Devils team discussion (news, notes and speculation) - offseason part III

[Bleedred]

The answer is in the replies above. He scored the trick the next year at Pitt’s HFC night. Lost my mom to the big casino so Provorov, Reimer and any other dumb f*** can go straight to hell with EDM and CHI.

But I do love hockey

For a minute I was wondering the correlation between Provorov and Reimer (they can go to hell all the same though, along with the Staal's lol) and HFC, but I'm assuming you're probably talking about the league ditching the themed jerseys, over those guys not wanting to wear another themed jersey?

Either way, I agree with you. And sorry about your mom.

This happened while my stepmom was fighting breast cancer. Was honestly super inspiring. Also it was that particular game where he scored a hat-trick right?

my mom beat breast cancer.....it's six years later and she's doing fine at 71

hope yours is fine as well

unfortunately my dad lost his battle (pancreas ...64)...total bullshit....only had two years to enjoy retirement

Glad to hear about your mom. My wife had it about six years ago and she got another year of clear health at her annual. It was caught early thankfully.

Started getting "security error" messages every few pages, got logged out, and then get them every time I tried to log in for a week. Super annoying.

Are the last ~20 pages of the thread worth reading or is it peak offseason brain rot?

I was guilty of starting a ''Bring back Kovalchuk'' conversation, just out of a mockery of the constant ''Is this the year Kovy returns?'' posts every offseason between 2014 and 2018.

It then caused name droppings of Ryder, Clowe and Brunner.

Prime Clowe would be perfect for this team

He was a good player. Just had too many concussions and got old quick/retired young.

I know someone who volunteers for this program, and he said Jack and Luke are incredible. He said they will just randomly show up and skate/hangout with the kids the whole practice. A lot of times when other players come, they will show up, but more out of obligation, hangout for a little and then leave. It sounds like it’s not even a planned thing everytime Jack and Luke come, they just do it on their own accord. He said the kids obviously love it, and will say things like “did you see the goal my friend Jack scored last night?”

are we entirely sure Ellen didn't accidentally sign them up as attendees

Unfortuneately we never saw it here in NJ. I'd have to take Shark fans word for it.

Maroon in his stint with the Devils was surprisingly good, especially as a passer.

Meier paced at the same 37 goals 75 points with good underlyings he always has (right in line with brady tkachuk btw) he always has once he got back on PP1 (underrated impact on production) in the new year once he got fully healthy.

If he isn't on PP1, you'll be disappointed with his raw numbers. If he is on PP1, you'll be very happy

That’s what it’s all about. Cater to the kids and the rest will take care of itself. When my oldest two were 9 and 5 we went to get autographs from them Saints linebacker Scott Fujita. Thr line was me and my kids and a few other parents with kids and a bunch of guys with piles of mini helmets and footballs and pictures they were going to try to sell on eBay or at a convention or whatever. Fujita grabbed the kids first and spent a decent amount of time with all of them. My kids had just come from soccer practice and were still in uniform and he chatted with them about his time as a soccer player and was genuinely kind. Posed for a couple of great photos with them and did the same for the other kids there. I’m sure he made a number of lifetime fans that day. Jack and Luke are doing the same. Really impressive. Where’s Doerrie when this happens?

Holed up in a cave tweeting about the Hughes’ white privilege and her “disability”.

 

[TBF1972]

It's been so long! We need a Hughes/Hughes/Bratt/Nemec/1st/3rd to Montreal for Anderson deal to be cooked up by the Montreal media again.

I miss it!

habs wouldn't do that. they have enough smurfs.

I was going to say, writing articles for ESPN but that might be the same as holed up in a cave.

what i meant is i want him healthy and to see him throw his size around...the points will come

That's really not fair to caves.

Here's a tweet with Nico doing backflips to hold you over. (Dunno it's authenticity but I guess I can believe it). Supposedly from a few years ago, or who knows.

 

[TBF1972]

It's amusing that certain Habs posters insist that Matheson is worth a huge return because he posted 60 points after playing 25 minutes a night and getting PP1 time (28 PP points). But those fans never quite consider whether Matheson would get the same ice time elsewhere. Ie, there's one Habs poster who I should block but it's almost amusing reading his "logic" who suggested Nashville ought to pay a big price for Matheson while not acknowledging they already had that Roman Josi guy. It was almost like Tyson Barrie didn't get to pad his numbers in Nashville due to a reduction in PP time.

i stopped to argue with the dellusional habs fans. i will just enjoy the moments realtiy hits them.

Random signing Tuesdays?

@Ripshot 43 gets added in the prospect poll

 

[TBF1972]

First name says Russian.
Last name says African.
City of Birth says Canadian.

That's a hell of a mix.

HDB has his listed weight at 205.

should be worth more than arber xhekaj
