GDT: All Aboard the Positive Train! Rangers @ Your New Jersey Devils, 7 PM, MSG+

[Emperoreddy]

Honestly we were due for some breaks vis-a-vis the refs after the last two games. This is just an inconsistent league. On a night where almost nothing gets called for either side they get victimized on a bit of an oddity that doesn't even hurt them on the scoreboard (though it did hurt them losing Miller).

That was 100% the correct call though. Even if we ended it on the major they have nothing to complain about in regard to the call. Rule is clear cut. You can't fight with tape and injure a guy. Miller's hand was taped and Kalinin got cut.

So if they think they got screwed on that call someone mail them a rulebook.

Didn't the Devils not get any power play chances the last time they played at MSG?

 

[NJDevs26]

That would be correct

We did get dominated in the game but still zero power play chances is a little...rare.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Lol at Sam Rosen's blue tinted glasses on Rags in 60.

 

[Colin226]

Ahhhhh listen to the *******s with their Lets Go Rangers chants. How that work for you Rags fans.

I don't blame them. If I couldn't afford to see my team play at home, I'd try to recreate the real thing at an away game

Exactly, and the Devils dominated the Rangers in this game.

36-19 in Shots
52-39 in Corsi
46-25 in Fenwick

So shouldn't this mean we're even?

Oh god what did Sam say?

Buyers remorse by them all tonight....

 

[Devils Dominion]

What did he not say is a better question. LOL.

 

[Emperoreddy]

What did he not say is a better question. LOL.

I think he made an ass of himself over the Miller call because he didn't know the rule. I thought I read that.

 

[The Great Dame]

Wow feels good to win a season series against the Rags. Felt like it had been too long.

 

[billingtons ghost]

We need two vets on this D to help them develop. resigning a guy you trade is rare, odds are its not happening.

Definitely don't do it for a 2nd. He is more value to helping the defense for a few years then one 2nd.

Coyotes did it with Vermette last year. I disagree - at 29, he's a great part of the defense, but guys like Moore and Larsson can take a bigger role as vets. You have Severson and Merrill maturing as well.

 

[billingtons ghost]

I would very much so give up Boucher and a 1st for JvR. That is a steal for NJ in my mind. Signed 2 more years after this season, and is also a big boy from NJ.

JvR is so overrated everywhere and always.

He's hurt this year so he didn't get to put together his -30 zero-point disappearing act like last year.

Whoever we would get for a 1st + Boosh > JvR.

 

[MadDevil]

It always feels good to put up 3+ goals on King Nothing.

You'd give up a potential lottery pick and a Boucher for a complimentary, one-dimensional winger? Wow...

who's also a UFA soon

 

[Desert Devil]

6 of 8 points against the Rangers. They may beat us in the standings, but we took care of them this season. Such a great feeling. That Schneider paddle stop in the second was unreal. Here's to our upcoming four game win streak

 

[debplaceyonice]

more positive threads.
stay positive.

 

[Whaddagoal]

On the positive train:

Haven't seen many Kalinin post game video clips this year, so here's one on the Gordie Howe:

I want to boot them out of the playoffs so keep winning so Cory can stonewall them to the golf course.

 

[Devils Trap]

who's also a UFA soon

Hes under contract for 3 more years ...

 

[Emperoreddy]

Good to have 2 goal max Cory back. Want him to win at least the Jennings so if he goes back to his 2 goal max ways he should.

 

[R8Devs]

Hes under contract for 3 more years ...

he's under contract for 16-17 and 17-18 and then he's a UFA.

 

[Devils Trap]

he's under contract for 16-17 and 17-18 and then he's a UFA.

So 2 and a half more years

 

[R8Devs]

So 2 and a half more years

yes cuz they are going to go acquire when he's on IR

moving a first round pick on a team desperate for young potential for a guy who can bolt in two seasons is not really the way to go.
