GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (5-3-1) @ Detroit Red Wings (3-3-0), 7 PM, MSGSN

[TheUnseenHand]

We consistently get out battled on offensive rebounds.

 

[Dialamo]

We are gonna need a NicoTrick to save us.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

They've been good tonight

Good not great.

Palat man....

 

[AfroThunder396]

Outshooting them 31-16 and every time they have the puck I think we're about to lose

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

god, I thought that last shot was gunna be a goal

 

[njdevils1982]

nico has taken 22 out of the 34 draws so far (11-11)

 

[Emperoreddy]

Good to end that period with control, needed that after a few shaky minutes earlier and our end of period play lately.

Now go get the next two goals and bring home a win

 

[devilsblood]

Just win the 3rd and all is forgiven.

Partly PTSD partly that other teams have guys that can regularly beat goalies clean with shots and we really don't.

 

[Devs3cups]

Good not great.

Palat man....

74% xGF% all strength, 64% 5v5. Very, very good. I'd go great.

They need to clean up a few breakdowns but they've controlled play dramatically tonight.

 

[Comparison Ford]

Kovy not having the best game today.

 

[JK3]

Meh, we're outshooting them but still feels like a crapshoot to me.

 

[Comparison Ford]

feels like Palat having his best game of the year tonight (still just fairly average/above average)

I do think the breakdowns are probably undervalued in the numbers which make them look rosier. We've certainly controlled the puck for most of the night but the breakdowns have been really bad when they've happened. It's similar in a way to last year.

The hockey gods want Nemec in.

 

[Dylan9z9]

No push back for the blatant elbow to Cotters face ... this can't continue

Sure. I still think they're playing a solid, solid hockey game overall. Hopefully they come out with the W cause overall I'm happy with their play tonight.

 

[njdevils1982]

we get it... jimmy gomez will do it all.... but can he make a chocolate devils basket?

He's been good. Thought he was good last game as well. He's going to be a cog on that line, not a driver, but he's playing his role.

Very similar feeling. It's nothing like the Buffalo games where they never really felt in doubt. This has all the earmarks of a really bad loss. They need to win this game, especially if they are going to continue to lose to good teams.

 

[NjDevsRR]

How we doing @Devs3cups

 

[Devs3cups]

No Nico slander will be tolerated from this day forward.

Palat 1 point this year so far?

 

[Maine Fan]

Doesn't it take 1 GF and the 0 GA but 2 GF is better.

 

[Deviled]

Issue is we are trying to win a game as well; cant be taking silly penalties for revenge

I agree Id like to see his shit pushed in lmao. So we take a number and, if it comes up this game, we give it a call
