GDT: Devils @ Golden Knights - 8:00 PM - MSG

[Billdo]

who could we even sell? Kovacevic? Mercer?

Those two, Tatar if anyone's dumb enough to offer anything. Bastian, Haula, Lazar.

Ok....who cursed this franchise after mid December?

mainboard thread

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

I also get the thought process of playing Jack/Nico in that situation but Keefe probably needs to be better there as well, they weren't generating shit at all the entire game. Hindsight is 20/20, but still

 

[Unknown Caller]

Issue is Fitz will never sell. His ass is on the line for sure if we miss the playoffs

The owners love Fitzgerald. They said less than 12 months ago that they would “sign him forever” if they could. He’s not going anywhere.

 

[Bleedred]

It doesn't matter if we made the playoffs or not, we had no real chance to contend.

Fire Fitz and get someone with a brain to build with the existing foundation

I'm kind of like Robert DeNiro in Midnight Run. He has to return a guy to a bail bondsman by a certain date or the guy goes out of business and loses all the money he put out when the guy other guy skipped bail.

And in one part of the movie he goes ''I'm half thinking of letting him go just to watch Eddie go down the f***in toilet''.

That's kind of where I am right now.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Guess we have the excuse for not doing shit at the deadline and to be fair if Jack is out for a while this team really isn't worth adding to at this point

You honestly believe Fitz is not going to do any trades if Jack is healthy?

 

[Devils Trap]

Nah his ass is saved cause Jack got hurt

 

[Patrik26]

Three guarantees in life. Death, taxes and Jack & Nico will be injured every season.

 

[Normal Devil]

Hopefully Jack was more shaken up than seriously injured. No point in adding to this team if he's out long term. Looked like he used both arms to prop himself up if I saw things correctly.

Sure, let's turn into the 76ers.

I think he IS if we miss the playoffs this year.

The ovation in the season finale will be bad if we do miss.

But if we make the playoffs he's probably extended his leash by a lot.

I mean, I could see him still working here next year if we miss the playoffs, but just not as GM.

There's nothing wrong with Keefe doing that. It's a freak injury on a 2-1.

 

[Alex NJD]

I don't think they deserved to win this one, but no way in hell were the penalties 3 to 1.

Shockingly natural stat trick had expected goals as 2.77 to 2.65 in favor of Vegas.

we’ll see how much they love him when season ticket renewals drop

 

[Eggtimers]

That’s 1 and 1/2 NHL C’s …..
Mercer is maybe not even 1/2 and the other two are not NHL players anymore .

Hischier
Mercer
Haula
Dowling

 

[Devilsfan118]

Hischier
Mercer
Haula
Dowling

Ow. Help!

Hilarious that Fitz has let this putrid depth go unfixed.

So you would have proffered the "Ruff Treatment" and just roll the lines and mail it in?

Keefe might be the only one in management trying to actually win games

 

[NjDevsRR]

The current makeup of the team would have limped into the postseason (barring trades)

If Jack is out, its up to Markstrom and Nico to somehow drag their ass into a wild card spot.

Going to be a very challenging 20 gms


Danometer at a 10

 

[IDEKWTM]

What a disappointment Meier has been.

 

[Whaddagoal]

That was not worth the extended SH chance at end of a regular season game. Jack Eichel did Jack dirty but not intentionally it seemed.

Jack Hughes may be bionic shoulder/arm man forever.

 

[Bleedred]

we’ll see how much they love him when season ticket renewals drop

He'll be GANKED (or shanked) if they miss the playoffs.

And I mean it, like he will probably not wanna even live here anymore if we miss the playoffs and he comes back.

Ok....who cursed this franchise after mid December?

The person on the main board who made a post that we are a wagon / top team in the league / burning villages down lol.

 

[Omar Little]

Tough to tell what it was as he was holding all parts of his arm basically

 

[Devs3cups]

Jack’s last two injuries are freak unlucky plays from trips right in front of the boards. That to me isn’t “injury prone” stuff. Holy f*** does that suck.
