2013 New Jersey Devils (Team News, Player Discussion - Part II)

[New Jersey Devils]

I'm watching the Red/White scrimmage and I think Hoeffel looks pretty good.

Hoping he turns into a real solid 3rd liner for us. Can skate pretty well, provides some nice screens, and check real well with his 6'2 frame.

You mean Sykie is taking a page out of this guy's playbook?

LOL good one!

Needs to find a bit more offense to be a third liner.

 

[Zippy316]

Andrei Zyuzin. I think.

For what it's worth, now almost an hour into the scrimmage, the guy who really stands out is Zajac. He looks terrific.

Shootout!

Brodeur stops Kovy.
Hedberg stops Matteau.
Brodeur stops Elias.
Pesonen scores! Five-hole on Hedberg.
Brodeur stops Zajac.
Hedberg stops Barch. Poke-check.

 

[Bleedred]

I'm gonna sit back, and watch it in a little. How'd Marty look? And Moose? Were the goals good ones or kinda soft? Just asking to see if they're rusty or not.

Zajac and Kovy looked really good together.

 

[Bleedred]

LOL why the hell did they even put Barch in a shootout?

Loved the way Teddy played. He set up Elias and Clarkson up with 4 great looks and seemed to be zipping back on the back check.

Thought Pesonen looked great but some are saying there were two #15's? If most of the good #15 is Pesonen and they based everything off this game, he will be on the big team.

Larsson and Tallinder played almost the whole game and looked good.

Zajac was amazing. Butler seemed OK. 4th line was as good as usual. Josefson seemed good at times, but seems lost when with a scoring chance.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Wish they could have done a knockout shootout like they've done in the past.

If jo could find a scoring touch he'd be an animal. Oft injured animal.

because they like to party

Yep. He is going to need to find some touch or he maybe pushed to the fourth line. But then he doesn't really have the grit to play fourth line.

The most I can ask of Josefson is a John Madden type. Maybe just a little less physical. He should be on the first PK unit. He's better than Henrique defensively (Not by miles though) and can win faceoffs. He's constantly been a threat on the PK in Albany, and has scored a couple shorties already.

He has sucked incredibly in shootouts, but in game breakaways he's been money on in the A.

Madden scored 15-20 goals 4-5+ times. Josefson may top out at ten in his best year.

 

[Bleedred]

I think he's capable of more than that. I think we can see him score 10-15. Why are you so high on Tedenby offensively, but not Josefson? Not saying you should be high on Josefson offensively by the way.

How can you know this?!?

If Larsson isn't in the starting lineup I'll be upset.

I am not really high on Tedenby offensively, but if you watch the scrimmage he set's up Elias 2-3 times and Clarkson once. He had a good scrimmage. I think he set up Clarky for the 1st goal too didn't he? JJ had a couple of open looks and looked scared. One was a wrist shot that went so slow I could read the writing on the puck even with bad definition stream.

JJ and Teds have the same problem where they don't score on open looks.

edit: I think Teds set up Clarky for the 1st goal too didn't he?
