Post-Game Talk: San Jose Sharks vs New Jersey Devils: Moore Risky Business

[Devils Dominion]

Hope they have some gas left in the tank tonight.

We can he sure that the former lawyer who will be perched on the opposing bench will have his team ready to play.

We have yet to defeat Pete since he's been over there.

In the long run, they'll benefit from this week off in my eyes. Get a win tonight and go into the break 7-1 with some much needed rest? Sounds fantastic.

We did beat them once in SJ two years ago.

Pete was their coach?

So who comes in for Prout tonight?

I hope it's Mueller, but because the Sharks are a veteran team, my money's on Lovejoy.

I hope Mueller too so he gets a chance to help beat his former team.

I would love for it to Mirco and for him to stick it to his old team.

What a bizarre time of year to have a week off. Although there are fears of losing momentum, I could see it being a good chance to get some long practices in to tighten up the D and PK. Cory gets some time to heal up, too.

It's going to be brutal on this board, though. No way around it.

So pumped that we have another game tonight.

Need to cut down on penalties. They have only given up twelve 5 on 5 goals through 7 games. Simply cutting down on that will make this team much better. They would have the best goal differential just by cutting their penalties in half. The biggest issue with the PK has been positioning and allowing people to get down low between the dots. But regardless, just need to stay out of the sin bin.

Put Mueller in the line up. Prout is awful

 

[Blackjack]

5-3 Devils

Stafford, Palmieri, Wood, Bratt, and Johansson

Couture, Labanc, and Hertl

I like how this guy thinks. I'll say Butcher gets his first goal though. Why not.

If they DON'T put in Mueller tonight you know he's in the doghouse.

Mueller hat trick incoming

 

[mtnet]

Mueller?

Would be impressive to see a big game from Bratt and PZ on the rested third line that should have extra jump tonight. Hopefully they get some favorable matchups at home against the aging Sharks lineup.

They were very close to breaking through a few times last night. Zacha hit pipe twice.

 

[BenedictGomez]

M1 Garand sighting

 

[britdevil]

Zacha has hit the posts how many times?

Seems like every game.

 

[Zippy316]

I'm only a little more than halfway through the game so far -- so I saw all four goals.

Why are people specifically harping on Prout. He doesn't seem like he's been bad. I'd rather see Mueller as well, but seems like Prout has done his job.

Last time they played was Tuesday so they'll no doubt be well rested

 

[Emperoreddy]

Won’t know the lineup until near 5 tonight as there is no morning skate.

Penalties and near penalties.
