I don't think I have ever seen a goaltender completely turn backwards to watch the guy behind the net. What are you gonna do? Block a shot with your back? Yeah I aint relying on Blackwood for next season. He looks awful.
He’s rusty as hell . He lost his balance and got turned around . Couldn’t recover in time . It wasn’t like he was planning on turning around to watch the puck carrier

EVERY goal tonight is a stoppable one.

Unless the first one deflected off of Hamilton.

Mickey Redmond said on the first goal when I watched the video again, he didn't understand how Blackwood missed it, but goes on to say as the video is ending that maybe it went off Dougie Hamilton.

I don't think these two games seal his fate for being bad next year, but I've never had much confidence of him being better than average again. I'm getting bad vibes that he'll be in Utica and Daws will be up to backup at some point next year like we did with Cory in 2019.

That was amazing watching all five Devils stand around with their thumbs up their asses while two Wings clowned them for a goal.

Ok how’s this next season:

Bratt Hughes Mercer
Shara Hischier Holtz
Foote Boquist Zetterlund
Woof McLeod Bastian
Zacha - probably starts at RW2 if Holtz isn’t ready
I don't think we have room for all the kids. We need 1 or 2 vets who can score decently but also play defense. We run Nico into the ground because we rely on him to do everything, which is why he's always hurt. It's also why it feels like McLeod plays too much.

Yes . I want a 3rd line that are defensively very good . We could use some vets on the roster . We have seen how far you get with a lineup of all kids . We need to construct the forward group different .

I’m not sure they bring in any notable veterans until they can be rid of Johnsson and Tatar and Zacha whic I am skeptical happens this offseason. Fitz has to replace PK and get two goalies which is a tall order already it seems.
