GDT: The Blue Note @ Your NJ Devils, 1/5/2023

[Eggtimer]

Pumped for the game ! Our next big winning streak was kicked off last night . It will keep going long after we get home from the West coast trip .
It’s been a shitty winter so far here so it’s nice to get home , slap the fireplace on and kick back, relax , and watch the Devils win.
Blues can still score at a good rate even without Tank and OReilly .Get on them fast and build up a hood lead early in case our legs get a little tired from the back end of a BtB .
Go Devils Go !

We had a sellout vs Arizona while on the heater.

That was a Saturday night game though, this is a mid-week game post-holiday against a nonconference team. It'll probably have 13500-14000 if only cause of the team still having a good record, but no more than that.

Whats this talk of poor attendance tonight? Place looks like it will be largely full looking at the TM map. Not much blue left. Whenever the 200s are sparsely available, its a big crowd.

Good

Then I hope they boo the f*** out of this worthless POS if he stinks it up again, especially after the goaltending we got last night.

That's assuming he's even playing. We don't know he is.

I thought for sure he was playing last night, with Vitek going tonight.

 

[Bleedred]

I wonder if we get to see our top pick of the 2013 draft tonight, STL called him up yesterday

Cory Schneider plays for the Blues now?

I knew immediately it was Santini. Who didn't look so bad as a rookie on the bottom pairing, before cratering on the top pairing the next season and never looking the same again even when being thrown back into sheltered minutes

I for one hope he gets a lot of cheers for putting in a good game because the team needs it. I don’t like the player but do hope he succeeds. This team needs a good stretch here.

For sucking at home and winning less than 50% of our home games. Be a good crowd on hand.

I think at some point the camera panned the NJ bench and Blackwood was typing away on some sort of tablet. Maybe get the timestamp from the game video and compare it to the posting time when that pro-blackwood message was posted?

How convenient of you to be so quick to point out other possibilities for who the poster could be … Seems “too” convenient… Where and what were YOU doing at that time last night ? Hmmm very interesting . VERY I say !

 

[njdevils1982]

Also not related to the goalie situation, can we turn the Blue Note into the Brown Note tonight?

im wondering how many people get the reference to "the brown note"

Truth be told, I was watching the Pelicans. My middle son is still home and he and my youngest wanted to watch that. I was stuck watching mostly during commercials and halftime after the first period.

 

[Captain3rdLine]

Nothing official or confirmed but someone in the comments saying he doesn’t have asterisk next to his name on the roster anymore. We’ll see if they announce it soon.

 

[Call Me Al]

wooo lets gooo

[Captain3rdLine]

If Palat is back it might be a good time to try the Palat-Hughes-Holtz line. Unless they just want to work him in slower.

Palat Hughes Holtz
Bratt Hischier Mercer
Sharangovich Haula Tatar
Wood McLeod Zetterlund

[Whaddagoal]

Ready to rumble today..... please get a win.

If we play like last game, offensively, we should be good.

If Palat is in. OMG!....

Palat Hughes Holtz
Bratt Hischier Mercer
Sharangovich Haula Tatar
Wood McLeod Zetterlund

Inject that lineup into my veins!

Holtz will get McLeod and Wood again and you’ll like it

 

[Captain3rdLine]

Lol. Well it clearly worked well last game. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

 

[Cheddabombs]

I think it's time we break out our preseason secret weapon. Palat-Hughes-Holtz

 

[Zippy316]

I’ve kinda liked McLeod with Holtz that last game.

Very intrigued what they’re going to do with the lines, especially since they seem to want a center with Hischier as his wrist is banged up. It’s hard to see where Palat fits in without blowing up the duos the Devils have had for the last several weeks.

 

[Rhodes 81]

Holtz will get McLeod and Wood again and you’ll like it

Honestly good with that because then they won't just bench a whole line because Holtz is on it

 

[Rhodes 81]

My guess:
Palat-Hischier-Mercer
Haula-Hughes-Bratt
Wood-McLeod-Holtz
Sharangovich-Boqvist-Tatar

I would swap Tatar and Haula but honestly don't expect it and it's kind of funny how made it makes some people.

 

[Saugus]

I think it's time we break out our preseason secret weapon. Palat-Hughes-Holtz

I wouldn't hate trying this out if Palat is back.

 

[PWiz30]

I know there's a WJC thread but since it's Luke, I'm putting it here.
