[The 29th Pick]

thanks

 

[Patrik26]

Tight schedule but only 7 back to backs. Could've been worse.

Very cool. Let's get it on!!

 

[NJDevs26]

That four game in six day series with the Rangers in April could be lit but also could wind up being a big nothingburger if both teams are out of it by then.

As it stands now, sure. But with inevitable postponements everything's in pencil only. The NBA has to cancel a game on the second night of the season for goodness sakes.

 

[Satans Hockey]

That 4 game series vs the Rangers is insane as it is but it will really be insane if both teams are in the playoff hunt still by then. Thats a huge swing of points if a team can go 3-1 or sweep that 4 game series.

This schedule is setting up the season to reduce the possibility of teams spreading covid to one another and all these back to back games definitely help with that. If someone tests positive on one of those teams it will be easier to isolate those teams if they have to.

 

[Auto Pilot]

Season could very well be over just 16 games in lol. Thanks NHL

are you referring to this game? if so, i cant agree with postponement due to the fact the rockets dont have the required 8 players to play……should have to forfeit if you cant field the required amount.

might get some of these players and teams to take this shit more seriously

So just like last season? Lol On the bright side if we stink the season will be over quicker lol

I agree these leagues should clamp down more as well, but we just saw with this Ravens nonsense and postponing one game four different times that these leagues are taking great pains to avoid the nuclear forefit option. Especially if (like with the NFL) both teams' players lose paychecks if a game is canceled.

Thing is with the NBA it's also a lot easier to get snagged on the number requirement with the smaller number of players overall.

We’re gonna get washed <3

reminds me of lou and his short benches when the cap was implemented…still iced a team though

they should reduce it to 5 from 8 required to play …..if you cant a least put a starting lineup out there you are shit out of luck


sure, harden tested negative but he just didnt feel like following the rules…i have no sympathy for apathy

 

[Darkauron]

We’re gonna get washed <3

I hope the devils get a shower. Cleanliness is very important

 

[Dialamo]

So if you need roughly 94 points to make the playoffs in an 82 game schedule, we need roughly 64 points in this 56 game season. Feasible?

 

[NjdevilfanJim]

Thanks...Four games against Rangers will fuel the hatred that's for sure.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

what are you even talking about

why do you follow this team? Serious question.

 

[NJDevs26]

He's getting up in arms over one of Corey's Tweets



As if we didn't know our whole schedule is pretty much brutal anyway lol

 

[Goptor]

3/25 to 4/4 is a good time to plan a spring break vacation where you have to miss all the hockey games.

 

[Camille the Eel]

just exciting to see this - it makes it more real that this is going to happen - can’t get here fast enough

Can't say I'm too confident of that, especially with how brutal the division is likely to be, but hey: we'll likely have much improved goaltending, and the fun part of a young team is that kids have a chance of improving with time and experience while older teams sometimes fall back thanks to Father Time hitting their rosters, so maybe a few key guys all take major steps forward this year at the same time?

There are definitely some brutal stretches in here, but if the Devils at least come out of this season looking like a legitimately tough team to play against I'll take that as a strong sign about the team's near future. Let's find out.

 

[guitarguyvic]

This Swiss cheese defense is gonna get absolutely destroyed in that division.

There’s like one team that has any kind of decent chance of being worse than us, the Sabres, and even that I’m not at all confident in.

I was told the days of this team competing for last place were over. Yeah right, I’ll believe it when I see it. It seems pretty clear to me that the only realistic chance of that is if Blackwood and Hughes become stars in this league overnight.

 

[MartyOwns]

I was told the days of this team competing for last place were over.

who told you that?

 

[guitarguyvic]

who told you that?

It won't be complete because you will have a weird goalpost shifty defintion of what it means to have a complete rebuild, and probably some comparisons to when the NHL was a 21 or 26 team league to boot. But unless there's some catastrophic injuries, the days of competing for last overall should be long over.
