Team needs to force management to be buyers.
Santini had a phenomenal performance tonight. He only started 11% of his shifts at 5v5 in the offensive zone, yet the Devils controlled over 60% of the shot attempts when he was on the ice, highest score on the whole team. Just wow.
He really has, not so much around the opposing goal mouth, but every where else he looks like a really good player. Not pretty good, really good.man josefson has been good when healthy this year. finally.
He will still be hated.
Before the game I was going to quote this and say "watch the Devils win 5-1 just because". But I decided against it.
He's underrated offensively.
When I say that, I don't think he's gonna put up a lot of points, but he may put up more points than we might think.
I just mean that he can move the puck and make some place. He's not a ''Clear the crease, grenade handler, glue trap'' D-man like you might associate with the term ''Defensive defenseman''.
I thought Severson had a good bounce back game.
That Columbus scorer is high! They robbed Severson of a primary assist and gave it to Santini
JJs been looking like a solid 3C out there, maybe he's found his role?
JJ has played 265 games in the league almost. I doubt very highly that he's turned a corner.
But hopefully his hot streak lasts a little bit longer.
I'm not married to JJ, he has to get results in order to stay here. If he doesn't keep it up you can his ass. I'm sick of giving this guy a leash because he has a decent stretch. He needs to prove he's turned the corner as a player for good by staying healthy all season and continuing to play at this level.
The line he's on has looked good but I agree, I don't think we are going to see this great revelation in Josefson's career.
