We are also apparently playing in a no-hit league. I lost track of how many free passes we have given to Devils players. Nothing like rocking a few guys to slow down their dancing around.
They always do this. Let them know they need to watch out. Let them think twice.

The Bruins play defense by standing around and waving their sticks. It's not a mystery why faster more skilled teams exploit the way they play.

What else can they do? The D are absolutely exhausted as the forwards spend essentially zero time in Devil's offensive zone. The D can't pace themselves at all they are constantly defending and on their heels. The offensive zone is where the D can grab a breath.

At the end of the day, it's the forward group that is the crux of the problem with this team. I'd argue it's the worst group of forwards in the NHL overall, maybe only better than Chicago (which coincidentally is largely comprised of former employees of Misters Sweeney and Neely).

The best defense in today's NHL is to play as much time in the offensive zone as you can. This management team has ignored that fact. The needed to add more speed/shooting/puck distribution in this past off season and they added none of that. Wasted valuable cap space on shit they didn't need. Luxury items essentially. And this franchise will pay for it for years to come.

Clean house of this front office and pro scouting staff. It's clear their vision is completely flawed.
