So he's part of the crowd here that thinks it was moreso the Defense than the Goaltenders that was the issue.
Goddamn it, Keefe.
I thought you were smarter than this.
My opinion this past season was a combination of goal goaltending and defense combined. This happened because of bad input to Fitz from Ruff and Fitz not being able to pull the trigger on the deal he wanted. I think Ruff promised and didn't deliver. As for before this past season, we had bad goal tending since the last season of Brodeur. Schneider gave us one maybe two good years during this time frame. I hope the fix is here, now. KEEFE will deliver a better combination of defense and goal tending. FITZ improved the defense and we are getting back our injured defensive star.
The talent some people have is really amazing. I wish I can even do a paint by numbers properly
This is gonna be beautiful
Just ran into Ryan Whitney at a fish market in Nantucket and asked him his thoughts on the devils this year. He’s very high on them. Lanky dude in real life.
that is great work on that mask. Great precision and detail. I wish I had that sort of ability as well. Of course, I have literary talent as shown below by my upcoming chidlrens' book "The ABCs of the Devils"The talent some people have is really amazing. I wish I can even do a paint by numbers properly

It’s tough but I thought Ruff lost the room a few years ago. The Nico exit videos were rough.
Brunette gave this team a major shot in the arm.
Going beyond the defense or goaltending debate, the Devils were trash most nights. There wasn’t many complete efforts last season. I think Ruff’s roster choices and goalie usage were poor. His game management was terrible. Lindy’s PP went from #1 to not scoring for weeks and he made zero adjustments. He never used a timeout when games got out of hand.
Yea he was super nice! He said “yea Pasha is a pain in my ass about the Devils stuff but I still love him”.That's pretty cool. I watch the Chiclets sandbaggers all the time, and always enjoy when someone (either him or an opponent) takes the piss out of him for his body type. He always jokes about his legs and being built like a bag of milk, but my favorite might have been when someone told him "I've never seen anyone built like a sick greyhound before".
They're not my go to for NHL content given they can be clowns, but as far as entertainment goes, I don't mind Spittin' Chiclets. They're not bad guys (Whit and Biz). RA is another story though.
So niche but for everyone who gets the reference this is hysterical.
I don't know about Rogalski. You are correct goaltending has been bad, it started with Brodeur his next to his last year with Schneider and then his last year that was all on Brodeur. Schneider had a couple of good years as backup for Marty. Then on his own Schneider one, I forget, maybe two years, then goal tending went downhill for the Devils, it has been a lot of years of bad goal tending for the Devils. If you put weak defense in front of weak goal tending then you have a lot of goals against and you lose a lot of games.The correct/actual answer is: "Marty said he's staying and he's higher in the chain than me"
The thing is, the terrible defense (for the most part) was just last season. The terrible goaltending has been going on for years. Every goalie has regressed and at best, not improved, under Rogalski.

Thanks for sharing that. I never watched that show but I like the team having some fun with the social media.GTL is a reference to Gym, Tan, Laundry from Jersey Shore.
In the show, the girls wrote a letter to another girl that her boyfriend was cheating on her at the club. So the Devils took that and rewrote it talking about the Avs mascot.
Rogalski should be gone .. too many seasons of failure. It's never one guys fault, but he seems to be given the benefit of the doubt too often. It's been a failure .. should have canned him and brought someone else in.I don't know about Rogalski.
