I don’t think you can hand wave their bad play over the last however many games anymore. Yeah, they’ve won games, but the prevailing play has been awful. Without the PP, they’ve gotten tilted even strength.
Which games are those where their play was bad? Don't think they've been bad at all lately.

anyone who says mercer is having a bounce back season and doesn’t mean “he looks like his head bounced back off the pavement at 86 miles an hour” is a “drink turkey gravy through a straw” level of mentally disabled.

the devils haven’t had a bigger bitch ass loser on their team for as long as i’ve been watching them.

Actually think they can come back in this one, but yeah, it's been a rough one.
If they came back and won this, it'd be the weirdest season series against a team I can remember because that would be like what, 7 of a possible 8 points against Washington and I feel like the majority of the time between all 4 games the devils mostly got their teeth kicked in?

Mercer should be stapled to the bench for the entire third period. We were in good shape at 2-1…that boneheaded penalty turned the tide. I’m thinking about g
his late selfish, unnecessary penalty in the early season loss in Detroit…and it’s getting me even more pissed. He’s a nice kid but damn….

They're losing a game they should be losing, they're getting outclassed by the Caps since puck drop and you guys are more worried about bitching about certain players. Like I said, if Timo buries the chance at 2-1 then this game leads to a blowout, Mercer is obviously the biggest idiot tonight but our PK on the 3-2 goal was laughable beyond belief. And then there's no way you lose a puck battle on the fourth goal when Pesce and Siegs were the first two in the defensive zone. They're getting what they deserved simply, maybe if you start games on time this shit wouldn't happen lol.

Someone will no doubt say this is poor timing and a weird time to bring this up, but we're almost 30 games in and Palat playing with the stars is a complete and utter sandbag on the two stars and the team.

Guy on pace for 19 or 20 points and playing with two of the three best players/forwards on the team?

Palat is the worst top-6 player we've had in YEARS. And I don't mean ''Well we called up Charlie Jabroni to play 28 games while whoever was injured for half the year not too long ago''.

As far as full time players go, this is a joke. Palat circa almost 2025 might be closer to Sergey Kalinin at this point than he is to an average top-6 player in the league. And that's considering that not every player on a team's top-6 is a true top-6 player.

Yeah I’m reaching back to SJ and Tampa, but obviously they had a good stretch in between. Just too many no shows and it can’t be swept under the rug.

the season is 82 games long

I don't understand getting caught up in one or two games here or there. Every team has these kinds of games sometimes. Its frustrating but it isn't that big of a deal.
