Post-Game Talk: Devils beat Rangers 5-2!

[Devilsfan992]

That's crazy

Nice scoop Chris Ryan

It's kind of funny reading the Rags board and seeing that some of them legitimately thought they were a playoff team going into this year.

Hughes was nothing to write home about most of his first year.

Yeah it makes me want to slow the roll on digging at Lafreniere...especially since it seems like the Rangers have the same problem we had the last few years, coaching. They really gotta get someone new in and find out if Lafreniere and Kakko will develop under another coach cause they ain't doing jack now.

Kakko has looked pretty good even if he isn’t producing the points but the Rags have absolutely no center play with Zib struggling as bad as he is and couple that with Quinn and a shaky defense, recipe for disaster.

damn shame lol

How did hughes look i didn't get to see the game?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Even in an off night, Hughes looks like a special player.

Started okay but faded. No telling but he could be one of the guys still feeling Covid effects.

 

[Emperoreddy]

And of all people Matt was slagging the Rangers on the radio, pointing out that they had a bunch of guys who had career seasons last year (Panarin, Mika, Deangelo, etc) and still would have missed the playoffs.

They have zero depth. Which isn't the end of the world for a rebuilding team, but they have a lot of money tied up in guys already to still be a bad team.

Yeah, it's going to take a minute to write off Laf, or Kakko for that matter.

that Kreider deal is really going to haunt them

but in true Rags fashion they’ll find a team to take it off their hands and probably get a 1st for it

 

[Bleedred]

I thought both goals were stoppable, but first goal was pretty forgivable.

He still should have allowed at least 2 goals, so no big deal.

This is the kind of game where the Schneidmingkaid combo allows 5 goals on 39 shots and we lose 5-2, because we’re out of the game before we could ever even score those last few goals.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Writing off Laffy would be extremely stupid. Kid will be fine.

Ryan Strome is also not a good player so it's tough when you are stuck with a shitty center.

made some plays, had a nice give and go with Bratt but also had some rust. Since he had the virus you’d expect it will take a few games for him to start flying again, hopefully Nico is back by then too.

He wants that 2nd one back, but he shut the door after that so hard to complain.

Yotes fan here. Saw Merkley scored. Really happy for him getting his shot. How has he looked?

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Went with Kuok-Zacha-Merk in the poll.

Blackwood unlucky but he going to be voted in on most nights. The Zacha line really stepped up today.

 

[Devils090]

hasn’t played much but he’s a nice bottom six guy to have, made a bad error in their 2nd goal but made up for it with one of his own. Merk is a solid option for us depth wise and we’ll definitely need it given our insane schedule.

Great first period. Awful second. Pretty bad third. Definitely his worst of the season

 

[Emperoreddy]

Merk had a good game. Huge goal.

Blackwood is currently 3rd in the league in save percentage. Tied for 7th in GAA
