They won five of their last seven games only after losing losing their first NINE games of the season......

#MARKETCORRECTIO

They've won five of their last seven games - and were playing without two of their better players (Smith and Walman).

Please no excuses for this debacle

Eh, let these former Devils enjoy it. They were specifically good tonight.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Montreal is currently the worst team in the league if we are being honest

 

[Triumph]

At some point here, Keefe is going to have to turn the tempo back up a bit. The Devils cannot be getting no breakaways or odd-man rushes against a team this bad.

Probably needed some sort of mind frame check before playing Florida. If they win this after getting lucky v the Isles, they're getting boatraced twice by the Panthers. Maybe, just maybe, they get mad enough and say enough enough's with passing the puck in the net and the other bullshit.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I'd rather have the clunker now than coming up given they've got Florida x2, Tampa, Carolina, and Washington in the next 5. They probably got caught looking ahead to that stretch tonight.

Was the trappiest of the trap games.

They need to go to the net. When was the last time they accidentally on purpose knocked into a goalie “incidentally”?

It feels safe doesn’t it?

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Win a couple you probably shouldn't, lose one you could have won. These things tend to balance themselves out.

 

[Emperoreddy]

This place is unbearable. You would think we just got outshot 50-10 and lost 6-0. My goodness.

And that's with some of the worst offenders being absent tonight.

Going to be a long season if we lose our shit after every L.

Haven’t even watched the last 2 games and I approve of this message. Feels like every L is the end of the world.

Really? He was pretty present the first 2 periods lol

Probably just within the last week, they should've lost the Isles + Edmonton games. Like I said above, maybe a loss like this is good before a murdrers row of opponents comes up.

 

[DrBSmooth]

I have bad luck against these garbage teams. Was in a suite for losses to San Jose and Anaheim last year, and now this clunker.

 

[Triumph]

I think they had a guy at the net for a lot of the night, Blackwood was just shockingly not giving up rebounds. But yeah, he didn't get bumped much.

Some folks got shown the door

I mean, give the Sharks credit. They played a good game. One bad bounce off Timo Meier.

I always liked Blackwood, so good for him. I'd actually be happy if he does end up being one of the best goalies in the league once the Sharks grow up.

They played a solid defensive game and game him a chance on all the saves.

We did plenty of wonky garbage throwing pucks away... That's really my only criticism. It would be nice on nights when we 'don't have it' that we could play a simple, straightforward, complete your passes and get the picks to the net game instead of ice capades circling the net and low chance backhands.

I'm sure we dominated on the stats and time of possession but the Sharks actually had more dangerous chances except for that one sequence where Blackwood snow Angeled. Everything else was pretty easily stoppable.

Yeah for as bad as team as the Sharks are, they were skating pretty well tonight.

They didn't play a bad game at all.

Blackwood giving up nearly zero rebound chances didn't help, and it felt like the Sharks were doing well clogging up shooting lanes.

We didn't have our best, bit too sloppy and cute, but also far from our worst effort either.

Just an annoying game you put behind you

 

[devilsfan950003]

Now they'll lose three in a row with two Florida away games. Pathetic showing.

 

[NJDevils17]

Sharks haven’t been bad recently. Playing some inspired hockey surprisingly.

Bad loss but back-to-back in a look ahead spot. Don’t like it but understand it.

 

[Whaddagoal]

Mercer needs to be reprimanded for not taking that slot shot. That was the most memorable part of the game for me. That and the crowd later chanting shoot the puck in unison and the bronx cheer. That was wild.

Nico/Noesen and a few others failed the scrum goals, but blackwood gave no juicy rebounds in locations that helped us.

Good for Blackwood lol, he certainly decided to show up tonight when he would more rarely play like that here by the end.

They do need to get better at turning games like these into points.
