GDT: Crapitals @ Devils 7:00 PM

[Jersey Fresh]

Maybe we’ll get a game management call in the third. Knowing us they’ll wait till two minutes left to find an infraction on them.

 

[Devs3cups]

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.

 

[John Pedro]

Also, having Palat dragging Jack and Bratt is such a sacrilege

 

[MB3]

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.

 

[Forge]

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?

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

Actually think they can come back in this one, but yeah, it's been a rough one.

Not if Keefe keeps putting out Mercer with how bad he's been in this game

 

[longislanddevil]

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….

 

[BostonDevil]

our players are so weak on the boards

three players and you can't win the f***ing puck

Where is this coming from? We have like 7 guys who's only redeeming quality is that they win pucks on the boards.

 

[DVision44]

Better team scores more goals sorry

Huh?

 

[Dialamo]

Actually think they can come back in this one, but yeah, it's been a rough one.

We've scored at least one goal. I like our chances.

 

[NJDevs26]

lol yeah for sure man

bet you were saying the same thing last week when we beat their ass

Without Ovechkin…and they’re cooking us tonight without Ovechkin

 

[Mirka the Turka]

We need better goaltending

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

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.

 

[Devs3cups]

Without Ovechkin…and they’re cooking us tonight without Ovechkin

We beat them in their own barn at the start of the year and they had Ovi. Was a very good game too.

 

[Killing Joke]

Actually think they can come back in this one, but yeah, it's been a rough one.

They gave the caps a 2 goal lead in what is supposed to be their best period.

They are also winless after going into the third trailing this game is done.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

That’s not how I would describe their play at all over the last however many games. Mostly excellent in all game states.

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.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Without Ovechkin…and they’re cooking us tonight without Ovechkin

They're #1 in the league in goals for and Ovechkin hasn't played in 2 weeks, this isn't some 2009 Caps team reliant on him, lmao

 

[NJDevs26]

We need better goaltending

What goal was Allen supposed to stop ffs, the one where everyone picked their noses behind the net? The one on the 4-on-2.5?

 

[Bleedred]

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.

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.

[HersheyBob27]

Huh?

Not real hard to comprehend bro

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Also, having Palat dragging Jack and Bratt is such a sacrilege

Jack should be getting a fair bit of shit too.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

We need better goaltending

That's really the last issue to worry about tonight.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

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.
