Kudos to columbus. They had a crazy run since mid November to early February. Something like a .730 pts % in that stretch. They are back to 50-50 hockey lately,

Devils play definitely did collapse after 12/27, but the games in hand is an additional reason why we lost ground.

We played 2-6 games more than everyone on that date.

This helps us though in terms of rest at the end of the season. Look at the April schedule. Lots of rest and not much traveling to end the season before a playoff push (hopefully)

Jackets whole season might depend on the next week. Tough one against Vegas tomorrow. Huge game against the Rags on Thursday then us on Monday.

I don’t get the Brady talk.

I’m pretty high on him, Noesen has been great as a net front PP guy but Brady would feast there with us.

Hell, I was open to trading Nemec for him last year in a fantasy trade that will never happen because Ottawa isn’t trading him anytime soon.

He’s signed for 3 more years, they’re trying to win with him.

So who f***ing cares?

We do have that one brutal weekend coming up, March 28-31 Jets and a home and home with the Wild. But other than that our schedule is good

I’d take him on this team in a heartbeat, but I think a lot of people let their obsession with his fisticuffs blind their judgement.
Nah it's the complete package. He's a dick too. Personally I think that's an element that is severely lacking on this team...

He's 6'4 225 going on his 4th consecutive 30 goal season...he's a a career .8 PPG player and he can play the game any way you want to play it....that combo is a special player and we haven't had anything remotely close to that since Jamie Langenbrunner...and he wasn't even that.
