Post-Game Talk: Devils defeat Avs 4-1 : Feels Good, man

[glenwo2]

Yeah, don't get saying Hall had a bad game. He was robbed a multi-point night by Bernier becoming Hasek.

Mojo I understand because he had some really lazy plays that could have cost us badly, and not a ton else to show for it

It's the lazy plays that kind of almost(not quite) offset the good ones he had.

That's why I said he had some good moments and some not so good.

He didn't suck but it wasn't anything to write home about either, imo. At times, I forgot he was even on the ice. Maybe I was being too focused on Nico.....can you blame me?

 

[Lou is God]

I thought Mueller was solid today, no real qualms with what I saw.

 

[Bologna 1]

In my experience, not a good sign when the coach says he has "no update" on injured players.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

I know Moore had a nice goal, but I’d rather Prout in for him. Butcher made a statement that he can handle PP time and he looked stronger defensively than Moore.

Assuming no Stafford/Palmieri:

Hall-Zacha-Bratt
MoJo-Nico-Hayes
JQ-Rico-Blandisi
Wood-Coleman-Noesen

Greene-Severson
Mueller-Santini
Butcher-Prout

Rico saying the energy in the building reminded him of the 2012 run

In my experience, not a good sign when the coach says he has "no update" on injured players.

yeah, but they said (or I read) they will be reevaluated tomorrow, so hopefully its just swelling/soreness

Only players that didn't have a great game: Mueller, Zacha, Mojo

Not that these guys played bad, but I thought they each made quite a few poor decisions or lazy plays. Zacha started to look passive again and tentative on the puck. Mojo played exactly like the player I said he was having watched him play for years with the Caps. Both looked great at times in preseason, so hopefully it's just 1 game.

Rico saying the energy in the building reminded him of the 2012 run

it sounded awesome on TV...and yeah, its been awhile

 

[Emperoreddy]

Honestly no one had a "bad" game.

My only real negative was the injuries.

 

[Emperoreddy]

it sounded awesome on TV...and yeah, its been awhile

I loved how vocal they were for Nico. The notion the fanbase wasn't aware, or hyped about him was proven very false.

Also loved the crowd giving Johnson the business.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

It was a great atmosphere.

 

[mike30]

the rock was insane today. had so much fun

 

[Emperoreddy]

It makes me even hungrier for playoff hockey to return and the place really begins to shake.

Good news is we are on the right track with these kids, even if we have to be a bit more patient.

 

[The 29th Pick]

We had 40 pages of GDT with zero negativity ! How long has it been !

 

[Ripshot 43]

I was on and off watching in the 3rd. Did Greene come back?

 

[ChicoEatsNachos]

Yes he did

 

[Dialamo]

Yep almost zero! Only negatives I saw were against MoJo. Rest of the GDT was high energy!

 

[Brooklyndevil]

I wonder how fast this team might be with Micky and Wood in the lineup.

 

[Ripshot 43]

Yes he did

Thank you. Did anyone narrow down when Stanford got hurt?

 

[theoptimist]

I'm glad Lovejoy had 0 minutes

 

[The 29th Pick]

I'm glad Lovejoy had 0 minutes

he didnt look bad at all today !

 

[TheUnseenHand]

No Lovejoy was amazing.

 

[The 29th Pick]

Only players that didn't have a great game: Mueller, Zacha, Mojo

It was a bit alarming to see Zacha make the extra pass when Hall fed him on the rush in the first period. I thought Mueller was solid though.

What a great day! 4-1 Devils win and Red Bulls won 3-0 and clinched a playoff spot! I only missed 7 mins of the Red Bulls game, awesome day!
