GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (14-7-2, 30 Pts) vs. Nashville Predators (7-11-3, 17 Pts), 7 PM, MSGSN

[Bankers Box]

I wasn’t even upset when Timo took the penalty.

Sticking up for yourself and teammates is something you have the privilege of doing when you’re up in the game and in standings.

If this was a close game in the playoffs, I wouldn’t have been amused.

 

[Patrik26]

32 points on the season as of tonight, November 25th. The team didn't get to 33 until December 16th last season.

 

[HoliksGhost]

Are we ready to give Fitz some credit ? The off season moves fit perfectly. We are a good team

 

[Guadana]

He only had a secondary assist tonight, but I want to give a shoutout to Mercer.

He did all the little things right: forechecking hard, breaking up passes with an active stick, and being an absolute menace on the PK. Big part of why we won so convincingly tonight.

Yeah, Mercer was good in preventing passes and making pressure. He was in inch away in the end of the game to make a break away against standing opponent. Good game from him.

5 more winnable games coming up

 

[Maine Fan]

I am late offering congrats to the NJ Devils for their win 5-2 and to Nico for the hat trick.

Onto the next one St Louis on Wednesday at home.

Isn't rooting for a team that is winning, fun.

Go Devils

 

[TheUnseenHand]

there wasn't a 5 minute major in any of those games

Because they weren't utterly controlling those games with some kid on the other side acting an absolute fool. They owned that game and taught an idiot kid a lesson. I'm not worried. There was never a moment of doubt in that game and it allowed Timo to do what he did. Not that I think he was even trying to do that.

I imagine if that kid ended up hurting someone in a game we had total control of we would be asking why no one let him have it.

 

[devilsfan950003]

Yes. They can actually play hockey and are like replacement level-ish players. Tatar will always make a line like that work very well

Can that 4th line play 10-plus minutes a game? They're looking solid out there. Bowers showing some speed.

 

[DerekDevils30]

It shouldn't be seen as greedy given the competition.

Blues will be much more of a test than whatever that was from Nashville tonight but agreed. Play like they did tonight and I love their chances

 

[Emperoreddy]

For those who didn’t get to see this like me, because your 3 year old requires several bedtime stories.

THATS MY CAPTAIN!

Blues have been even worse than the Preds this year but yeah things would probably look different with a full year of Montgomery

 

[Forge]

Not the point, but if you think L'Heureux learns anything from that, you're not familiar with him

They played 10 tonight. Granted against an awful team but I trust Tatar to make things work against good teams as well.

Not the point, but if you think L'Heureux learns anything from that, you're not familiar with him

lol He might be the biggest psycho in the league

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Not the point, but if you think L'Heureux learns anything from that, you're not familiar with him

Well that's fair, yes. But if nothing else he should know he will at least face substantial push back to his shenanigans.

 

[Guadana]

Yeah its his dna. We need a guy like him with bad character and skill in the same time.

I've said it before, I'll say it again (idk how many times I have to say it). I never agree with players being dumb with retaliation penalties. It will always get called (against this team). You respond by doing the same thing to them.

I feel you're misunderstanding what I said. I never said this isn't a good team. All I said is, dumb play like that can kill them against a good team (Preds are trash).

 

[Better Call Sal]

You can see how much it means to Nico to hear the love from the fans. Warms my heart. Love this kid.

 

[Devs3cups]

Nico is just an absolute cutie pie. Love this guy.

My captain. Devil for life. Lifer vibes.

 

[Maine Fan]

HoliksGhost offered credit to Fitz for his off season moves and rightfully so. Buy let us not forget Keefe is in the trenches with our players getting it done.

We are a team, a very good team. I have said before I am proud to be a fan.

Go Devils

 

[DerekDevils30]

You can see how much it means to Nico to hear the love from the fans. Warms my heart. Love this kid.

Can we find a loophole and lock him up beyond his current contract already?

 

[Lou Bloom]

Mercer has really stepped up his game this year as a whole. His skating looks much improved from last year and he's finally realizing his potential defensively. I also think he's been more dangerous than his point totals would suggest, looking like the two way impact player we though he could become.

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

Well that's fair, yes. But if nothing else he should know he will at least face substantial push back to his shenanigans.

I know agitators are not as common these days but boy, seems you forgot how they work lol. They aren't deterred from that whatsoever. They will keep doing it (maybe until it starts hurting their team, like their stars getting injured)

 

[Devs3cups]

2 years left after this one. His next contract should be well worth it.
