GDT: Devils @ Canes - Stanley Cup Playoffs - Rd 2, Gm 5 - 7:00 PM - TNT

Henrik is shockingly good as an analyst

"More Marino, less Graves."

Biz with the bullseye.

This board: Bratt is soft and won't drive the net
First highlight of the intermission: Bratt lowering his shoulder and driving to the net

Lol

The question was if he went to the center of the ice. He did. He took some big hits behind the net trying to make plays too. It’s good to see, but continue the hate circle jerk.

Even on that play he never actually crossed past the goalie. Bailed out late and went past the net.

 

[jkrdevil]

The TNT intermission panel is actually good when not trying to yuck it up. Lundpads talking about needing the first pass and Biz immediately says “less Graves”.

 

[D3vilsH0ck3y]

Was not pretty by any means, their pressure is causing major issues. With that said put your boots on and keep working. One Period at a time chip away. Got crushed this whole series in the 2nd, next 20 minutes will tell the story I think.

by all accounts very likeable

shame he was a ranger

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Severson just trying to remind us that he can be worse than Graves if we'd like.

That's the guy who's going to get 7x7 this offseason

 

[JimEIV]

We really need to have a good 2nd and get the next goal.

 

[TheNeutralZone]

I'm sure Graves' agent just loves his client getting roasted during intermission of a playoff game.

Go get that bag, Ryan! Go get that bag...

 

[guitarguyvic]

Didn’t Graves have a bad playoff reputation in Colorado? He looks like straight ass garbage.

 

[Its Always Sundstrom]

If I never see that caveman BB face ever game it still would be too soon. f*** him, his animals, his ranch and anyone related to him.

Too bad he doesn't do that more often instead of taking it along the boards and getting pounded after a little dispy-do. Of course there's another team playing who knows this and will do whatever necessary to pin him on the boards.

If only he'd gotten to the Caps in 2017

Yes he did, and not just reputation...I saw it myself too.

Ya sports radio has similarly become a cheesy “guy” humor/sports blend.

Frustrating.

Yeah and so did Tatar...oh wait

 

[NjDevsRR]

Second half of period was good

Continue dat

 

[OmNomNom]

Yeah and so did Tatar...oh wait

most of our team is pretty ass though, so many underperformers

You don't have to be a Stanley Cup winner to be a good analyst so I'm not surprised.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Even on that play he never actually crossed past the goalie. Bailed out late and went past the net.

So he should’ve just plowed the goalie and taken a dumb interference penalty like Timo? It was a fine play.

It doesn’t matter what he does. It’s all about points, period. He can’t do it in the playoffs because points.

Bratts been invisible the whole playoffs ...... good thing your not the GM or he would be getting 11 mil. for not showing up. I so wish we could use him for trade bait for Connor Hellebuyck who wants out of Winnipeg

 

[MadDevil]

Every time Graves has the puck in the defensive zone I just assume he's going to not clear it or make a stupid pass that is easily intercepted by a Cane player.

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

The difference is, certain players have been ass for awhile and thus labeled as playoff chokers. We don't know what we have yet with the young guys. I don't think Bratt has it though.

 

[DerekDevils30]

The first half of that period was pretty gross, but I really like the way we finished... Except the last minute giveaway.
Just a little patience and room and we are going to be ok.

Canes missed a few glorious chances in that period before the Devils scored. I hope we look back on that as the moment they let us back off the mat.
