Devils discussion (news, notes and speculation) - playoff edition

[Bleedred]

This was years ago when it was still the fire and ice lounge. Some of the worst stomach pain ever.

And I've felt the wrath of those mucho nachos before...

I used to love the mucho nachos. Bummer that they went away. Probably a decade ago, but I’ve only been to the two Jersey retirement games at home since 2012.

By the way, the Indian restaurant comment was a Sopranos reference during Tony’s fever dream where he realized p***y turned informant. When Tony has mussels from Vesuvio and blames it on Artie, until Carmela tells Artie that Tony stopped at an Indian restaurant first and blames it on that.

And Tony says the mussels came up undigested.

I was bummed no one got the reference that quickly.

I'm actually the only native New Jerseyian that hasn't seen the Sopranos all the way through. (ducks tomatoes)

I haven't either. I watched the first couple of seasons and I still never saw the finally except in memes. And random episodes here and there.

Cannot extrapolate what Stephenson did on the Kraken, to what Stephenson could have done on the Devils. Stephenson playing 3rd line minutes on this Devils team (a perennial contender), looks much different than him playing hard 1st line minutes for the Kraken. He would have the Tavares role on this team, not the Matthews role. Even playing so poorly, he has just 7 fewer points than Cotter and Mercer combined. I'm using points because I'm immune to xG. Took that vaccine before the pandemic.

The deal is ugly for the Kraken because they are a desperate team. This would not have been an ugly deal for a team that's 2 bottom-6 pieces away from winning the Cup (which I think we are). And UFA contracts are all about the player and less about the team. The players earn their career paycheck and the teams use big UFAs to fill major gaps they can't via trade/draft/etc. I don't expect him to finish all 6 years in Seattle, and if he does, that means Kraken have improved.

I look forward to seeing what Bennett gets on his next deal.

You don't get to use his first line point totals as a point for him while blaming every failure on that role

This is NJ Angels erasure.

I made a hat a few years back

Edit: I have no f***ing idea where I put it

Find it and find a way to 3D print that sucker.

That's crazy because I'm trying to literally make the same exact one. I want it on a black New Era snapback just like that one. The logo came out great. Where did you get it done ? I need to make one just like that and if anyone on here wants one as well, I'd be glad to make extras and ship them to you.
