GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (33-23-6, 72 Pts) @ Dallas Stars (39-19-2, 80 Pts), 8 PM, ESPN+/Hulu

[R8Devs]

I don’t f***ing care. The defensemen (#8) needs to have the f***ing awareness to to gain the red line first.

This happens too often. It’s hockey 101. It’s out of the hands of the other team doing something like that.

two absolute ridiculous plays by him at the end of the 2nd and 3rd period. bad luck for sure (and probably a bad call too on the icing) but just don't take the risk. They stopped playing Nemec when he was playing fine for safety at the end of the game and the two 'safe' defenseman both had horrible plays. Dillon got bailed by Markstrom getting his stick out to deflect the pass and Kovacevic failing to gain the line.

Haula loses 47% of his faceoffs

I jiat looked up his stats, HOW IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW THIS BUM HAULA IS ON A 27 GAME POINT DROUGHT !!!

 

[Forge]

Lol damn, man

 

[Camille the Eel]

Markstrom definitely showed the rust tonight.

And it’s the 3d time this year this has happened to him. Detroit (Kane) early on - shot right through him; against San Jose was it ? Shot off his glove and in. And tonight. All games we coughed up in the final seconds.

Magnificent comeback alas to end this way.

Pretty good game by Nemec tonight.

That one broke me. A sabbatical is needed

Absolute clown show network.

This team does this shit way too much. They're lazy, brain dead, and lost out there.

If Keefe had half a brain he would've parted ways with McGill, Taylor, and Rogalski, but he retained them for some odd reason.

 

[Triumph]

Thought Keefe was getting ready to challenge for GI there. Why not. They already f***ed the call and cost us a goal.

Goalie interference isn't challengeable within 1 minute

Lol damn, man

Harley pretended to try for that puck, normally htat's enough to wave off icing in that spot but not there for some reason.

 

[Devs3cups]

I mean what can you say? Nico and Timo stepped up, and I saw a spark of something there until that stupid “icing” that really wasn’t. Maybe it’s still enough to inspire good things over the next 19 games, but then again these are the kinds of games that bad teams find ways to lose.

I’m literally just SMH at this point. Don’t know what else to say.

Literally it.

Smh. That’s it. Not even mad. Just numb.

 

[Shakir ONeal]

Keefe should blast the refs postgame

 

[Dialamo]

DD was a prophet who left our boards too soon.

 

[NJDevs26]

This is what happens when you wait for your backs to be against the wall and the pressure to be off before you compete at 100%

You can’t challenge in the final minute. It has to be reviewed by the league.

 

[Whaddagoal]

I had no problem accepting losing this game after getting a point in OT.

Losing with the dumbest dickhead plays you can do, shows the loser shit of those guys on the ice. After the captain line and a few others played a great game, the Haula line and others give it in

 

[Better Call Sal]

Lol damn, man

I'd say the same thing if I were in his shoes, but he can still go kick rocks.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Yeah, honestly I’m gonna throttle way back after that. Unless the team shows any kind of actual life in the W/L column, it’s just irritating at this point.

 

[Eggtimers]

Joke that Kovy didn’t gain the redline or circle back . Joke that it was called icing. Haula is a joke too. He is toast and completely and utterly useless. He does NOTHING of use. Doesn’t score , pointless for months, can’t win face offs , isn’t hard to play against , isn’t a shut down defensive guy . He is a useless plug . Completely garbage and I’m sick of the bum

 

[Captain3rdLine]

Ya Kovacevic’s shine has worn off a lot. Still definitely a solid 3rd pairing guy but not somebody who be playing and relied on nearly as much as we have.

 

[Satans Hockey]

DD was a prophet who left our boards too soon.

Nah f*** that, he was sacrificed to get that game 7 win. Absolutely worth it.

 

[longislanddevil]

That is NOT icing!!! The replay even showed that Harley whiffed on the puck and we all know he wasn’t trying to touch it. Disgusting and brain dead play by Kovacevic but still, that’s not icing. Night in and night out we see rancid officiating. It’s a joke.

I just knew when it was called icing that we were going to somehow lose in regulation.

Haula is a useless POS and as another poster said, wish we could dump off in Mexico and leave him there. This clown has been killing us all year and of course he can’t mane himself even remotely useful by winning a critical faceoff. I WANT THIS JOKER OFF OUR TEAM!! AND TAKE PALAT WITH YOU!!!

I can’t right now….I just can’t. This team is getting me so worked up that I’m literally feeling sick.

The signs were there from the start. Unfortunate, but this is a lost season it seems. Regroup, fix the holes, come back stronger next year.

 

[Dialamo]

I agree with you about Doggo but I wasn't talking about him.

Ya Kovacevic’s shine has worn off a lot. Still definitely a solid 3rd pairing guy but not somebody who be playing and relied on nearly as much as we have.

Yep oh well. Let some sucker team like Pittsburgh give him 5x5

Just shows how good Siegs actually is, as if we needed any more proof lol.

 

[guitarguyvic]

Smh. That’s it. Not even mad. Just numb.

Can’t even say I’m numb. I wish. I’m moving from anger to depression.

This franchise has been lost in the forest post-Lou.

 

[Alex NJD]

Working on a longer post for the team discussion thread but Haula/Lazar have been so awful as 3C 4C I'm shocked it's not lower
