Devils team discussion (news, notes and speculation) - 2023-24 season begins!

[Unknown Caller]

I take that to mean it isn‘t going to be a time frame like 2021-22. so We are probably looking at less than a month.

21-22 was also the AC joint.

Bro lives to shit on twitter sports doctors.

Chao is very solid regardless of his Chargers controversies which have zero to do with the ability to analyze injuries over video.

He is a shitty person and a shitty doctor. Period.

[Bleedred]

The funny part was he was week to week last year and I think he only missed one week.

Did I post that already? It was still typed up in the box on here lol. I either already posted that or meant to earlier and got sidetracked.

Anyway

Is it overreaching and too much to ask him to find out the deal with Nico next!?

 

[Emperoreddy]

I would be legitimately shocked if it isn't a concussion with Nico.

Hopefully he is ready when they return home.

Is he the guy that stabbed Tyrod?

 

[njdevils1982]

a crock of shit....clifton gets 2 games but nico is out for longer.....seriously f*** the sabres

 

[Unknown Caller]

Is he the guy that stabbed Tyrod?

No.

 

[Devs3cups]

Well, that’s a relief. Will miss some time, but nothing dramatic.

Hopefully, this is an opportunity for other guys to take on more responsibility. Toffoli, Meier and Bratt are playing good. Looking at Palat and Mercer to take the on some more here.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Is he the guy that stabbed Tyrod?

No but he got in trouble because of the Seau suicide

 

[Emperoreddy]

Bit of hopium but the time off should let him heal whatever injury he has been playing through lately as well

So he should hopefully return in a few weeks looking more like first couple games Jack

 

[Camille the Eel]

Friedman says Jack will miss some time, but worst case is avoided.

Is Friedman a credible source and someone in a position to know ?

Any way we cut it, this is going to be a challenge for this team. If the club is as down as I am as a fan about it, it can affect confidence big time to start with. Who are we going to be without Hughes? He is such a major factor in our play and style of play. Well I guess we will see starting tomorrow night.

This is such a bummer. He was off to such an amazing start.

Yes he is. He announced the Nico return from injury before anyone else a fee weeks ago.

Also, it sucks, but we have a lot of guys who can contribute, especially with Nico coming back eventually. Many, many teams would be in a worst spot than us after losing their top guy.

 

[JrFischer54]

That's a you issue not a jack issue. Most people aren't doing this.

Yeah I’ll be sure to take notes next time he gets nudged and read the reactions on here lol ok lollololol

Yes. He is Sportsnet’s insider and as others stated he was the one who reported Nico wouldn’t miss a game after he missed the third vs the Islanders.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

His head didn't fall off folks.

 

[Killing Joke]

Even though it’s not worst case they’re still f***ed

 

[glenwo2]

I know, right?

There should be a rule that says the player who causes injury to another will not be allowed on the ice in any game until the player returns from injury.

2 games is horsesh-t.

Meanwhile, someone got 41 games for gambling.

This is a sad sack League.

 

[Emperoreddy]

The reactions on here are almost always massively hyperbolic.

at least its not a long frozen foot death right?

(BBC refused to play the song due to the cover)

 

[Emperoreddy]

You cant prove that

 

[Billdo]

His head didn't fall off folks.

Have you seen him with it still attached? I haven't...

 

[Clam Jensen]

Even though it’s not worst case they’re still f***ed

No they’re not. Relax.

 

[Emperoreddy]

No they’re not. Relax.

No obviously being short handed for a month means the season is over.

No team could possibly weather such a thing
