just watched the PK interview from media day, I love this guy

My wife just goes, "#20 - Who wore it better Blake Coleman or Jay Pandolfo"?

I said why do you hurt me so bad?

 

[Cheddabombs]

I'm so giddy for the season to start. Maybe I'm an optimist here but our forward group is really f***ing good, the defense is pretty good and I think PK will thrive as being the guy here, and I'm more confident in our goalies than most. Last season there was pretty much one line I was excited to see hop over the boards, and Zacha of course but I'm just a proud father. This year I think I'd be excited for all four lines.

This is such BS, group B doesn't get to practice until AFTER the game? Setting them up for failure.

Got a chuckle out of this quote from Hall today. Wrong fanbase to say this to there Taylor, may want to brush up on your Devils history a bit . He does not want to be here, guy doesnt even care to learn the teams past and more importantly, PTSD trigger symptoms of its fanbase.

"It’s really only in the last few years where there’s this whole paranoia about players playing the last season of their contract. So, we have a lot of time

Here’s what Devils’ Taylor Hall, Ray Shero said about forward’s contract talks

Point totals from 92/93 seem from another planet 17 years later.

@Aethon did you edit your post above to add the chambers part? i didnt see it the first time i read the post……and ya, i knew you were a big chambers fan, youve mentioned it a few times through the years

Yup. Semak and Hankinson for Chambers and Cole.

Semak was a fun for one year, but not really love worthy....at least not from me...that year 92-93 Claude Lemieux led the the team in scoring and he became one of my favorites all time....Alex was lucky enough to go along for the ride

Both games vs the Rangers, with the home game being our broadcast team. MTL and Boston TV will carry the games monday. unsure about the rest

 

[MartyOwns]

so we should trade a DMan just so we can trade for a DMan

makes sense!

yup that’s exactly the point i was making, good job as always

 

[AfroThunder396]

Palmieri is an elite RW and should be treated as such. He is not a "top-6 forward" or "decent scoring RW". He is an elite top-10 player at his position. It would be very difficult to justify a deal where we lose him.

 

[Emperoreddy]

We don’t know what the two squads will look like yet, right?

Used some old burner accounts to give Hip Hop Hooray a few votes. Anything to make Hall happy.

Speaking of our goalies, go compare Carter Hart’s numbers to Mackenzie Blackwood’s. I find it interesting that all the talk around the league is that the Flyers future in goal is set and Hart is a surefire star, but the Devils on the other hand have major goaltending issues. Now, it’s totally possible that will be the case, but Blackwood and Hart’s numbers are identical. I’m not sure why everyone outside of the Devils organization is so dismissive of Blackwood.
