GDT: Spidey Says, "Woke Up This Morning, Got Myself a Win" Devils @ Kings, 4 PM, MSG+

[bobilly45]

I feel like the MSG people on our broadcast are on our side. Cangy definitely is and I don't even think I need to speak for Dano on that.

I think Cangy and Dano are Devils employees and not MSG employees though? Or maybe not? There's always been a weird area with the commentary crew and who they're employed by.

They're msg employees, get checks from msg. Dano obvs is a devil and will never not show support for us. Cangy I think is just being a true pro, and hiding any ranger fandom.

They still have 3 games in hand.

Two games in hand after today. They're at 69 and we're at 71. At a 5 point difference that's the difference between controlling your own destiny and not.

 

[JimEIV]

Wow. Hynes is saying too much imo

 

[DerekDevils30]

Observation from the other side, Doughty had an atrocious game. Like insanely awful.

The play he made on the Wood goal was so dumb. Stopped up along the boards and threw it back towards the point which sprung Wood and Stafford

King Kong Keith Kinkaid

King killer Keith Kincaid (3-0 lifetime, 2 SO!)

i dunno tbh. i like cangy but i wonder sometimes.

at the same time i hated matt loughlin back in the day and now i love the guy.

cangy just needs some time to grow on the fans. hes a good guy and has to put up with dano night in and night out. not an easy task. when it comes down to it im happy we have cangy. he has good calls and thats all that matters.

I was and still remain a fan of wedge... he needs alot of work, but is able to make fantastic saves using the hybrid style... well see what happens, but I think he'll be back on a team soon

The funny thing is I can admit that I was a Wedge fan and wouldn’t have minded seeing him get a longer shot at backup.

But I think the proof is in the pudding here. One guy has shown the ability to step up when it matters.

I don't think Wedge is at all good at the NHL level.

And even when I was blasting Kinkaid a month and more back, I never flip flopped or even once questioned if Wedgewood was better than Kinkaid. The only time he was better than Kinkaid was for a random 4 game stretch 2 years ago when he was called up and for a month or so this season.

I feel super strongly that Wedgewood will never be a full time NHL roster goalie.

Sounds like hynes is saying ride kk untill a bad game, then let cory play and hope he has a good game

 

[JimEIV]

King killer Keith Kincaid (3-0 lifetime, 2 SO!)

Love not Like.

 

[NJDevils17]

Wow. Hynes is saying too much imo

He gets like that when we win games, I’ve noticed that a few times

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Is it just me or is Nico already a significant difference maker? To the tune of him possibly driving the Hall-Palmieri/Bratt line and now the Grabner-Gibbons line stepping up.

Regardless, the kid is a pleasure to watch.

WHAT THE HELL WAS KEITH WEARING??

 

[StvBroDan]

Wow, she's fugly...way past her prime

Fugly is perfect. I dont know if she ever had a prime in announcing or looks.

Are you sure he's a Rangers fan? I thought he was an Islanders fan? Maybe I only think that because he might have said his first game he ever saw was at the Coliseum?

I'll give you that, that you never wavered on your opinion of either goalie.

 

[HenriquesJawLine]

Zajac put Kopitar in his back pocket and the Grabner-Hischier-Gibbons line was awesome. Good moves by Hynes, things were going well but every opponent is different.

I thought ej from nhl was an isles fan, so was al trautwig

 

[NJDevs26]

What was it that Hynes said that was so contreversial? I'm fighting a cold and zoned out a bit when he was rambling on about how they were riding Cory early then after he got hurt they had to ride Keith and he did well then struggled then did well again.

 

[MadDevil]

He didn't say anything controversial. People are just hearing what they want to hear.

 

[glenwo2]

Do we have to tweet you to do a better job keeping track of the remaining NHL schedule?

Might as well. It worked for Kinky.

 

[AveryQuietMan]

anyone have inside info on maroon?

 

[Nubmer6]

Might as well. It worked for Kinky.

Actually, didn't it work for the whole team?

Stunner on here

Kinkaid is 0-3, with a 4.97 GAA, and .821 Save % against the Ducks.

They're the one team on this trip that I feel like we've always lost to on the road over the last half a dozen years or more.

We actually did beat them in OT in 2013, but we definitely have won a lot more in San Jose and LA recently than there. We have beaten the Ducks the last two times we played them at home.

I feel like we've won every game in LA since the SCF in 2012, other than last year, when we were losing to everybody.
