GDT: The Amazing Schneiderman Returns! ECQF Game 3 - Lightning @ Devils, 7:30 PM, MSG+

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

Anyone know the song they play when we’re headed on the powerplay?

 

[StvBroDan]

How did you even know about that? I still have no idea what you're talking about, it would have been nice if they said anything 'at all'.

They were saying something about be a part of the show and it had something to do with cell phones. It was not very clear and it was loud.

 

[Comparison Ford]

I think you just nailed his strategy in the defensive zone

This post is severely underrated. Very happy @Aethon is on board.

 

[Whaddagoal]

What the...

Either that's a close family relation or we have a nut-ball loose in the arena.

Yes!! I remember seeing that for a split second on the broadcast. Forgot to post about it here, haha!

Yeah too bad I didn't check Twitter as much as I might have some other days (and even if I had I might have wound up missing it anyway). Usually they have stuff in the gameday e-mail you can find elsewhere so it's a quick delete. I suspect it's that way for a lot of people.

Credit to Zajac, he's stepped up. Played a very nice game 1 and now game 3. Him and Noesen were great tonight.

 

[Japam]

Got home 10 mins ago and there's no way I'm falling asleep anytime soon. So amped.

 

[Oneiro]

Got back from the game. For starters, awesome crowd and atmosphere. When Hallsy scored that goal, they were so ready. And the KILL chant is epic. Was nice to see Lovejoy get that empty netter. Definitely heard a bunch of guys giving him shit throughout the night. And I'm always proud to wear my Zajac jersey but was especially proud to wear it tonight.

Good win. Let's do it fifteen more times.

 

[StvBroDan]

That was one of the best nights we have had at then Rock in a while. Place was loud from the start of the night. Only time it got quiet was when they scored a goal just after we went back. My pick was spot on until we started putting in empty net goals that we have not hit all year. LGD!!!

 

[Camille the Eel]

Johansson looked good in his first game in several months. Very surprised at how little rust he showed. It's big getting him back. He's steady, makes the right play, he really helps with puck possession, where we are vulnerable with Tampa. When they get up on us, it's often a result of stretches where they hold the puck on us and we can't seem to get it back or settle it down.

Hynes pushed the right buttons tonight with Cory, Stafford, and Johannson. With getting the Zajac line on Point.

I wish we'd been better, after Butcher's 5 on 3 power play goal, on the remainder of the 5 on 4. We squandered an opportunity to go ahead right there. Giving up 2 goals on 4 power plays, and going 1 for 7 on ours, is going to be fatal most nights. We have to be better on the PK and the Power play if we expect to win this series. I think we can be much better on both.

I was ripping LJ apart

Stafford was useless. And Tampa's powerplay TORE the Devils apart without Gibbons and Grabner out on the PK.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Fantastic to have Johanssons zone entries back, super helpful.

Watching the game again right now. lol

 

[Whaddagoal]

This is a great interview. What a teammate, what a player.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Gibbons definitely should rotate back in. PK still needs help.

if we didnt have that open area up top end ice it would be much louder.....

then again a ranger fan designed the place....

smh

Yeah. Unless being invisible and not doing jacks--- all game long is considered "pushing the the right buttons" as far as Hynes goes when he decided to put Stafford out there, I don't think that is a decision that should be trumpeted.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Huge comeback win.
Hall showed the playoffs audience that he's the MVP.

Kudos to Cory though I'm concerned that he tweaked an existing injury.

Dirty spear by Hedman

TBL tried to goon it up late and we didn't let them gain an edge.
Good by Boyle having a word with Sergachev.

Outstanding home ice environment and crowd.

Sea of red aside from those 5 empty front row seats behind the goal we defend twice (can that corporation give them away next game? )

 

[Bleedred]

Anyone know the song they play when we’re headed on the powerplay?

Isn’t it the intro to the Dragnet theme? Or another one they play after that? I can’t even recall what it is, but it sounds like some kind of top-40 club hit or something.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Christ like

smh

We were down below in a Suite but for a change they actually were loud. It sounded like thunder coming down from the top. It was great

 

[NJDevs26]

Gibbons definitely should rotate back in. PK still needs help.

He might draw back in for Wood at this rate, if Wood really played less than 4:30.

 

[Whaddagoal]

Yeah but our ES play was much better with Mojo and Stafford in the lineup.

Stafford was fine tonight.

People should be more pissed at Vatanen having an off game (and Palms). I'm a huge Vat's fan, but he is now looking legit tired. Pucks (not just by him) were in players skates behind for a lot of passes tonight. Team was able to recover the transition, but it could have gone badly if the bounce went the other way a few times.

Palms is making a lot of strange decisions when he tries to force a rush over the blueline. He needs to calm down the bulldog over the blueline move, because he keeps running into about 2 forecheckers and the puck goes the other way. This team was fortunate a little bit tonight the fast breaks got contained by the time most of them reached inside our blueline.

Don't think the coach should make any lineup changes unless there is a reason to (health/injury, etc.)...... for Game 4.

 

[Emperoreddy]

That line was pretty ineffective. No idea what Wood did though unless Hynes simply felt the other lines were looking better and shortened the bench.
