6 goals on 2.2 expected lol

 

[Devils731]

You hear about game management but there was none by the refs tonight. They stayed loose on the caps even with them winning and getting the 5th goal on arguably a trip.

 

[RNCDevil]

November 10 is the rematch.

 

[DerekDevils30]

6 shots between the first and third period

Unacceptable stuff for sure. Lots to work on.

 

[glenwo2]

What an absolute disaster.

Just an utter disaster.


They should be ashamed of themselves.

They embarrassed the Franchise, the Fans, and all of NJ on TV (and I mean everywhere not just Local) with their effort tonight.

This is going to keep me pissed off a TON for a loong-ass time.

Even if they win the next game, I will still be annoyed and pissed at them.


This is the type of loss on Nation-wide TV that creates a "Narrative" about the NJ Devils that is not flattering.

 

[PWiz30]

Horrible loss punctuated by that irredeemable scumbag scoring an empty netter. We also had an infuriating loss at home against the Capitals in game 6 of last season.

 

[Marv4Life]

The $8 million dude hasn't been around in over a year. But it's not only on him.

 

[forceten]

We really need a goaltender.

 

[guitarguyvic]

They stunk it up…but they’ve been bad in period 1 almost every game this year and plenty last year. The goalie is why we have little chance to win

better period huh @guitarguyvic

They played one good period. Sucks.

 

[Devilsgrl35]

Shirley, you can't be serious?

The trip on Luke when it was tied at 4. Led to the 2 on 1. It was an obvious trip.

 

[JrFischer54]

There are none available.

I’m just saying to all the cap space over age 30 worry crowd on here.

 

[Dylan9z9]

6 shots between the first and third period

Pure garbage

 

[glenwo2]

Hey fitz, how’s it feel up there watching your team lose in embarrassing fashion to a team that’s been a dumpster fire so far and in the process your two golden boy goalies get outdualed by a 28 year old journeyman in his first game ever? Or maybe you are still too busy patting yourself on the back for your off-season paper championship? f***ing disgrace this team is a LOSER.

Why are you repeating yourself?

 

[Emperoreddy]

That game sucked but the overreactions by a select few are even more embarrassing.

 

[Dialamo]

Yeah I'm not going to dwell too much over a single regular season game.

 

[Devs3cups]

The $8 million dude hasn't been around in over a year. But it's not only on him.

Who exactly are you talking about?

 

[Oneiro]

This team would be winless if Hughes wasn't playing out of his damn mind.

Can't say that about any other contender (removing 1 player).

Waaaahhhh but the GOALIES. OR THE REFS. No, they collectively as a team aren't playing good enough. Period.

It's exactly what I said after the 1st tonight ironically. They take 2 periods off practically every game. It's absurd.

Oh look it’s Captain Hindsight again with more CONTENT.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Awful refereeing aside, defense/goaltending combo is veering into concerning territory.

 

[Xirik]

 

[TF1970]

All you need to remember too. They have literally played all bottom end teams so far. Wait til they start getting their doors blown off by actual legit opposition. The defense will continue to crumble and goaltending will be even worse.

 

[Bleedred]

We played like complete shit but our goaltending SUCKS

A few more games like this and I wouldn’t be surprised to see Schmid temporarily demoted to Utica.

But I don’t expect him to play again until next Thursday at the earliest.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

They showed how to play this game in the 2nd. Why the letup in the 3rd?

Another conditioning practice until they want to play a full game not a full period.

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

This team would be winless if Hughes wasn't playing out of his damn mind.

Wins? They'd have a ton less goals.

 

[glenwo2]

No problem at all giving a big money contract to a legit #1 goalie I don’t care if he is 30 yeaes old

Hope they want Mercer.

At this point, I'd be down to getting HelleBuyck for him (plus something else).
