Critical!!

 

[GoJackets1]

Need to watch out for their first line, looks pretty good on paper and I think Palmieri plays pretty well against us.

Hoping to see some tears from our favorite Devils poster tonight.

 

[S1N4TR4]

Man, that Devils D looks brutal on paper. Dug up some quick stats for you guys:

Here's notable Devils players that have played well against us in their careers..

Kyle Palmieri... 8 points in 13 games.
Taylor Hall (Jackets Killer).... 5 goals, 9 assists. 14 points in 12 games. +7
Mike Cammalleri... 22 points in 28 games.
Cory Schneider.... 9-6-2, 2.25 GAA, .920 save percentage in 17 games.

On the contrast.. Jackets players that have played the Devils well in their careers:

Dubi... 32 points in 43 games. +16
Cam... 9 points in 13 games. +7

Interesting to note that Bob has struggled statistically against NJD.. 11 games, 2.86 GAA.. .903 save percentage in his career.

I wonder if Schneider gets the night off since he played last night....that would be nice

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

I am always interested in Bleedred's insights

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

Need to win this type of game if the Jackets want to stay in the top 3 of the division. No excuses tonight.

I gather there's some inferior complex going on with them being in shadows of NY? Like, being the obscure middle son who's bullied by his older brother, so middle son tries to boost his ego by beating up on younger brother, except younger brother beats him up too.

Exactly. You nailed it.

While most Devils fans don't stress it, bleedred can't handle losing to the Jackets.

It's my favorite time of the year!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Play like we did last night

 

[CBJfan44]

Hope the boys can put it on the Devils early and take them right out of the game. Fast start is the key for me in this one.

 

[Bobcat110]

Josh Anderson out due to illness per Torts.

No idea if this twitter account is reliable, but:




EDIT: TORTS CONFIRMS NUTS IN

 

[Miggus]

Josh Anderson out due to illness per Torts.

Hännikäinen in for Josh.

EDIT: And Torts just confirmed that Prout is out, Nuti in.

 

[Jacket Junkie]

Please come back David Savard. Our D sorely needs you.

 

[Fro]

there are no scouts in the building tonight? weird

 

[LetsGOJackets!!]

Only 2 Power Plays in last 240 minutes.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Let's get two! Go Jackets!

Can you imagine that happening to the TML? **** no...

 

[Doggy]

Did anyone see the ESPN story suggesting CBJ might be interested in Halak to backup Bobs?

 

[Bobcat110]

Can you imagine that happening to the TML? **** no...

Only Wild have fewer PPs this year. They've had 139, CBJ have had 142.

 

[Doggy]

Z without his stick...crap!

 

[CBJfan44]

Ugh.

 

[MFRONE]

Another terrible start
