Also, not for nothing, but Foote being out all year does hurt a little, I think. I was kind of expecting him to have a solid bottom line role this year.

I need to look at the numbers more in depth, but he to me has actually looked better or at least more dangerous offensively since coming back from the 2nd injury. He looked miserable between the 1st injury and 2nd injury. He basically has the big games against the Rangers and Canucks after coming back and then went quiet until the injury vs Chicago.
Of course that could be an eye test failure as some good chances (like today’s breakaway) that he had and flubbed.

I doubt Jack would willingly let himself get shut down for the season early when there's still an even minuscule chance at the playoffs but once the Devs are officially eliminated then he should just get shut down and go through whatever process he needs to be 100% asap for offseason training. He's not even taking faceoffs when the first guy gets kicked out of the dot so it must be decently bad still.

The 2nd goal was just a lucky-ass-sh*t goal by the Canes.
If that shot was taken 20 more times, it would've missed 20 more times.

I’d like him to have stopped that but he only gave up 2 before the end. He certainly gave us a chance to win today and we didn’t generate a hell of a lot. We essentially scored once before garbage time with seconds left. That isn’t going to win you games.

I wish
I was so bloated that I looked like a dead person.
I downed multiple cans of soda and a milkshake after eating a ton and then running to the store after the game while bloated. It was the first real nasty humid day we've had this year and I'm literally the only person in Florida driving around in a car with no working AC.
I will fix anything myself on my vehicles and I will fix the HVAC system in my home when I need to, but for some reason I refuse to fix the AC in my vehicles.
I see way older and shittier cars and trucks riding around with AC. I think the only other guy I see driving around without AC is a guy in a 73 Ford pickup.
My hat is starting to smell. It's that time of year again.

I'm contemplating opening up a couple of fun size Snickers, but I think I need to know when to stop. I felt like death only about 2-3 hours ago and it lasted for at least 2 hours.
And I don't throw up. Throwing up is the worst feeling in the world. I have thrown up maybe 10 times since I was 12 years old. Maybe a few more than that, because I was sick one of those times and threw up multiple times in a day.
I will not make myself throw up.

Absolutely poured all game at the Red Bulls home opener tonight but they won 2-1 and was way more fun than watching this sh!t show.
Amazing what happens when the goalie didn’t give up two stinkers

At least Daws comes out and faces the media after losses and a poor game. Pretty sure Schmid has a few times this year too.
That idiot coward that just got sent to San Jose didn’t even come out and say boo after games.
He let everybody else answer about his poor play for him, from the skaters to Ruff.
That’s what really soured me on him this year, other than his actual play.

He's definitely more dangerous offensively but his shot just isn't where it needs to be; he is blowing chances all the time. Whether that's injury or just frustration, it's hard to know, but he's got 6 goals on 83 shots since coming back. That's over 5 shots a game.
Some bad luck as well, he pinged a good 4-5 posts (some of those should go in off the pipe), missed empty nets, Binnington made a crazy good save on him, etc

When you go abroad to someplace like Ireland where they expect you to eat the local cuisine and drink Guinness do you have to smuggle in bourbon and twinkies and bacon fat in your luggage so you are comfortable? How do you get a lifted Ford F-150 with a gun rack on the back through customs there?

Team is playing the same under Travis Green as they did with Ruff. Slow start seems normal for the Devils. Coaching mistakes added to the loss. Jack Hughes is having some bad games, is he trying to do too much, or back too early from injury.
Nothing matters because the Devils are not making the playoffs.
I don't see anything different as a result of the coaching change. I will say it again, I hope that Fitz doesn't think that Green is the answer if he can implement some game strategy changes next season.
I sat Travis Green is a loser, what do I know? The NHL fans in Vancouver sat that Travis Green is a loser, what do they know? The NHL history, records, and data shows Travis Green as a loser, can we accept this info? Please! He broke up Nico and Timo after they had a hat trick in the game before the Canes. He pulled Daws before the Devils had possession of the puck. What has changed?
Onto the Rangers. I don't care if the teams wins or loses at this point, (that's not true, I like winning and I like my teams to win) I don't want Travis Green to keep the Devil's HC job next season.
