GDT: Devils @ Hurricanes - 7:00 PM - MSG

[TheUnseenHand]

Incredibly frustrating game. They’re not playing bad by any means. Sticks have gone cold and Vanecek just isn’t making the saves he was when we were rolling.

So everything is fine except we can't score and the goalie can't make a save? lol

 

[TrufleShufle]

i said if this streak continues for a few more weeks, we probably won’t make the playoffs. i’m such a drama queen.

since day one, dude lol. i wasn’t even being negative, just saying we need to break out of this shit immediately before we piss away the season. we lost our cushion, we are about to lose the division lead, should we go skipping towards the slaughterhouse? can we not make a realistic observation without being called a drama queen?

You know you don't have to actually say something to be argued against for it, he's like Jim in that regard, we all know the play, it's on us not to fall into it. Fool me once and what not.

Honestly, basically yeah lol.

Thank god Dano isn’t the Canes color commentator. Would quit in the first month with these names.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

You know how some players have "eyes on their back" cause their vision is so good. Well Wood has full on tunnel vision like a locomotive.

That's being too kind. He's straight up blind.

Is Blackwood wearing sweatpants? What the hell is that, no socks.

[Eggtimer]

Regarding Bratt - he has shown the ability to be a top tier player but is wayyyyyy too inconsistent.
Cant pay a guy 8+ mil per when they disappear for stretches.

Haha that kinda feels like a problem

My concern is that's not an easy one to fix. It would almost be better if the puck was going in but we were being outplayed. I feel like that's easier to fix.

 

[My3Sons]

Huge save by Blackwood!! Remember that if NJ comes back to win

 

[Call Me Al]

it’s back to feeling like a chore to watch this team. this sucks.

tired of the “we’re playing well! we’re outshooting and out chancing them!” playing “well” and losing is still losing.

we beat a bunch of bad teams during an easy part of our schedule and the good teams are beating us now and it looks like the losing is in their heads. i have a hard time seeing them beat boston

Pretty much. The minute people accept this team isn’t as good as their hot start and not as bad as their current losing streak, the happier everyone will be. Team will be playing meaningful hockey all year. It’s a nice change.

I,be seen goalies wear nothing under their pads, and think to myself how unsafe that is to have their bare legs exposed when they could get stepped on.

 

[AfroThunder396]

Their defensive scheme is to literally just poke check in the neutral zone and we actually don't have an answer for it

 

[Blender]

We're back to the constant turnovers at the blue lines that have been killing us for years.

Maybe he's trying to get hurt again

 

[NjDevsRR]

Nice

We cannot buy one

Checking out for the night. Come on Devs, come back for us.

 

[DevilDog]

Someone score a Goal, loosen up the grip on those sticks. I’ll take a moral victory at this point.

 

[Saugus]

During the win streak those sneaky Hischier wristers from the circles were going in. No such luck now.

I’m not sure what’s worse — the lack of an answer, or the lack of adjustment.
