Wish the Devils had a fellow Russian player on the final NHL roster to help ease the language barrier difficulties and culture issues Kalinin will continue to deal with. He's got a lot to contend with aside from acclimating to the NHL game.Kalinin's likely going to be on the 4th line anyway...as long as he chips in a few goals and plays solid hockey he's doing his job.

I hear there's some high-scoring Russian winger looking to come to the U.S. but it won't be until next season
not sure what this hard decision is about Zacha. I was at the game tonight and forgot he was even on the ice. Didn't see him do anything special at all. He isn't ready for the big league and anyone who was thinking he would be was kidding themselves. Give him a few years to develop.
That's cause he actually wasn't on the ice.
I realize he didn't play in this particular game, but its inclusion in this thread was really nothing more then continuing the ongoing discussion of the preseason so far. Should have posted it elsewhere in hindsight. Hynes, after the game commented on how Zacha made it a difficult decision for management which I thought was worthy of a mentioning regardless of whether or not he makes the final roster. His goal was to make the Devils out of camp this season and to his credit he did everything in his power to contend for a spot.not sure what this hard decision is about Zacha.

Oh god, just imagine what a ********* that would be.
I think the important thing is the team and individuals have been improving as preseason went along.
Very pleased with how the guys performed over preseason.
There are game highlights on the Devils YouTube channel, goal song sounds good
they put the whole game on youtube(1 hour 8 minutes long).
From listing to the Flyer radio broadcast you would think Kalinlin was a Flyer player the way they raved about him, stating that no know whe he is now, but they will soon. Glad to hear he had a very good game. I guess Severson didn't have a good game. However, he's not Gellinis so he gets a pass from most fans.
I think the siren is awesome! Maybe it just sounded cool over the radio feed.
I thought it was cheesy at first, like the one the Capitals use. Ours is a little cooler though.
Wow NJ Devils Youtube just posted the entire game from last night if anyone is interested. There are also highlight videos on the youtube page if you rather look for that. Pretty cool! Remember, first period was slow as hell.
