GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (50-21-8, 108 Points, 2nd in Metro) @ Boston Bruins (61-12-5, 127 Points, 1st in Atlantic), 8 PM, ABC/ESPN+

[PKs Broken Stick]

Haula has been taking maintenance days so I think he is just rotated out foe rest.

ok, and why are they taking him out for this game...f***ing coward of a move by Ruff.

 

[Unknown Caller]

Or give him nothing. Schedule is loose enough to not have to play Blackwood again and he should not be the playoff backup.

You can’t play Vanecek every single night and run him into the ground going into the playoffs. This isn’t 2000. Just manage the schedule appropriately.

 

[Blender]

Hopefully Driftwood has enough pucks accidentally hit him that we can outscore Boston.

 

[Ripshot 43]

Is it weird that I assumed Blackwood would be starting this game?

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

Just put in Luke, why not?

 

[Cheddabombs]

You'll all be sorry for doubting the Big Mac. 3-0 Devils win incoming!!

 

[Lou is God]

I will say this in Mac's defense - he probably had the best game of his career in Boston:

New Jersey Devils vs. Boston Bruins Box Score: March 28, 2021 | Hockey-Reference.com

But that's all I got.

Just means he’s probably due for regression.

Mac's robust .895 save percentage and 3.10 GAA against Ullmark's .937 and 1.90

 

[New Jersey]

50 wins.

Playing only one of two teams ahead of us in points in the league on Easter weekend for f***ing *seeding* and nothing else.

No matter what, the 2022-23 New Jersey Devils made us dream and believe again.

This is a Stanley Cup franchise.

I really hope so, but I think I will be asking Lindy this question instead:

 

[FinnishDevil]

You already know that its either gonna be like a 42 save shutout win or getting blown out of the building for Blackwood.

We all know what its gonna be.

I was watching a Finnish Liiga playoff game today where the backup of my team Ilves, Malék looked just like Blackwood. Just playing the position and being clueless with puck tracking.

That's Blackwood's level. A backup in the Finnish league.

Blackwood wouldnt even ace it in AHL. He is done.

All his selection tells us is that Devils management are indiffrent for the #1 division and home ice advantage.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Ruff planned it this way because of his career stats against Boston and that's just so insanely stupid.

We played the worst team in the league on Thursday and a damn traffic cone would have got the W. Play him then. Not against the best team in the league

 

[Bcap88]

This is going to be a perfect game for timo

 

[I Hate Tie DOMI]

Devils need to score 4 against Ullmark since we know Blackwood is letting in at least 3. Seems less than ideal.

 

[Bcap88]

I will also give it 40 seconds before Meier, boqvist and sharangovich are split up lol

 

[NjDevsRR]

 

[Saugus]

Wait seriously it’s Badwood tonight? What the f***?

 

[New Jersey]

“sweet caroline…

BOSTON SUCKS.”

casual reminder, f*** the Sox too.

 

[NjDevsRR]

NO STRAW!?

 

[Emperoreddy]

This is going to be a Bruins circlejerk. Already miss Bill and Dano

 

[Saugus]

The view from my seats

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Lindy wants the Rags over Isles/Panthers lol
