Devils 2017-18 team discussion (player news and notes) VIII - Postseason Edition

[Devils Dominion]

Well deserved Hallsy!!

 

[Cage Helmet]

Give him whatever the hell he wants! I want him here for 10 more years! He also keeps the wife from complaining about my hockey watching obsession!

 

[Devils Dominion]

i think her husband would be fine with the comment..... im sure he thought so too......

For real, now you're not allowed to compliment someone?
What has happened to society of late?

We traded Lars for the league MVP.

Oh the mountain of salt in Edmonton.

I was aware we'd never won a Hart but I could have sworn Marty was at least a finalist once, maybe he finished third. Is there a major award left the Devils haven't won? Norris - Nieds, Calder - Gomez, Vezina - Marty, Jack Adams - Lemaire in '94 I think

Marty was a finalist a few times. Top-3 finish is technically a finalist, I believe? He lost out to guys like Ovechkin, Crosby and I forgot who won it in 2003 and 2004? I think Iginla won it one of those times?

Marty finished third in 03, 04 and 07.

Funny enough, Marty actually finished third in 07 and Luongo finished second, but Marty still beat Luongo out for the Vezina that year.

Kind of weird, since you've said she doesn't like blonde/really lighter haired guys! I figure she'd be more into Palmieri or Boyle or a darker haired guy! Oh yeah, doesn't she like John Moore? Hope she can manage when he's gone next year!

[AveryQuietMan]

normally id say something like ' the league just gave it to him so the devs have to pay him more next contract'..... he really deserved it tho.

congrats hallsy!

 

[Bleedred]

This was a very fair trade. Both teams win. Larsson was a big part in us getting to the playoffs last year! Very fair trade! Hall was a problem here! Partied too much and infected the city with his cancer!

Yeah, she’ll be a little bummed that Moore is gone, but she’s smart enough to know that Moore isn’t amazing at hockey! So she’ll manage! She may jump ship if we take away her fave, Taylor Hart!

We have too many forwards! We needed someone to anchor our second defensive pairing.

You on drugggssssss?

Ah, yes! If we kept Larsson, we would have still made the playoffs this year because we would have prevented as many goals against as Hall provides goals for!

Drugs? No, I don't take drugs!

 

[Billdo]

Just so we are clear... The Oilers gave up the Hart winner and the Calder winner for Adam Larsson and an AHL defenseman. That's two GMs who made colossal mistakes.

You on drugggssssss?

Ever hear of Sarcasm, my friend?

 

[Billdo]

Guys... listen to this. It's like a mix of Fergie and Jesus

New Jersey Devils @NHLDevils

Ever hear of Sarcasm, my friend?

I didn’t see the obligatory and vintage Bleed “Todd McLellan is such a great coach, bruh!” So I wasn’t completely sure if Bleed was serious or not! That threw me off jusssstttt a little wee bit!

 

[Devil X]

Its small but congrats to Will. Some nice names to be included with.

 

[D3vilsH0ck3y]

First step in the perfect off season complete

Hall = Hart

JT how does playing with the league MVP on your wing sound like for the prime of your career?

 

[Davegarri]

I'm getting a lot of air time on these hall highlights on nhl network

 

[DEVILS130]

Huge accomplishment for Butcher to be on that team. It was an impressive year for rookies

Very good coach! We'd be very lucky to have him!

 

[Bleedred]

PLEASE tell me Keith Kinkaid got a measly Vezina vote from Ray Shero? That'd be pretty funny!

 

[Cult of Hynes]

McDavid's reaction really kills me.
