GDT: You'll Shoot Yer Eye Out, Kid! Sabres @ Devils, 7 PM, MSG+

[Blender]

Zajac and Palmieri had brutal games, both were f***ing terrible tonight. Coleman had his worst game of the season.

Hynes OT choices were maddening. Why are our two worst offensive players touching the f***ing ice in OT?

 

[Edmonton East]

Sample size this season is enough for me. Zajac is done and a detriment to this team's style.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Fix is in for that stupid Road to the Winter Classic.

Will they show that bullshit over turned call, or Eichel elbowing Palms in the face?

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Just an infuriating loss. Please take Zajac away from the skilled players, he’s killing Johansson and Palmieri. He’s a bum right now, he should be getting 4th line minutes and PK time, that’s it.

 

[palek1019]

Welp, time for whiskey. Just awful. That Hall goal was such a beauty.

Hopefully they'll come out angry tomorrow.

 

[Bleedred]

ZAJAC HAS BEEN GARBAGE FOR 5+ GAMES BUT YOU USE HIM IN OT...MAKES SENSE

5+ games?

More like 20 games.

He looks cooked. This is very concerning. I know players have bad season and bounce back, but this is much worse than the equivalent of Schneider having a .908 season of goaltending.

This is like a sub .890 season from Schneider, that's what this is the equivalent of at this point.

Corsi stats are in the toilet, on pace for 8 or 9 points, gets handed PP time and 3 on 3 time. Stunk on the PK once again.

 

[Devils731]

That goal was on cory... Idk why he was playing so deep. Thats giving the shooter half the net and more time to get a perfect shot

It was a 2 on 0 effectively, since Kane wasn’t covered either.

Schneider is the only goalie expected to stop 2 on 0’s. Lol

Of course that shit will be edited out.

 

[EnglishDevil]

I've had it with Zajac.

He looks worse than Stafford did when he was playing.

Corsi stats, eye test, 2 points in 20 games. Forced to play with two pretty good forwards. Ample power play time, ample 3 on 3 times.

He's been abysmal.

Agreed, at first I thought he was just rusty from the injury layoff, now i’m convinced he just sucks. Coleman is a better player than him at this point, hopefully the staff will realize this eventually.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Zajac and Palmieri had brutal games, both were ****ing terrible tonight. Coleman had his worst game of the season.

They are playing not to lose in OT and it is annoying.

 

[Jets012]

Hynes' stupidity and his reluctance to not use Nico with Hall in OT is mind-boggling.

 

[John Pedro]

NHL is becoming the NFL with those interpretative rules that no one for sure can tell what's offside, what's a cross-checking (Nico got cross-checked multiples time today, no call but they called Palmieri for cross-checking against the rags on an identical play). So frustrating.

Can we return Zajac to IR? stone-hands has been even worse this season.

 

[glenwo2]

Not the result we wanted but still got a point, still have multiple games in hand vs many in the metro.
Cory got caught too deep in his crease at the end....

Meh.

Only saving grace is that the Caps aren't playing tonight so at least we extended the lead to one point above.

and hopefully Ottawa continues to do what they're doing to the Blue Jackets and win in regulation.

That's the game I'm watching right now and praying they hold on.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Hynes' stupidity and his reluctance to not use Nico with Hall in OT is mind-boggling.

Nico did have a shot to win this game. So did Bratt.

How Lehner got away with covering the puck and then tossing it was horseshit too

 

[Cult of Hynes]

How the f*** do you get out coached by Housley and in your home arena and not put a center on the ice against O'Reilly? And you go with Palms? He was kind of ass tonight. And the Zajac love affair with this daft staff needs to stop.

You have Hall, Hischier, Zacha, Wood, MoJo, Bratt and Palms to choose from, and you use f***ing Zajac, and you don't match up a center against O'Reilly, who is good at face offs, instead you use Palms against him lol.

And thank god for Zajac and Greene getting top pairing and top 6 minutes. they sure helped use win with missing wide open net tip ins.

 

[Bcap88]

Missed elbow call which lead to goal number 2, overturned taylor hall goal which was clearly onside........Lehner covers the puck but the refs didnt blow it dead leading to a faceoff in our zone which was the game winner. cant make this bullshit up

 

[glenwo2]

They deserved to lose. They only looked decent because Buffalo is the worst team they have played in years. Poor effort against a garbage team. The refs were awful too.

Playing down to the competition.

How many times have we seen this in Devils franchise history?

It doesn't matter what team it is or what era it is, Devils always play down to sucky-Teams level.

 

[Bleedred]

Just an infuriating loss. Please take Zajac away from the skilled players, he’s killing Johansson and Palmieri. He’s a bum right now, he should be getting 4th line minutes and PK time, that’s it.

I've run out of any good things to say about Zajac at this point.

I mean, he's been SCARY bad. I can't believe how bad he's been. Fall off a cliff much?

 

[Chessarmy]

Imagine thinking that offside challenges are a good idea when the player is less than a centimeter off.

It’s the worst rule in league history. The sad part is we’re going to see this trash f*** up a Stanley Cup Final game 7 one day before they do something about it.

He's been abysmal.

He's done very little since coming back. Looks slow and out of place.. don't need stats or whatever corsi is to tell.me.he sucks

 

[tr83]

I hope you will all be comforted tomorrow when the league issues an apology for overturning the goal

 

[None Shall Pass]

You guys are forgetting that the joke Sabres are being recorded for ROAD TO THE NHL WINTER CLASSIC, so gary ****ing called this one in for some drama.

Fix is in for that stupid Road to the Winter Classic.

I truly and sincerely hope you two don't actually believe what you're saying.

This board is a coke-addled parody of itself after a loss.

 

[MauDevils]

Still waiting for that definitive shot that allowed the Hall goal to be overturned.

 

[britdevil]

Zajac needs to sit. He's a hot mess right now.

 

[glenwo2]

This result is so ****ing laughable I don’t even know where to start. Regulation goal taken off the board only to lose in this horse **** ****ing gimmick. Bush league doesn’t begin to describe this.

OT is not a gimmick.

I have no problem with 3-on-3.
