GDT: Panthers @ Devils - 7:30 PM - ESPN+ HULU

[Emperoreddy]

This is just a really hard fought game

Neither team has their A game, but they both want it.

 

[NjDevsRR]

lol If we had Dano on the call we definitely would've heard him get scared at Jack sliding that one back to the D across the front of the net.

 

[Killing Joke]

Jack hooked so badly there.

 

[Hisch13r]

This is just a really hard fought game

The 3rd period is. First 2 was just bad hockey by both.

 

[Nocashstyle]

Him and Zetterlund were the reasons that 22-23 team could run 4 lines nightly and just skate teams into the ground. It's pretty obvious they overreacted to losing to Carolina and got slower and led to the mess we saw in 23-24 until they had to fix it this past offseason. Fitz/company are pretty damn good at proactive but some of the depth issues are caused by them.

I just feel like there’s some revisionist history going on about Boqvist right now. Zetterlund actively brought something to the table. Boqvist didn’t do much good or bad and not many seemed super upset when they moved on from him.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Pesce making things happen...but obviously he was an awful signing

 

[Louskoolaid89]

This is just a really hard fought game

Playoff style hockey and this team seems to be more built for it than it's been in a long while!

 

[JimEIV]

And we have a 0 game player on the roster for 1M

Anyone that we would sit for Boqvist is a marginal difference at best... personally I'm not sure I would sit anyone currently on the roster for him...but I haven't given it much thought.

 

[Bleedred]

Just don't do anything stupid late here.

Stay out of our end.

 

[My3Sons]

Responsible depth forward who can absolutely fly and have some offensive instincts was our bread and butter in 22-23. Its what we need right now

I think we are looking at a different Boquist. He looks to have developed his B game a bit since he was with NJ

 

[Dylan9z9]

the uncertainty on Mcleod should have been enough of a reason to bring him back. he has positional versatility and fast/skilled enough to play with the top guys on the team in a pinch

 

[NjDevsRR]

Oooo that stick work by Siegs

Oh my

The issue isn't that the Boqvist himself is some world beater, he's a good player, but he's most likely a dime or dozen.. It's the idea how they moved away from the identity of elite skating guys because of one series not going their way. They panicked and thought they were too soft v Carolina. When in reality, they got no goaltending from Schmid/Vitek and their backend consistently shit themselves. It had nothing to do with the forwards which has led to depth issues now.

 

[Bleedred]

This is getting just a little too exciting.

 

[NjDevsRR]

PUCKS HAVE TO GO IN DEEP

TATAR WHAT YOU DOING

 

[theoptimist]

Tatar is a liability

 

[My3Sons]

at what point will Markstrom’s elevated play result in extra offense for NJ?

 

[JimEIV]

View attachment 961142

It's Massachusetts DNA

 

[Whaddagoal]

Dillon had more time and through it out there when everyone was changing. Not the best play.

MacDermid would never touch the lineup unless for Flyers/Rangers games if they had Boqvist. Bastian would be less of a regular than Boqvist too

 

[NjDevsRR]

That no call is wild

 

[Louskoolaid89]

Was that knee on knee?

 

[Emperoreddy]

f*** OFF REFS

 

[Devs3cups]

Wow, what a non call

 

[Saugus]

Jack was absolutely tackled there.

Refs: clean play
