Did you watch the game? Hughes was a beast defending the net and on breakouts. Legit saved a goal with a stick check.Devils forwards had one of their best two-way games of the year and Oilers without McDavid were much like the Devils on Friday against the Flames; soft and content to play on the perimeter.
Not sure that equates to a "monster game" from Luke Hughes.
Those highlights didn't look too flattering outside of Allen. Take the W and run I guess.
That’s a tough matchup on the road. Hischier was above 50% on expected goals and scoring chances and high danger chances so not bad as a matchup effort for the third line.That's even better. Thank you, the highlight and compare is just what was needed.
Most of the shifts Nico took was against Draisaitl
Agreed. Seems to have a big emphasis on that. He’s also had a few good rushes, the points will come.Luke only has 1 point and I couldn’t be happier with his play so far. He has taken a huge jump defensively.
There were some chance trading and Allen was solid in those, but it settled down. We had a very solid 3rd period, so-so second.Didn’t watch the game last night, however, I watched the Devils recap and it looked like we gave up several odd man rushes. Was that the case?
