No such thing as a fine game being shutout
This is semantics but no respectable coach would agree, I dont think
Burn the tape and rest

Tampa has had a lot of time to practice.
Bro wtf. This schedule has been a joke for us for the first two months.

Not likely in a playoff series. In any single game, absolutely.

How many actual 'Cup contenders' are there in the NHL and how are the Devils so far away from any of them? A lot of teams are good, not great. Hopefully we stay in the good pile and don't regress to bubble mediocrity.

They played a great game against the Wings and a pretty good game against the Isles. Played a meh, tight defensive game against the Flames and a pretty good game against the Sharks from all accounts (didn't watch that one).
The last time this team has played a very bad complete game was the last game against TB. Some games haven't been perfect but I've liked their play overall since that game.

This was a low energy game from after the 10 minute mark. They got the result from the effort they put in.
Not much else to dissect. They started strong. Gave up the first goal late in 1st, had some looks nothing happened. Kinda bad 2nd goal screen.
Special teams failed on both units.
Get rest, come back home and be better again.
Winning 2 of 3 pretty good in my eyes.

Vitek was good for 3 or 4 goals against every night. The difference is Vitek would let in goals a Midget League goalie would stop.

Uh. I don't care. His stick work and positioning is terrific.

LOL and where were you exactly when they swept the Panthers? 2-1 is fine on this trip and I was booing them out the building less than a week ago.

Based on what? How many matchups do we not have the best player in? Vegas doesn’t agree with you either. Legitimate contender.

I didn’t think the Devils were bad tonight but this was the worst game in awhile.
It sure looked like the team was sucking on fumes a bit and they played so well last game that I think you just turn the page, let this one go, and focus on next game.

What are talking about?
We were going to win 0-0?
The only maybe bad goal was 3rd one which happened half way through the 3rd period.
You don’t have spend the rest of your life seeing everything through the lens of your version of “Goalie Debate”.
We have two real goalies now. They’re old as f***, so we still have to figure out what to do at the position long term, but we’re set this season.

There wont be any regression
However its a new coach on a team who's best players are nowhere near the middle of their careers. Cup winning is a ways away but theyre on the right path
Once Fitzgerald finds a permanent scoring winger for Jack with our abundance of assets and future cap space, and the young defenseman take off, we will be a force
I don't need him putting up pts but he's been outscored 6-3 this year at 5v5.

They lost those games. the moral victory shit is out the window this year. this isn’t a rebuilding team anymore.
Markstrom's a massive reason we won Tuesday and tonight he kept us in the game and they gave him no support.

They have the defensive structure down pat for the most part. Hope to see them improve their 5v5 play to where’s it’s more consistently good. Boys should get some good practices in before Thursday

Obviously really small samples here but in 32 minutes of Luke away from Pesce he has a 74 xG% and Pesce in 36 minutes away from Luke has a 39 xG%

It's fine if we don't agree. They aren't going to win every single game and for a team with a new coach and a crazy schedule to start, playing good hockey regardless of the result is important in my eyes.
If they play solid hockey overall, they'll win more games than they'll lose, and that's what we've seen from them in the last 2-3 weeks. I expect that to keep on getting better as the team gels even more, as the schedule gets a bit more normal, and as they get more practice time.

probably bc when Luke isn't with Pesce it is late game situations where they let him run loose trying to score
