GDT: ECQF GM1 - New Jersey Devils host the New York Rangers - 7PM EST on MSG2 and MSGSN

[BostonDevil]

I'm not saying to fire him, but definitely not prepared and power play killed all momentum.

Ummm, you know who would be getting the job if they fired Lindy, right?

 

[Forge]

Laf is totally going to put on in, isn't he?

 

[DerekDevils30]

Rangers blocking shots like crazy.

Keep the damage to 2-0 for now and hopefully they find their confidence and game.

 

[MadDevil]

I expected nerves but yeesh. Hopefully they get this out of their system and back to playing their game.

 

[mdj12784]

For a fast team, they look pretty unable to play at the playoff pace right now.

Whole different animal. Records won’t do Jack for us now

 

[Patrik26]

Miles Wood is supposed to be a veteran

He is. Even some veterans suck.

 

[Saugus]

Give the Rangers credit for blocking everything, but we need to adjust to that and try something else. 1 shot this far into the game is embarrassing.

 

[Shakir ONeal]

Do I switch to TBS to reverse the vibes?

 

[MasterofGrond]

Seriously I can forgive starting slow I can forgive jitters, but I’m gonna seethe forever at playing wood and then that f***ING penalty

 

[Bleedred]

This is as bad of a period as we've played all season, as far as scoring chance generation goes.

Imagine if Igor might have actually had to do something?

 

[bossram]

I'm not saying to fire him, but definitely not prepared and power play killed all momentum.

1. Pathetic start. Can't match the intensity or pace.

2. Pathetic PP, as usual.

3. Zero pre-scout on the Rangers PP. Routine set-play they score on.

All on coaching. 100% coaching failure.

 

[Cheddabombs]

I didn't want to break this out tonight, but time to make a good luck coffee

 

[Wolf Stansson 30]

We just need to not give up anymore this period and start fresh in the 2nd. Shake the nerves out

 

[NJDevs26]

They really want to get booed off the ice home opener style don’t they? Maybe that would wake them up

 

[HoliksGhost]

For a fast team, they look pretty unable to play at the playoff pace right now.

We are faster long distance but right now they are closing to the pucker quicker… got to want it more.. we ain’t doing that

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

Rangers blocking shots like crazy.

They did their hw

 

[Japam]

They look so nervous. Do a round of shots during intermission and come out firing next period.

 

[RandoDoomer]

On the plus side, all my anxiety is gone. They're not even doing enough to get anxious about. Hopefully that changes.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Let's get one back and make this a game.

 

[NHL Fanatik]

Theyre looking like Kriss Kross , too jumpy right now

Theyll settle in eventually - hopefully soon

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

soooo fellas they’re going to keep blocking those point shots

I'm waiting for an adjustment in their strat.

 

[Capt Nico Poo]

Its a young game

 

[Bleedred]

Seriously I can forgive starting slow I can forgive jitters, but I’m gonna seethe forever at playing wood and then that f***ING penalty

That entire shift even before that was pathetic.

4th line gets pinned in, Wood is stuck in the mud. Shot hits the post. Play finally gets out of our end and Wood takes an O-zone penalty.

 

[guitarguyvic]

Two way street bud

I have no idea what this means. Nobody needs supposed fans to come in here and make comments that seem to revel in the devils doing poorly.

They're blocking everything and making it difficult to move up the ice and gain the zone
