Win streaks are hard.
Anyone watching the game on TV or live in arena could see devils were in control most of whole game. (In relation to Killing Jokes commentary). I dont give a hoot we were out shot. We controlled the flow of the game for the most part
There was barely a crack in their game today. Got their chances and cashed in, generate some really good other ones that did get saved. Maybe a brief moment in the early 2nd, and a brief moment at the last part of the 1st that fell a little bit. They recovered their game right after.
No major giveaways, no major mistakes on special teams, got SH rushes twice (one for a SHG). Got the ENG goal. Collapsed well on the PK. Markstrom made big saves in the moment.
The big guns got their points and goals. Super happy with this game.

You did the math on this the other day and I know I'm not the best at math but looking at us possibly clinching 3rd on Tuesday at home and it looks like we need the Rangers and Columbus to at least drop some points before then. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
Devils - 89 points win on Tuesday gets us to 91 points, could clinch with 1 point at 90 points depending on outcomes with the Rangers and Columbus
Rangers - 79 points, max of 12 points, max total is 91. Play Monday vs Tampa.
Columbus - 77 points, max of 16 points, max total is 93. Play Toronto tonight and Ottawa tomorrow. We have the regulation win tie breaker with them though so as long as they drop 2 points in any fashion this weekend we could clinch over them win a regulation win.
Islanders would need to win out to max out at 90 points and we have the tie breaker in regulation wins over them too so if they lose tomorrow in any fashion or we even get a point on Tuesday they can't pass us officially.

Have to absolutely have to and if there’s a game to take it would be game 1.
I'd rather game 2. Mental carryover to game 3 on both sides.
Add to your analysis that Carolina isn’t going to push us around and beat us up in this series. Going back to our loss against them, that was to my eyes their biggest advantage. That is neutralized. We may even have an advantage if things get physical.
Our team is much better constructed for playoff hockey this year than in prior seasons. Plus we are going into the playoffs hot.
Don’t underestimate that. We were basically slumping after Xmas. Hanging on. In the last 10 games or so it feels like the first time since then that we’ve been heating up. I love going into the playoffs streaking with a hot goalie too. That’s what you want.
look at the f***ing trash theyre selling at value village this afternoon
bonus crap...

The only hair of optimism I have about a Carolina series is this is going to be the first time we play these ****s when they’re the clear favorite with the pressure on them
And if THIS version of Timo shows up for the playoffs well we just found a star to replace Jack

That's how you handle yo business. That just about clinches a spot I think.
If i was in the lineup it would t even be a question. Aho Svench Jarvis all in the hospital by the end of the first game warmups .

not gonna lie.
I laughed at first at the EN goal (4th goal of the game for the Devils) because of all the dipsy-do shoot-out moves that Bratt did only to miss and being thankful, Nico was there to clean it up.
However, I saw the "behind-the-goal-net camera view" (don't know how else to describe that part of the replay) and saw that Bratt's shot was actually deflected by a good stick from Trocheck (who stretched out for the deflection) that had the puck wind up on the inside of the right post but just before the goal-line.
So instead of having another goal, Bratt gets to add yet another assist to the Devils assist record.
This was a great day for a Devils hockey game and a Rags asskicking.
Nico was AWESOME.
Bratt was as always doing Bratt things.
Timo F'n Meier is starting to heat up which is HUGE for us.
Luke Hughes has begun to raise his game to another level with his brother out.
And our Team defense looked pretty solid for the most part.

People are already saying this needs to be their year because the path is so easy for them so pressure will be on.
We also have the clear goalie advantage.
I think we need Glass and Dougie back to pull this off though.

Okay that's it.
I'm actually done with you.
It's always something negative with you.
bye.
That was a fun game to watch. Don’t know how you can really have any complaints unless you’re desperately seeking anything to be miserable about.
I don’t have any expectations heading into this postseason, but I’m going to do my best to just eNJoy the ride. The team is playing nicely down the stretch, big names are stepping up their games and there’s really no pressure as they’ll be a decent underdog against the Canes.
Thought Casey had a solid game - would like to see him play more down the stretch. Pesce with a team leading 25:08 today. Good to see Marky dialed in.

"Lets Go Baby!"
Said the same thing....difference is, you can't replace Jack Hughes. THIS is the Timo we need consistently...

I saw the replay and apparently it was a nice stick-check by Trochek that deflected Bratt's shot so it wasn't like Bratt blew it.
