I think that was the biggest Devils win I’ve seen live. Yeah, Halak and the Nucks defense was terrible, but the offense just clicked. This is the sort of play I was hoping we’d see more of and more consistently this season.

Other notes:

• I got in for free thanks to a ticket rep. He was very hard up to dump a three-game package on me, to the point where he was offering multiple free games if I bought one. Mighty tempting, I gotta say, but I have a wedding to save up for.
• Vaccine checks are still spotty. When I came in against Seattle, I got checked but not my brother in law. This time, I didn’t get checked but I heard someone at the door shout to get proof ready,
• I had a sign that said “I want to see one more live Devils win before we all die,” with the word “die” written wavy in between a Devils logo and a mushroom cloud. It got quite a few laughs, but unfortunately I was eventually told it was inappropriate and tore the sign up. I kinda felt that was going to happen but it was worth it.
• Siegenthaler, a Swiss, has the same skin tone as my wife, who’s Mexican. What gives?
• Our defense looked pretty good. I want to see less frantic, “pass for the sake of passing” bullcrap from them and more games like this.
• Gotta start Daws more than Gillies at this point, IMO. I’d like to see a respectable finish to the season and Gillies just doesn’t cut the mustard for that role.

Wait, you're telling me that when you win the goaltending battle you have a high chance of winning games? But I was told our defense was disgraceful and that we were years away from competing?

Every night is when you are small like him

Good on ya.

I believe Siegs is half Thai.

Sounds like we got some goaltending last night. Outshot slightly but ended up winning by a lot.

I am wondering about the interference rule. On Hamiltons goal, Tatar turns and blocks a Canucks player from pursuing the puck up the boards, freeing up Boqvist from pursuit to create the 2 on 1.

Tatar doesn’t move into the Canuck forwards path. He’s already there. But he does turn and intentionally impede him with a cross check.

Is that arguably interfering? Or is it okay because he’s holding a position he already has?

My first thought on seeing that replay was that it deserved an interference call.

Got a pic of that sign? I get why you had to get rid of it but that’s great.

This is so damn funny.

Hughes mom and everyone all happy and everything.....while Dad on the left is like Grumpy-Cat.

I take it more as been there done that. Jack is so good his father just expects it after watching him pot 2000 goals since he was 4. Lol

Here’s a fun little moment i called from last night’s highlights. Someone funnier than me can do something with it.

Looked like it to me because he turns and checks him intentionally - then I began wondering about the rule. He’s not playing the puck. No pretense of that. He actually turns and uses his stick to stop the forward. But he is entitled to occupy his ground. I just don’t maybe understand the rule? Or was it a big time missed call.
