It's not a bad thing at all. It's just poor timing from what the team needs right now

Something ain't right. I'm not sure what it is, and I don't think it's a huge thing, but I don't think it's because "it's preseason and it's meaningless".

you know what they say about bad dress rehearsals
no i don't know.

A lot of what Keefe said here made sense to me.

OK... Here I go....
I've always said the the NHL is stupid. If you look at the US nationally broadcast games over the last 10 there are only 7 teams in the league:
Rangers
Bruins
Flyers
Caps
Pens
Blackhawks
Red Wings
Living in Boston I have to fight this battle all the time when I hear Bruins fans (BRUINS FANS!!!!!) complain that the league hates them after every game being on national TV and having played in 67 Winter Classics.
I looked at the numbers a few years ago and out of the 60+ games nationally televised in the US, only 2 didn't involve at least one of those teams.
The Lightning won more Cups in 10 months than the Rangers have in 83 years yet, somehow Tampa was ignored in national broadcasts and the bottom dwelling Red Wings/Blackhawks/Flyers had 30% of their games available to the whole country.
This would be like the NFL having the Jets and Panthers on Sunday/Monday Night Football 9 times each per season and Chiefs on once.
This is something that crawls right up my ass and drive me insane. Always has.
The league wonders why the finals ratings aren't what they should be after they shoved Wings vs Flyers down our throats all season and ignored the better teams so nobody is familiar with teams that are actually good. Pisses me off.
This isn't a Devils thing either. We've been shit for the better part of a decade and don't deserve the spotlight. The spotlight should be on the best teams. This isn't the NBA.
This is my way of saying that the league wishes Jack was on the Caps. I pray it changes.
Thanks for listening

Fired up tonight, The bourbon is kicking in.
I'm done with 2/3rds of that line and I'll give Noesen a month to prove something before I turn on him too.
Tatar is on my watch list as well. Sorry, I know there is a lot of love for him here but he's not a 2nd line wing on a championship team. Toffoli was better. There. I said it.

Pesce seems like he will miss games so definitely can early on.
With Luke and Hatakka hurt if someone moves to the left they both can play as well.
Kid has played three pro games in his life. He deserves a long look but there is nothing wrong with him getting some AHL seasoning

Palat was fine. Haula was like on his death bed a few days ago and Noesen just got here.
