That DAL hat that Wyatt is wearing is pretty sick, not gonna lie.

Looks like something he picked up at Señor Frogs in Nassau Bahamas

It’s definitely an ownership/management thing. I don’t remember it being this much of an East German presser feel back in the Lou days (though except for the last two years they were good so it wasn’t needed). But even the Isles broadcasts don’t give that vibe from the few times I catch it (Butch is a Homer, but more in the Chico vein of homerism than try to pull the wool over your face).

Bryce definitely calls a spade a spade a lot, he's just not a dick about it.

we need the marian hossa flesh eating bacteria

I think that's I step in the wrong direction. I think.

Kinda funny seeing people just now freak out and say they are playing awful this game....when they've mostly looked like this since Christmas.

Nah that's dooming man!

But this looks different because as Keefe said Hughes has the puck on his stick so much for us, carries it and makes zone entries - without him we look quite lost as to what the game plan even is.

Dougie and the Devils trying to pull the ol' Vegas LTIR move.

Yea because Jack's 8 million and sieg's contract dont allow for that lol.

 

[HughesCorporation]

ah yes, the hossa scam

became allergic to hockey after 30 years

 

[njdevils1982]

im still wondering what kind of positioning that was on the dallas goal

 

[Andre Palot]

Chico on shrooms tonight apparently

“Jack needs a big winger” - Chico on the LaChance trade

That's just Chico preparing for the experience of Devils hockey.

Yuck. Evidently I'm very out of touch with today's hat game. Between that hat and the stupid boat captain like ones with the rope across the top everyone has now....I don't get it.

Missed most of the first period and don’t feel like scrolling. Nemec is hurt?

Tom can't survive this season.

He's a nonfactor and even if injured it would be irrelevant. Dougie is hurt though.

at least there was no sticker on the brim

 

[JimEIV]

I think the difference is with Jack in the lineup, no matter how bad they were playing, there was still hope... hope a little extra depth at the deadline could shake things up and things could start clicking....

Without Jack in the lineup the holes look insurmountable.

I was WRONG to have posted this morning that I didn't expect Fitz to make any moves for the playoffs if Jack is out. I meant he had a plan for trades but didn't plan on replacing Jack.
He has to see if he can get a rental to replace Jack if he cant play. Plus we need more offense. Can he do this, does he have the money, the players for a trade and are there any teams that want to trade with the Devils. A tall order, it will be tough, maybe impossible buI I know he is trying.

I have been reading some of these posts from Devils fans on this forum.

Please do not give up on our Devils

I mean, I wouldn't wear it but it looked cool on him! OK I'll stop....

Seems to me like no one wants to be on the ice for another shutout embarrassment

Thought I heard the awful announcers say Nemec was hurt. I did see Hamilton come off the ice in pain…as if we can lose one of our few sources of offense. I may watch the rest of this game on mute.

Y'all are gonna regret this doom and gloom for this game when we win 3-2 (with Dallas scoring all 5 goals and just accidentally putting 3 into their own net)

Eh, I mean it's just a different type of lost. With Jack, it's one guy dominating the puck while most of the guys aimlessly float around like traffic cones on ice.

Zone entries aren't even in the top 10 of issues with this team with or without Jack. Bratt, Timo, and Nico are all good on entries. Bigger issue is this team is incapable of dumping/retrieving the puck or cycling effectively.

Like the other GMs don't think Jack is done for the season lol
