GDT: It's All Uphill From Here: Your New Jersey Devils @ Philadelphia Flyers, 1 PM, TNT/TruTV/MAX

[Dylan9z9]

Not an indictment on the player. Again, prime scoring opportunity in the 1st period, created by Bratt out of nothing, and he did NOT score. That was what happened in the 1st period.

 

[Billdo]

So far so good. Any chance they can insert MacDermid into the lineup for the third period to have the fight Deslaurier desperately wants?

That's what he's here for yet he's not in the lineup. If Dillon fights DeSlaurier he's going to get worked.

 

[NjDevsRR]

It's been an issue through multiple coaches for going on 15 years at this point. I NEVER feel comfortable with a 1 goal lead with less than 2 mins, ever.

I wonder if there are any stats on this

@Guttersniped ?

And I think a ton of fanbases will say this, ive been watching a lot of OTT games lately and these hectic last min sequences are happening everywhere

Oh I'm sure it's not unique to us, we're just hyper focused on it because we see it all the time as fans.

We need the first line to get going here . I’m not dumping on them . We just need them to get hot so they can get on a heater and gain some confidence and hopefully help carry us into the playoffs . That line needs to get cooking in order for us to do some damage.

 

[Bleedred]

Picking up right back where we left off at the end of the 1st I see.

And I hope they keep Michkov benched the rest of the game.

 

[Satans Hockey]

Guys came out this period snoozing besides Allen, wake up.

The problem with the first line now is everybody knows against whom they should send the best defensive opposition.

Cody Glass has 1 goal in 1 game. The guy he replaced has ZERO points in his last 28 games. Fire Haula to the f***ing moon. I loved this guy but his demise is the stuff of legends.

 

[Devs3cups]

Nice chance Sprong

He's been pretty much downhill since he wore a "Canes suck" bracelet after losing to them in the playoffs.

 

[VoidCreature]

Sprong actually wants to shoot the puck, we need so much more of that.

 

[theoptimist]

Yes, that is what happened.

I took your original post where you were saying "How many assists does Bratt have?" after commenting on one of his scoring chances as an indictment/a shot at the player. Apologies if I misunderstood, not trying to misinterpret anyone here and I like reading your posts!

I rank Bratt among the top 5 forwards in this franchise’s history.

That opportunity however is what xG 0.7-0.9? He did NOT score. So that’s 0 goals for the team.

 

[Dialamo]

18 point spread at one point vs the Rags. Unreal.

 

[Satans Hockey]

Damn so close Mercer

 

[Devs3cups]

Mercer post damn

 

[Bleedred]

Starting to look like we might need Allen to steal another.

Mercer beats Stinkbomb or whatever this goalie's name is on a really long shot, but it hits the post lol.

 

[NJDevs26]

5 scoring chances along with those 5 shots tho

Scoring chances were 5-2

So basically the inverse of their normal fifteen shots on goal and one quality chance they flub

 

[My3Sons]

Nice shot Dawson

 

[Devs3cups]

Mercer needs to shoot more. He has a pretty good shot.

 

[NJersey]

Keep shooting sprong

Are we considering the playoffs because while I like Bratt he's not even in the top 10 forwards of this teams history when you factor in playoffs.

OMG

 

[My3Sons]

He stirred the drink!!! The miracle is going to happen!!
