why are we catering the Pyatt? It's not like the guy has ever been THAT good of a player?
wait, here's why...
He had ONE good season from 06-07 where he scored 23 goals in 76 games. That's about .3 goals per game.... Over the last seven seasons, he's averaged 12.5 goals per year...
Guess what team that was?... Yep, you guessed it, the good ol' Canucks... It's no wonder AV still sees potential from him. It's too bad he can't realize that was 7 years ago...
Every other season has been under 15 goals with the exception of 2 (for 18 and 16 goals)... ****ing pathetic. His "game" the past 3 years has been awful

The Devils will also be extremely hungry looking for their first win. This has loss written all over it.

Larsson is a bust, Urbom is given away for free to the Caps where he's looking pretty damn good. The have a couple of middling Dmen prospects but no 1 or 2 Dman out of that bunch. They have absolutely no one at all with any offensive upside anywhere in their system.
They traded a first rounder for Schneider who is going to walk next year, they don't have a first this year and that would have been a very high pick. They're weighed down with so, so many bad contracts as well as Brodeur who now gives up 2-3 bad goals a game, up from the usual 1 bad goal a game that he's been at for the last few years. And finally, they have a horribly outmatched GM who hasn't known what to do since Lockout I. Also, Stevens looks clueless as part of Dum Dum DeBoer's staff. How much you want to bet that he gets the next head coaching staff job, after all MacLean had so much success.
Having said all that, the game against the Rangers is like the Stanley Cup for the dead end Devils and their fans, the highlight of their abyssmal season. Let's just get this one under our belt and keep carrying on learning AV's system and turning things around during the big homestand.

I don't know. No one knows more about Schneider than AV and his tendencies. This could be a good thing.. if he handles the puck well like Marty, Rangers should try to shoot the puck as much as possible.. look for those fluke/ugly goals

He didn't get any better when he was in the AHL. It's almost as if he plateaued. I assume he'll get over the hump one day, but I don't anticipate anything special from his career.
He's 20. The criticism against him has been pretty harsh even though he looks so pedestrian.

And it's his third season and he still looks as mediocre as his first game. Zero improvement is definitely a problem no matter how you look at it.

.865 ugh.
dude just needs to go away. his slowness has actually gotten slower.
hes a dick but hes had an amazing career. the longer he stays, the more he sullies his reputation. then again, let him stay...
I hate Brodeur as much, if not more than most Ranger fans...but there's pretty much nothing he can do on the ice to sully his reputation. He is solidly one of the six greatest goalies of all time, and nothing he does from here on out will change that (similar to Chelios's last few years in the NHL).
Wouldn't say it is as much plateud as it was his potential just being overrated.
No matter how smart you are, without a game breaking ability you won't be a premiere defenseman in the NHL.

I say plateaued because I think he's the same guy as the day he was drafted. Just no real improvement or anything. Sort of weird.
In that sense it's definitely true. He does resemble the 18 year old Larsson to a T.
