?

Timo's not playing his best to start, but yeah, that's just not knowing Meier as a player at all.

 

[theoptimist]

Lazar doesn't quit

 

[Mirka the Turka]

Wait you think it’s weird an awful team got rid of a prime aged guy who was playing really well? That’s just you not understanding how things work.

You can retain some of your core while you rebuild. You get rid of Karlsson because he's older but they could have maintained Meier.

But the reason they didn't maintain him is because they knew he wasn't good long term.

 

[Team Concept]

Kind of terrifying that they thought Smith was so far ahead of Miller. Lindy must have thought he was god awful

I wanted Colin Miller to replace Severson. Not Brendan Smith!!! He is a 7th defenseman.

 

[Hisch13r]

I think the best spot for Meier is to staple him to Hughes wing. But you’re gonna need someone on the other side who has some two way awareness. Wouldn’t hate the Haula experiment again if I am being honest.

Meier’s shot rate plummeted with Jack and so did Jack’s. That’s the last spot he should be.

 

[TF1970]

Still, f*** Vitek.

I’m tired of how many chances he’s gotten this year, for a guy that I don’t even think management gives a single shit about.

It seems more about keeping Schmid out then keeping Vanecek in.

He needs to ride Schmid like Daws in 2021-2022 or this time he may not keep his job.

I don’t disagree. It seems like the coach for some reason has some issue with him in terms of leash. Even after he jumped in and saved everyone’s asses in the rangers series. And nearly won game 5 of the canes series.

When exactly has he done it as a Devil? This has serious Kovalsuck 2009 vibes

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

I thought it was weird a team was getting rid of a high goal scoring RFA

Now I see why. The fact that this dude somehow got more money than Bratt is astounding.

the Sharks are absolutely pitiful and werent gonna sign Meier

youre questioning why they'd trade him..........?

 

[Bleedred]

Give Lindgren credit! He’s made 10 saves in 35 minutes!

Lick a battery Dano.

This is asinine.

 

[BahlDeep]

Feels like I'm watching the Devils in 2016

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Wake up Smith!

 

[Hisch13r]

He created last year but had no puck luck.

I dont think you're watching the same player if your take is "Meier doesn't create offense for himself"

 

[Devs3cups]

Lmfao Smith. Can't have Nemec up though, he might make mistakes.

 

[None Shall Pass]

Bahl and Smith as a pairing is a terrible, terrible idea.

 

[NJDevs26]

And where exactly is Jesper ‘better than Jack’ lately?

 

[Its Always Sundstrom]

Give Lindgren credit! He’s made 10 saves in 35 minutes!

Lick a battery Dano.

9V or car?

 

[Cheddabombs]

They're playing like the toilet paper lineups

just absolutely ridiculous. One of the worst takes I've seen tonight and that is saying something.

 

[Bleedred]

9V or car?

Either or

 

[Blender]

 

[TF1970]

Meier wants the puck on his stick. Him playing with Hughes doesn't really work.

It hasn’t worked with anyone really which I guess is the biggest issue on the Meier front

 

[FinnishDevil]

Men women or Devils. Best part of tonight for sure.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Bahl and Smith as a pairing is a terrible, terrible idea.

Smith with anybody right now is a terrible pairing.
