Post-Game Talk: Devils beat Leafs 6-3: I LIKE WHAT YOU GOT. GOOD JOB.

[britdevil]

Excellent news to wake up to.

 

[Emperoreddy]

was Lou at the game?
I don't recall him on the msg feed at all.

Tough decision when Stafford is ready to play.

I would imagine he was but yeah he wasn't on camera.

Hayes is the guy I sit for Stafford, and that isn't really a knock on him, he is just the weakest link at RW right now. I wouldn't sit Woods or Gibbons right now. Wood has the ability to quickly play his way to the press box so it is good to have other options.

You could also sit Noesen, but I wouldn't.

Well worth watching if you DVR'd it. It was the hockey equivalent of Usain Bolt versus Justin Gatlin.

 

[njdevils1982]

the satisfaction of seeing a live win vs the leafs

Glad you went to the game. I remember you attending another one there that we won. Weren't you also at our game in Calgary, where we blew the 2 goal lead with the Flames goalie pulled?

Definitely st least peep the highlights. Are speed is just amazing.

 

[Bcap88]

I can only imagine Lou in the press box wondering "what how are they so fast"

Def keep in all of the 4th liners.

Wood brings that speed and fearlessness but he has to improve in the D zone a lot.

It's a nice problem to have, depth and options. More so when Boyle and Trav are ready to go.

I have no clue what to do with this team right now if we are 100% healthy. I'm assuming that will work itself out by then with either an injury or someone playing poorly.

Right now it is hard to justify sitting anyone. Zajac is a third line checking forward right now. That is crazy to me.

Yes. They showed him sitting with a unhappy face along with....umm.....what was that guy's name again?

 

[glenwo2]

They actually showed him during the broadcast with Shannahan in the owner's/GM's box or whatever they call it...with their hands under the chins just watching the Devils dismantle the Laffs.

Keep going, I'm almost there.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Barry Melrose actually talked us up on ESPN saying we are legit. He also brutally mispronounced Nico's name and said Bratt is 26 years old, but hey take the compliment.

 

[Its a Trap]

I go to sleep happy.

Barry is such a clown(and I mean that in a bad way).

Still he, like many in the pundit world, are shocked and impressed by our speed.

Sounds about right for someone who had 2x the PIM than he had games played.

[Ripshot 43]

Please tell me that someone has made a gif of when we scored the 5 v 3 goal and the camera goes to Hynes and the bench and Hynes takes a big swig of his water bottle.

Reminded me of one of our classic gifs of the fan in the crowd doing the same thing.

I missed that. Act like you been there before i guess lol

 

[Bleedred]

Does anyone know why the hell Zacha got a delay of game penalty before the 3 on 5 goal? I thought it was a bench minor to Hynes for abuse of officials, over the first penalty that was called.

Hynes didn't seem to be too mad about the original penalty, so I was confused why he'd be given a penalty for that. I don't know what Zacha did.

They never explained it on the broadcast. I'm guessing he covered the puck up outside the crease.

 

[MadDevil]

16 goals in 3 games? That would have been an entire months worth of goals last year.

 

[Bleedred]

Yeah, that makes sense. I didn't really see anything, and I don't think there was a faceoff, leading to one of those faceoff violations.

16 goals in 3 games? That would have been an entire months worth of goals last year.

If we can be close to league average in goals for, I think we have a more than decent chance at a wild card spot.

The defense might still be a little shaky, but the Schneider we've gotten so far is like signing or trading for a #1 defenseman this offseason. He's looking like he did with the exception of last year, and has been just about unbeatable at even strength.

Have we ever scored 16 goals over three consecutive games since Cory has been here? I'm gonna say it's a pretty safe bet that we haven't.
