I just noticed that Mercer's goal against Carolina in the last game was his 150th career point.

150 points ties Mercer with Dave Andreychuk for #49 in All Time Devil point leaders.


And Also Nico just passed Jamie Langenbrunner at #15 in All Time Devil points. Nico is currently #14 and only 7 points away from Petr Sykora at #13.

Jesper Bratt is only 5 points from tying Zach Parise for #10 All Time Devil points leaders

Also I always complain about commercials...so I'll tell you about one I like.

I think the NHL "tipping" commercial is a pretty novel one.


In case you haven't seen it l:


Another semi interesting stat...not one active Devil is in the top 50 PIM leaders. Bastian is the highest on the list at #80 and 149 PIM's. He's just below Zidlicky's 150 :laugh:

Brian Gionta is #50 with 227 PIM's

Nico is top 10 All Time goal scoring in Devil history with 154 career goals for #9 All Time . He just moved past Randy McKay 151 and Brian Gionta 152 career Devil goals

Positive Jim on the Devils Core makes for a Happy HFBoard!

It's all a run-up for a big weekend post-game forum battle?
Something like that.

3 wins in a row. Devils tied for first in the league. Playing a division rival that we just beat. Dustin Tokarski in the other net. Jim being positive all of the sudden.

Only way this game can go is us getting smoked.

I mean Palat is absolutely getting spoonfed. But that’s always what he did in Tampa before we acquired him. Playing his role well enough now although he’s still not at all worth 6M.

Facts aren't positive or negative? :dunno:

That's why I like the All Time list so much. They are simple. Sure you can muddy the waters with discussions of era, league wide scoring or whatever...but I see it more of a simple way to acknowledge the organizational standouts throughout time.

Maybe the acknowledgement of these players climbing the list is positive? Maybe, I don't know? But it was more of a rabbit hole from Mercer's 150th career point as a Devil vs Carolina last game

Palat has 9 pts in his last 12 games

his daughter came home from the NICU on 11/24. That was 15 games ago.

Getting consistent top line time with Jack and Bratt definitely helped, but Palat has not looked out of place in that spot.

Ultimately, however it happens, an effective Palat is an unambiguous positive for us. I say we ride this donkey until it doesn’t go anymore.

I guess I'm seeing your facts as positive!
