GDT: Devils vs Islanders - 7:30pm 4/11/14: Season Effort Edition

[njdss4]

Jagr should have about 7 goals in the last 3 games and has none.
He works his tail off 110% but he just can't score anymore the last 10 or so games.

He must be tired after trying to carry the team on his back all year.

 

[njdevils1982]

THEY DID?


Can you provide the link to the actual amended rule because if true, then I have yet ANOTHER thing to blame Pete for.

the first one was worse then the second one…….both are a joke though

 

[tycobb]

Maybe the islanders. Why would a coach that has one playoff berth in 6 seasons be in such high demand?

Because he has had a crappy roster for 5 of his 6 seasons.

I actually would be upset if he went to TOR because he could probably make them a good team and that would be so annoying.

Wow.


Please someone up in Toronto get rid of the shootout and replace it with 3 on 3....Thanks.


What a joke.

Baily and strome both came to full stops.
Game meant nothing in the standings but it's a farce that neither were waived off by the on ice moronic officials nor Toronto.

Marty deserved better than that trash officiating.

As did Chico

 

[Benedict Parisechuk]

You mean to tell me that both players DIDN'T come to complete stops?

I'm not sure the first one could have been any more "blatant" without the aid of a lawn chair.

They sure looked blatant to me! You kidding me?

Alright they were then, who cares? The game meant nothing. The more losses the better, as far as I'm concerned. Anything to get Petey out of here is fine by me.

 

[StvBroDan]

OH MY GOD....THEY JUST SHOWED THE REPLAY OF BOTH!!! THEY BOTH CAME TO COMPLETE STOPS!!!!! BULLSH*T!!!

Yup **** the war room **** Toronto

QFT.

That was a complete abomination of a shootout.

I mean...it's almost like the Refs WANTED to keep the Devils winless in the shootout.


Could it be REVENGE for the Devils getting a 1st-rounder back perhaps?

 

[njdevils1982]

What a joke.

did you watch the raymond one in that link?

comical.

 

[NJDevils11]

I'm just as annoyed about all the shootout losses, the spin-o-rama is legal those were both very obvious spin-o-ramas, there is no chance they would ever get disallowed. Their is no conspiracy, it's just a crappy rule.

 

[nugg]

It's like adding insult to injury, or kicking you when you're down, etc.

 

[SeidoN]

imagine we had missed the playoffs over those BS goals

 

[glenwo2]

That's the only silver lining in this.


Doesn't make it any more of a joke.


I mean come on, BP....

The Isles don't need the Refs help to beat the Devils in the shootout.....

Dude, they just showed slow-motion replays on BOTH spin-o-ramas.

*BOTH* players came to complete stops and even one of them went a bit backwards, too.


I don't know how you can look at that and say otherwise.

 

[nugg]

Those goals were "Horse hockey", figuratively and literally!

Nothing "Hockey" about it.

 

[Bleedred]

No Pete press conference? Can someone post it when it's put up please?

It's a spin-o-rama, the spin-o-rama is legal. That's the bottom line and it's simple.

It's a nicer way of saying Horse "****"

The bottom line is that the Shootout has to go.

Hey Bleed, question for you :


Do you really think Marty sucks for being taken advantage of by the Refs in the shootout?


Or are you going to ignore me?

 

[Devils Dominion]

I know the islanders didn't beat the Devils in any of the games this season without the gimmick, but we had lethargic/bad efforts from most of our vets tonight.
Greene an example of just playing miserably.
I guess it's human nature to let down when the games means little.

 

[njdevils1982]

there are no shootouts in the playoffs. nor devils

a regular season 'show' for the lowest common denominator.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Marty's saves in the 3rd and OT were vintage and you can't get any better.
So glad I watched this game to see them.

I will say this, if Sunday does get to a SO, I'm out the doors and in my car by the time the first shooter touches the puck at center ice.
