GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (18-10-2, 38 Pts) vs. Toronto Maple Leafs (16-9-2, 34 Pts), 7 PM, ESPN+/Hulu

[Japam]

If none of the Devils start throwing elbows in the 3rd I will start throwing elbows at open hockey tomorrow night in honor of Jack Hughes.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Get that hit back, but be smart about it. The result is more important.

 

[HughesCorporation]

Jack started to bail at the last second, still a bullshit hit though.

thank goodness he saw it

 

[Clam Jensen]

They best go head hunting next period.

 

[Devilsfan118]

Hope they throw marner a nice elbow, be smart about it.

 

[HoliksGhost]

That was charging if nothing else.

That rarely gets called… I’ll never understand it

 

[Guadana]

6 shots by Toronto with AM on the ice. I believe its anti record for them.
People should chill. Devils playing play off style hockey and doing it great.

 

[Hisch13r]

lot of weird takes here

1.) Jack did have puck

2.) Teammates did stand up to the Leafs on the ice. What, you want them to take a penalty in a one goal game?

3.) Receipts will be paid at an appropriate time

Two periods down and the opposition only has six shots. Need to tighten up in 3rd. LGD

Thank god Matthews is having like his worst shooting night ever

yeah if he didn't lean with the hit slightly that would have been really really bad

 

[Emperoreddy]

That was charging if nothing else.

Do they call charging ever?

 

[DerekDevils30]

Didn't really like that period but they got the goal they deserved in the 1st.

Feel like the garbage PP really sours what’s otherwise been a very good game for the Devils. Too much given up with the man advantage

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Not one person stood up for Jack

Would’ve been quite stupid to do in a 1-0 game.

 

[Oneiro]

They don't seem to really like going low to high and creating something off the shot.

Pacioretty should be getting some extra special loving in the third. Kind of glad he fell off and never won shit, he's got that smarmy Quagmire face with Oscar from Sesame St. eyebrows, just even more trash.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Thank god Matthews is having like his worst shooting night ever

Thats the one thing they need to clear up lmao thank god indeed. Cant let 34 be that open that many times

And a better PP

 

[HoliksGhost]

That was charging if nothing else.

That rarely gets called… I’ll never understand in

 

[Forge]

Sorry, it wasn't Dillon. It was actually Dougie who was right there.

 

[Whaddagoal]

Do they call charging ever?

Nope, and Rempe last season was king of that. Never got called.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Toronto was inevitable going to string some shifts together and get chances.

PP is the only real negative for us through two. 5v5 and the PK are playing well

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

You can't take a penalty there because of this game script, the Devils know it. If they go up 2-3 in the third and see Pacioretty out there, he's going to get ram rodded by a hit but now wasn't the time.

 

[Satans Hockey]

Someone takes a bad penalty, Leafs tie and get momentum, that makes you happier?

After the weekend I had I don't give a shit, jump the f***er.

 

[Devs3cups]

Thankfully Jack looked OK

 

[Camille the Eel]

This is where you can’t afford to go out and run Pacioretti or Marner or whomever because the score of the game. But by god you want to bide your time and have your sociopath forward just destroy one of those people sooner or later. Take their number and make a note. Because you can’t let them do that to Jack with impunity.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Hamilton just asking Patches how he is doing after he crushed Jack lol

I mean I get that that isnt his game, but come on. Do somehing.

 

[Hisch13r]

Devils have 0.48 xGF on the PK. Leafs have 0.44 at 5v5.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Leafs 2 breakaways

Devils 1 breakaway and a crossbar

0 goals off these chances
