Post-Game Talk: GM 09 | Devils def. Canucks | 6-0 | Look at this light.

This team needs a powerplay coach bad, that was horrendous yesterday lol. A team like the Oilers will score 40% of the time, if they don’t it’s so good it gives them momentum. Ours kills our momentum it’s so bad, can’t win a Championship without a dangerous powerplay.

Everyone wants to defer and pass it around the horn and look for the pretty "tic tac toe" play but they simply need to get more pucks directed at the net and muck away in front...battle for position and force defenders to screen their own goalie. They've lost the plot if they think they're going to finesse every PP for goals.

Older brother always wins.

Luke will switch to 34.

And I am getting more and more convinced every day that this will eventually happen, which will prove Devils fans correct and was likely sealed the day they drafted Luke.

Trying to enjoy Quinn for as long as we have him, but if this team takes a dive in the next few years I don't see him sticking around for the rest of his career. The Devils would be cup contenders by adding him to this lineup.

Canucks seem to have gotten better in the neutral zone but significantly worse in the offensive zone and defensive zone. Skating so fast leaving pucks behind, lots of north-south skating without generating much, failing to slow it down in the offensive zone and make smart east-west plays, lots of gliding instead of controlled possession, not able to maneuver through traffic, not taking it to the front of the net, unable to get to the slot, not mucking it up and playing chippy, leaving lots of space defensively, too much gliding not enough accelerating & braking, no creativity.

Hopefully now everyone else realizes silovs isn't nhl ready yet, guy should be in Abbotsford asap.

Whatever it takes to motivate an ep trade at this point is my preference, and I'm more convinced than ever hoglander is going with him.

Watching the Hischier goal.

You know where he is going to shoot before even he decides
The camera is behind him and he is still stuck handling, but yet you see the massive are he is going to shoot guaranteed

Gent I know who has corporate club seats went. Said it was the worst game he has been to in about 6 years. He goes to about 15-20 games/year.

A caller to the post-game, post-mortem show made a valid and interesting point.

For the price of the contract they gave to Debrusk, they could have brought Zadorov back. Ouch!

It's not too late...

lol, after 10 games, people were saying trade Demko.

This has "Spencer Martin" written all over it.

Well not quite, to reach Spencer Martin levels of bad he would have to lose at least the next SEVEN games in a row. If I'm Silovs I welcome a change in scenery if the alternative means that I get utterly hung out to dry in every game I play with the big team. Only, what, 3 players weren't minus players last night. Myers, Juulsen even the stars were completely terrible. He has had no support in any of the games he has started. To be sure he has also not made one big save yet this season. Thank the hockey gods for Lanky; it's a different team when he's in the net it seems. Why? Could it be Silovs' fancy shirts (one hater was railing on about them earlier)? My guess is the jerseys; that pukey yellow colour makes me ill, reminds me of bad hockey...
