GDT: Devils @ Blues - A Charlie Brown Christmas! - 8:00 PM - MSG

[TheUnseenHand]

What the hell was that stupid ass clear?

 

[Louskoolaid89]

Someone tell the Blues this time they don't have a 3-0 lead to protect.

Bill REALLY wants to start a fight with Bleed

I like Bill but my money is on Bleed there

 

[Emperoreddy]

Not to mention he's clearly so happy to be a part of this group again. Bill was just speaking about it in the broadcast now too.

He's a perfect role player and locker room presence for this group, even if he's not the player he once was.

Kind of why I'm not in favor of trading him. He is solid depth if we need to move a winger up the line up due to injury. He is really cheap. And he is really well liked.

Vibes matter

 

[devilsfan950003]

He's lost his scoring touch (he has 12 goals in his last 100 games) but he does enough other things well that he's fine for his role. I'd rather have a non-finishing player like him than MacDermid and his 5 minutes.

Tatar is a fine winger for the fourth line. He can also be moved up the lineup if needed.

 

[Saugus]

They just look confident right now. Things are coming together and they understand the assignment.

Just don’t want to peak too soon. Save some for the playoffs.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Strong save by Marky.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

When I see the best power play in hockey, my first thought is, let's take an elite dman who perfectly fills what it needs off of it.

but the powerplay is nowhere near as important as 5 on 5 play is, and it is also very volatile

 

[theoptimist]

Galaxy brain exit by Dougie there

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

When I see the best power play in hockey, my first thought is, let's take an elite dman who perfectly fills what it needs off of it.

My first thought is “I enjoy this powerplay”, and then I look at the larger picture.

Bill REALLY wants to start a fight with Bleed

He certainly has a burner account on here

 

[Comparison Ford]

Siegenthaler really playing one of his best games of the year tonight.

 

[Emperoreddy]

We will win Dougie a cup this year before we wish him well on future endeavors.

Does that work for everyone?

 

[jkrdevil]

It’s 3-0 and we are speed bagging them. Why are we having the Dougie offseason debate? There’s a lot of hockey to be played between now and that decision. Enjoy the hockey.

 

[Its Always Sundstrom]

Like cream cheese.

 

[Hisch13r]

There's the patented Marky softy

 

[Forge]

Damnit

 

[Its Always Sundstrom]

Should I like that the physical therapists are JAGs?

 

[BostonDevil]

Meh

 

[Emperoreddy]

Lmfao Bill's call on that goal

 

[Saugus]

Well that sucks.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Stupid ass jinx about Nico's faceoffs.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Dang Marky. That’s a weird one

 

[Guadana]

He's lost his scoring touch (he has 12 goals in his last 100 games) but he does enough other things well that he's fine for his role. I'd rather have a non-finishing player like him than MacDermid and his 5 minutes.

Yeah its always better to have hockey player in the roster who can play hockey other than player who can't.
Btw on my taste having 8-9 goals for 1.5 mil bottom line player is okay, especially when this player is hard on forecheck and playing well positionally.

Not to mention he's clearly so happy to be a part of this group again. Bill was just speaking about it in the broadcast now too.

He's a perfect role player and locker room presence for this group, even if he's not the player he once was.

We were great with Tatar two years ago, we are great now. May be he is the right locker room guy. Who is very good to play against in the same time.


I understand that he can't score on the same rate, but his salary isn't about 15-20 goals. He doesn't have too. But our top players needs rest sometimes and we need competent players on the ice to not worry about them. Tatar is competent.

Darn
