GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (16-13-2, 34 Pts) vs. Detroit Red Wings (16-13-4, 36 Pts), 7 PM, MSGSN

[MB3]

I hope the devils sit tight and do do anything rash. It’s not like they’re staring down the barrel of a 4 game losing streak going into christmas on the outside looking in of a playoff spot.

I'm a big fan of Fitz and the job he's done but he needs to do something, anything, unless he's willing to throw this season away.

Wonder if there is ownership pressure to do something. The building has been full all season. There is a going to be a lot of season ticket cancellations if the season goes south for next year.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Good for Bratt

That's what Nico needs to do.

 

[Eggtimer]

Sticking with VV for this season is going to waste a year of the kids .

 

[jkrdevil]

When your superstar is not engaged for a month, the coach has to go

I know he is probably guarding against injury, but it is getting to the point where he is saving his shoulder for golf season at this point .

 

[Devils Pride 26]

This is pathetic. Fire Lindy

 

[Camille the Eel]

We are outplaying them. Keep it up and be patient. The ice is such shit that fancy passes aren’t going to work. It’s going to take ugly goals and broken plays in front. Get the puck in deep and go to the net.

I didn't think it would come to this for this year. But it's true, Lindy needs to go.

That doesn’t explain the dumb turnovers or petulant whining to the refs

 

[jkrdevil]

Dougie was barely playing the PP when he was in.

Doing a bang up job with the turnovers 2 feet ahead of him trying to do something fancy with said shoulder

 

[BostonDevil]

Would the Wild be willing to send Fleury here?

I know he's not good but I'd see if they'd be willing to take Vitek and something just to have him as an actual goalie coach for Akira the rest of the season.

He was at least an NHL goalie at one point. Something we really don't have.

Teams are concentrating on taking Hughes away. The big complaint has been him forcing things that aren’t there. You can’t have it both ways. Bratt has to step up since they’ve got 2 guys watching Jack.

In a game where we’ve scored only once there no reason to blame Vanicek. It may still happen but so far tonight he’s not the problem.

 

[Killing Joke]

This is such bad positioning from vitek.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Vanecek made 2 A+ stops on Detroit and has 1 goal for him on the board, I swear some of you just have parrot syndrome just blaming the goalie whenever something bad happens. Blame the shit offense for once I beg

He’s literally a horrible goalie who’s bad positioning has cost them two goals.

Yes, Nemec leaving Pat Kane WIDE OPEN is his fault and them not being able to notice Ghostisbehere sneak down for A+ shot is the goalie's fault, you got this all figured up. Don't blame the powerplay that had 3 chances and missed the net like 6 times or our superstar who looks like he hasn't given a slightest f*** in a week

Vanecek is ass but you guys are joking if you put it on him tonight

 

[Oneiro]

These weak trap beats feel extra humiliating when we’re suffering from hockey ED.

Problem is the offense will show up and he'll give up 4+ because that's just the way this season has gone lol

 

[Devils731]

Devils need to skate next period and take advantage of Detroit playing a long game yesterday.

Devils have looked casual tonight so I’m hoping for some intensity here.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Then sure it's his fault. Right now, you're out to lunch or have a severe Vanecek tick if you blame him for this game.

 

[Devils731]

At least losing is a little more fun when the Devils score. Not scoring and losing doesn’t even have moments to celebrate.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Time for Ruff to go.

 

[Camille the Eel]

No one likes losing for sure and people get bitter. I hope we can throw a good 3d period out there and win this one.
