The Sheldon Keefe Era Begins
Can't believe they didn't keep Kevin Lebanc WTF!
We offered him the same contract as Columbus. But we couldn't guarantee NHL so he would have to play AHL probably.

Casey's the best transition D on the team. You don't sit him. I think you have to at least go 7D for now. Reevaluate how things look when Luke's back.Might have to alternate Casey and Kov when Pesce is back. Then send Casey down when Luke gets back and tell Casey, “go down there and don’t sulk cause you can play. Go be the best Comet player. Not D, player.”
Didn't say today plus if Nate goes how is that 11?You would have played 11 forwards today just to keep LeBanc?
Isn't this misleading because it counts for just missed empty net shots? So if you had 3 close chances, it's add around 2 goals, as we see in this graph.

I think this trade is going to be one of those Herb Brooks 'I'm not looking for the best players, I'm looking for the right players' type of trade.
A good system with players buying into it allows you to have a rookie playing his first games on his off side with a sophomore coming off an injury and look good to great defensively. Sky is the limit with this group

Wow again I didn't say todayPalat couldn't play today and LeBanc is in America.
If you didn’t doom post every second of the day you’d understand the Devils current roster situation and what was best for Labanc and his futureDidn't say today plus if Nate goes how is that 11?
As well as he’s done I’d imagine we do send Casey down eventually. It’s the easiest one to explain and justify. Doesn’t have to go through waivers, is only 20 and fresh out of college, still had some mistakes, and they did limit his minutes quite a bit outside of the powerplay. We have an overload and they would have no problem letting him marinate in the AHL a bit and then be the first call up.So uh... we have a (good) problem. You can't sit Casey or Kovacevic.
You can't not play L Hughes and Pesce.
Misyul should be getting looks but he's 9th on a depth chart here ...
Just wow.
Well I’m mostly talking the natives and the people who already live over. Not necessarily the people who traveled.We're also a better team. And our fans probably have more disposable income with a lot of fans being close to NYC. But I can see Elias factor coming to play as well.
The added depth from Noesen, Cotter, Dillon, Kovacevic, has significantly raised the floor of this team, they can win without the young stars having to go supernova every night.
Their ability to forecheck is exponentially better and the defensive structure is night and day. It's also nice to have goalies that don't spot the opposing team a 2-0 lead in the first 10 minutes of the first.
This team is clearly more resilient and isn't going to just crumble with a few injuries.

I wouldn’t be crazy surprised if they sent Nemec down but I doubt they will. I’d imagine it will just be between Nemec and Kovacevic for the 3RD spot once all are healthy.
Calling someone who’s played 2 games with around 12 minutes of TOI our best transition D is getting a bit ahead of yourself. Not against 7D when Pesce’s back but I think Casey will ultimately be sent down eventually so that would just delaying it and taking minutes from everyone including him.Casey's the best transition D on the team. You don't sit him. I think you have to at least go 7D for now. Reevaluate how things look when Luke's back.
