GDT: Preseason Game 2: Devils @ Canadiens - 7 P.M.

[Whaddagoal]

Ready to be disappointed tonight.

4th line prepping 1st line slot.

Curious to see nemec and Casey and hatakka

 

[Xirik]

the only things to watch for this game is

- The meats and mitts line
- Nemec vs Slafkovsky and Mesar
- It's casey up to bat
- I guess Hatakka is worth a look

Anyone joining this site for the first time ever on this GDT would be out of here so fast. Anyone have the facetiousness meter for today's GDT?

Is Jack and Meier gunna play ever

Probably tomorrow.

somehow we are going to win. i believe it

I take it you haven’t seen preseason football?

I think preseason football is way better due the roster sizes being so massive, hockey teams have 90-95% their rosters set already if not the whole team

I guess if you get into the whole roster spots #40-53 numbers game it's got some intrigue but for every Victor Cruz there's a thousand guys you won't remember in two weeks. Even the NHL All-Star game resembles hockey more than preseason football resembles actual professional football (especially since teams started doing more controlled scrimmages during the week and getting their planned work in then) - there's no game plan, no fancy plays and no chemistry...basically every game is a boring 13-9 field goal bonanza unless some fourth-string QB gets on a heater.

 

[NJDevs26]

Honestly for a preseason, given who is out injured, that's not the worst D I have ever seen.

That is, however, the single worst forward group I have ever laid eyes upon in any context. Jesus, f***ing CHRIST

Not only that but the regulars are playing tomorrow - both because it's a home game and because it's their last game before the trip. I didn't figure on most of them to play all three games in four days so the schedule 'worked out' from that aspect.

i’ve never been more certain of anything in my life

At my age a birthday is - "Congratulations for making it through another year!!!!!!!!

For you - "Happy Birthday!" Enjoy your evening out. Be sensible.

 

[Aurinko]

holy shit lol

This is bit brootal start for poor Sheldon...

Hopefully by the last preseason games he will have *some* idea what kind of team he has.

Hatakka should be solid D.

He was +5 in 12 games in last season's "minus" team.

 

[Emperoreddy]

This is basically the lineup you get when they do those two games in one day schedule only the second local game is tomorrow instead of today.

We always skipped the AHL Montreal game
