Isles were due and of course we are the team that’s so bad we broke their losing streak. Other teams see an easy win when the Devils are on their schedule.

Green and Parise both former Devils score against the Devils.

New goalie playing his first game in the NHL. It wasn't all him.

Next up: Flyers

A change has to happen. Whatever the front office’s plan for the team was…it isn’t working.

And if you don't then what? If he comes up and they still suck you send him back to Utica? So we destroy what they've got going on down there to try and salvage this team?
Then we can fire him too and move on to our 5th coach in 4 years.

Fitzgerald is probably willing to tank this year too. This team isn't good. If he fires Ruff and the next coach sucks then it becomes his ass on the hot seat next.

And that’s with us playing a very high defensive style to not give up goals and try to squeak out wins lol.
F it. Just go out and try to score now. Who cares the score. Let them play their game
Their “high” defensive style is a f***ing joke. It aint defense. It’s f***ing chaos

I’ve never seen uglier display of sloppy puck management and turnovers in almost 30 years of watching devils hockey. An absolutely embarrassing display. I’m actually disgusted. The last time I felt that way was 2010 with Johnny Mac behind the bench. At least at that time it was obvious that the coach was the problem and the team would rebound once he was gone. This time?…

I’m a fairly patient person and try to find the silver linings in things. But this type of play is not one that is going to warrant success. It seems like they are enforcing the offense coming from the perimeter or in transition. There’s not enough focus, whether by the staff or the players, on following shots and second chances. Dominic Moore even said last night that more often than not, those are your best opportunities to score. And we very rarely come up with several of those opportunities.

This is some of the more frustrating hockey I can recall watching because they should not be this bad.

There were problems in Smith's game last year but this decline is still kind of shocking.
