GDT: Your New Jersey Devils (21-7-2) vs. Florida Panthers (14-13-4), 7:30 PM, MSG

[Better Call Sal]

We've hit our first real skid of the season. And when you hit the skids, you make a call for an old reliable.

Now, in classic HF fashion, people are abandoning ship on our first rough patch of the season.

But the lineup changes were successful overall last game, and if we keep that rate of play up, there's no reason to think we won't be back to our winning ways sooner than later. Plus:

Spidey has brought us success in the past, here's hoping he does it again.

#90 Tomas Tatar - #13 Nico Hischier (C) - #49 Fabian Zetterlund
#17 Yegor Sharangovich - #86 Jack Hughes (A) - #63 Jesper Bratt

#70 Jesper Boqvist - #20 Michael McLeod - #10 Alexander Holtz

#71 Jonas Siegenthaler - #7 Dougie Hamilton

No better time than now to get back to our winning ways and to send the detractors back to where they came from.

And certainly no better time for Nico and Jack to continue breaking out this year!

LET'S f***ING GO DEVILS!!!

First!!!

Ticket prices going crazy on this one. 3rd home game of the week and they played at MSG on Monday. Defs not expecting a sell-out.

Ill decide a few hours before the game if i have the energy in me to take the chance to go witness live the 4th loss of the week.

Regardless, LGD!

First!!!

is this still a thing?

Ok, at least this one isn't tempting the GDT gods. Hope they can turn this ship around. And faster than Jack and his aircraft carrier turns....

End the losing streak, Spidey

 

[Guttersniped]

Watch out for Aleksi Heponiemi!



He’s listed at 5’10” 155 which is kind of amazing, he was 149 at the draft.

 

[Bcap88]

Hopefully Bratt gets going sometime soon

15 p in his last 21 games

 

[Bleedred]

I’m healthy scratching DD for this one.

I personally banned him from taking part.

He was bringing too many bad vibes because of how in love he is with with the Islanders, Rangers and Flyers. And we all know how he feels about Florida.

Hopefully that’ll change something up and spark some good vibes.

 

[glenwo2]

Just win.

Don't care how.

Don't care by how much.

Don't care if it's in OT.


Just win.

I am very unenthused right now.

No longer upset or happy or excited.

I just want an end to this skid.


TONIGHT.

what the...? lol

 

[Louskoolaid89]

This GDT rules! Yeah got myself a ticket tonight in section 11 for $54 total from our friends at Ticketbastard! LFGD we will turn this bitch around. Too good and too sexy and good looking to take anymore of this losing shit!

You can actually bench one of your "top" players and have accountability when you have depth. We couldn't afford to do that in season's prior to this one. Yeah so we are more of the team that won 13 straight than the one that lost the last 4. Look December is going be a bitch and just breaking even in the win loss column is very acceptable IMO. It means we'll have to beat strong playoff teams like Boston and Carolina just to be .500 for December.

No, they’ll have to beat strong playoff teams like us! I forgot who said it on here, but WE are the strength of schedule. LFGD!!

 

[glenwo2]

Can we haz a win?

 

[Devs3cups]

Keep on playing well like you’ve done in the last 3 games and I’ll be good. Hockey is a weird sport. With that said, I’d 1000% be happier with a win.

LGD!!

Always love the 60s Spiderman gifs.

I won't be able to watch this one tonight, because I'll be out for a holiday party. Hoping to see good things in the box score though.
