The meltdown will be fun when our AHL team loses 6-1 and 7-1 to the Rangers first team next week, this preseason sucks even more than most - especially with needing time for the new system.

No time to give the benefit of the doubt with a brand new head coach implementing a brand new structure? I get the core is the same, but there is a lot of revamping that was done over this offseason.
I understand having expectations, but best not to get bent out of shape by a preseason game you didn't even watch.
They're leaving this Sunday. The final 3 preseason games will be Comets games

I guess Friday’s game will be another full lineup, before leaving.
I hope it's Misyul. I've always really liked him and stylistically if you've got Luke/Casey/Nemec as 3 of your D he's a better fit than Vilen. He's also about to turn 24 though so he could be gone by the time there's a spot. If Siegs turns things back around I think Misyul could end up struggling to find a spot the next 2 years outside of stepping in for injuries. He'd probably have to take that opportunity and really run with it. Then after that I think Silayev comes in and you'd still have Siegs/Dillon both under contract as well making things even harder. The best case for Misyul individually would probably be Siegs not turning it around and Misyul grabbing his spot
I feel like there's been such mixed reporting on that but yeah it should be. At first I remember hearing they'll be here for 4 games until they leave then 3 and it kept flip flopping
My thought is they can finish the game with Philly and then take an Amtrak to Prague. Through the Chunnel and then link up with the Orient Express. Hopefully there is no murder.
What in the world lmao.
People have “no time” to watch a sports team due to a few preseason games where lots of changes are happening?
OK.

You misunderstand. There is time to watch the games, but not enough time to also give them the benefit of the doubt at the same time. Asking for both is a tall order in this economy.

how many masks this guy have? didn't he show one off with red splattered on the white cage part?
The Pine Barrens theme ontop is filthy
Really wish the team steered more into this lore in their marketing and maybe even an alternate jersey

I don't think so. Guys who didn't play last night may be skating, as well as the AHL guys that we don't care about, but guys who played last night aren't skating.

not sure if this is new news.
But Devils press release says a third member will be inducted into the ring of honor.
The obvious candidate would be Lou, but the way he is I can’t see him ever agree to that. Maybe Doc or Chico.
I know Corey Masisak floated Marie Carnevale who has been around the team for decades in a player support role as a pick too. Looking at his article she joined the team in 1984 so the time of celebrating 40 years is there.

Keefe was asked about it last night after the game and he indicated it should be fairly close to the group we'll bring to Prague.
Yeah, I think Lou won't allow it until he's fully retired.
Maybe Jacques Lemaire? I'd love to see it.

I know it's obviously super early but I am partial to working with pairs on lines. Hischier and Meier worked well last year if I recall when Meier was closer to healthy towards the end of the year. Jack and Bratt obviously work. I'd much rather go Nico-Meier and Jack-Bratt than try and force something that hasn't been super effective in Meier-Jack-Bratt. Timo isn't the type of player that will work well with them.

Why not, a coach to go along with one owner (McMullen) and one player (Brylin) for the moment. Unless he's still on Lou's payroll lol - probably not though he's almost certainly on Lou's secretary's speed dial
