I don't know if the team is awful or if the coaching is awful or both, but I know for a fact this team does not fit the system any more. DeBoer coaches a tenacious forecheck that leads to turnovers. We're now a sit back and play slow team. Honestly, this strikes me as the perfect Lemaire team. Him and Boucher could probably work with this roster.

There was a game tonight?

 

[Chessarmy]

The Devils with Parise and Kovalchuk as top offensive threats were perfect for DeBoer's system.

The Devils with Elias and Jagr as top offensive threats with DeBoer's system is equivalent to pounding a square peg into a round hole.

Its just not going to work.

 

[Tundra]

I'd like to a Tedenby-Loktionov-Jagr line. Jagr showed in the playoffs that he can compliment the fleet footed.

Better chance of seeing that in Albany with this current coaching staff.

I'm pretty sure an AHL line could consistently score against a Tedenby-Loktionov-Jagr line.

After this post, I'm hitting the "X" button on this thread, because I have absolutely no desire ever recalling that this game took place.

 

[Bleedred]

Was that goal with 36 seconds left really necessary tonight? That's the signs of a putrid effort right there. Along with the two breakaways on a single PP. That was the easiest shutout and win that Blackburn or whoever that former Rangers pick was, has ever had.

There's no mercy rule in hockey. If you don't want to give up a goal, the team should try to give a ****.

Blackburn lol...he probably did shut us out at one point too.

I know we kid about the Devils getting punked by backups, but they've taken it to a new level this year. LaBarbera, Montoya and MacDonald, all crappy journeyman backups on non-playoff teams, all of whom beat us inside a week.

That's what I'm saying. That extra goal once Cory came back in was completely unnecessary. They shouldn't have even let that happen.

thank you.

This team does not work with this system. Petey needs to change it or he can leave.

 

[njdevils1982]

look out! here we come!!!!


Longest Losing Streak From Start of Season:
11 Games-New York Rangers, 1943-44
7 Games-Montreal Canadiens, 1938-39
7 Games-Chicago Blackhawks, 1947-48
7 Games-Washington Capitals, 1983-84
7 Games-Chicago Blackhawks, 1997-98


...the only hope is an 83-84 caps turnaround ....some mighty streaks that season... http://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/WSH/1984_games.html

 

[Bleedred]

thank you.

He already said he won't do that after Kovalchuk left. They asked him if he'd change his style of play, and he said he wouldn't.

He also said we were on the verge of a breakthrough before this game. Why do I feel like I have been hearing that line for the last 4 or 5 games now?

i don't know how much more of a sample size he needs. 50 games of this **** is enough.

but he still thinks he has parise & kovalchuk, as well as a fluke salvador and a fluke 4th line.

 

[thebigbea]

feel really bad for Schneider.. great goalie on a bad team... wonder if he even want to re-sign there now..

Labarbera is also a former Rangers draft pick like Montoya and Blackburn. These are all BOTTOM 10 goaltenders in the league too. Labarbera and McNugget are probably bottom 5. Forget the goalies, like Chico said. You HAVE to beat BAD teams like Calgary and Winnipeg. Winnipeg is gonna be in the fight for the lottery this year.

feel really bad for Schneider.. great goalie on a bad team... wonder if he even want to re-sign there now..

I doubt it, and I wouldn't blame him either. 2 of the 3 games he's played, he's gotten 0 goal support. He wasn't great in the first game, but was the difference between a blowout tonight.

 

[NJDevs26]

Rumor going around on NJDevs is apparently Schnieder got ticked off in the locker room after the game too (more than what was said in the postgame), but it's a pretty sketchy source so who knows if there's any truth to it. I wouldn't have blamed him for going off on someone after that final shift though where they all quit and let him get bombarded for the extra goal.

I hope it's true.

Absolute **** that either of the goalies should stand for the ****show in from of them.

 

[MartysBetterThanYou]

Anyone have a link to the Schneider interview? I was too busy downing whiskey after that abomination of a hockey game.

 

[Uli Hiemer]

Tom Gulitti ‏@TGfireandice 18m

Devils are 0-3-2 on the road this season and 2-11-8 in their last 21 road games dating back to last season.

2 ****ing wins in the last 21 games on the road...

http://blogs.northjersey.com/blogs/...ing_for_first_win_after_3-0_loss_in_winnipeg/

And this game was a total abomination. Worst effort of the season. A total no show aside from the first 2 or 3 minutes of the game.

Getting shutout by Montoya is just a joke. It's only happened 3 times before tonight. Losing to the Jets is pretty bad, PERIOD. Especially after losing to Calgary and blowing a 3 goal lead in the 3rd period to the other ghosts of Alberta.

 

[Uli Hiemer]

From the Chere article:

Time for a shakeup?

“I don’t know,” DeBoer said. “We have to do something.”


Wisdom.

 

[Bleedred]

I'm sure Gulltti and Chere will rush to get interviews with Lou soon. Ask him what's going on and if coach Dumbeor is on the hot seat. Lou will probably give a status quo like answer.
