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

[Xirik]

One Florida fan still mad about the Devils on the Mainboard GDT.

 

[Whaddagoal]

That was the most deliberate non call I've seen on awhile. Guy interferes and slew foots in one play and not a call

 

[Moist ReadOnly]

LoL

So we ended at 4-1-0 against the Panthers (2x), TB, Carolina and Washington.

4-1-0 against the gauntlet. We were all dreading this stretch.

I'm extremely impressed.

And the one loss was to Tampa who was on their 3rd game in 10 days while we were on our 6th in 10. Super impressive run

When I first saw Ellen next to Jack in that picture I thought she was their sister or something. She's pretty young looking.

She's got a little bit of age to her (hardly) when you get a really good look at her, but I found it hard to believe she was 55.

That team partnership with Genucel is paying off.

Markstrom
9-5-1 with a 2.54 GAA and a .907 SV%

Allen
5-2-1 with a 2.26 GAA and a .921 SV%

Goalies have been good for us especially Allen. Numbers for both really took a hit in those disastrous defensive performances against Washington and Tampa earlier this season. Since then we’ve been getting consistently good goaltending.

I think the lesson for Keefe is don't overplay Markstrom. Maybe its a 55/45 split instead of 66/34

 

[mdj12784]

Very impressed with Keefe thus far. Always weary of Toronto personnel, but he seems like a good one. Like his energy in the locker room post game.

 

[Devs3cups]

9-3 in our last 12 games.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Lmao, great edit by this guy.

 

[theoptimist]

I don't think this team needs a top 6 forward. That's just a luxury (which they can't afford most likely). They do need reinforcements in the bottom 6 though

If we can convince Sergey Kalinin to come back, I think he'd be a good option there. We are missing a Russian. You need a russian skater to win the stanley cup.

That’s what Gritsyuk will be for.

I’ve seen enough. Re-sign Kovy to a 4x3.5 and trade Nemec for a young 2nd -3rd line C with room to perhaps grow into a little more.

 

[devilsblood]

Speaking of Nemec, I'm seeing he is not currently with Utica?

Not trading Nemec for a 3rd line center. You trade a Pavel Zacha for a 3C.

Question:

I have a sudden need to scale back on things I pay monthly for (that need being a little freeloader who's formula costs like $250 a month)

Is it possible to use a VPN on a Macbook or iPad and watch Devils games on ESPN Plus? Would f'ing LOVE to not pay $30 a month for Gotham anymore.

He did say a young 2nd-3rd line center with room to grow.

Not an older guy like Haula.

I'm not advocating such a move, looking to move Dougie makes more sense imo, but the rise of Kova has made these moves things that need to be considered.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Speaking of Nemec, I'm seeing he is not currently with Utica?

Where did you see that? He played last night in Rochester and picked up his 1st point with an assist on Halonen's 2nd PPG of the game.
