Sooo maybe we were wrong about Dougie? No idea anymore
He made some pretty brutal defensive plays and reads, but he does drive offense.

Team is 11th in the league for ENG, with 8.
Devils are 4th worst in the league in GF/60 with the opposition having an empty net. 43 minutes, only 8 goals.
I didn’t realize we were that bad. It felt like we were one of the worst teams in the league with them in recent years, so maybe having that many this early in the year feels like a lot.That's because they've faced empty nets so much. Their GF/60 against empty nets ranks 29th.

No way they had fewer expected goals tonight than the Rangers had in the last game before Christmas.It's kind of insane that Seattle only had 2 expected goals? Lol
Maybe natural stat trick hadn't updated with the third period, but I thought it said 2.11 xgf all situations lolNo way they had fewer expected goals tonight than the Rangers had in the last game before Christmas.
also mentioned the last game as a reason to play hard as f*** in this game.I love Markstrom. He credited his last save to good hand eye from playing hockey with Clark back home.
I think expected goals are particularly bad on shots from really in tight on the goalie.It's kind of insane that Seattle only had 2 expected goals? Lol
you’re allowed to actually watch the games fyi30-13 in shot attempts in favour of NJD with him on the ice but somehow still complaints
Moneypuck also had it as 1.03 after 2 periods.Maybe natural stat trick hadn't updated with the third period, but I thought it said 2.11 xgf all situations lol
She sick.no Rachel tonight?
Nah, in small samples, sure, but those cards actually get the game right a lot of the time. He does indeed drive a lot of offense, he had a handful of rushes tonight that resulted in chances (and the Palat goal). More importantly, the Devils do a great job of limiting mistakes this season. Years past all mistakes would be a chance or a shot but now they are able to recover when they do make a mistake and that no longer shows on these cards because it doesn’t end up being a shot or chance against all the time.Proof those cards are shit. A tiny bit of offense is weighted so heavily over good defense.
Also wondering if there is a bug going around the group. They have been noticeably a step behind since the Christmas breakShe sick.
(Actually I’m giving her hair treatment right now, shhh)
Sal and Dano learning on the fly lmao
