Corsi is GROSSLY overrated
Dust him off and put him on an airplane, Lou.
This season is still young. It's not over.....................YET

Lemaire is retired and won't be coming back yet AGAIN. I think we need to put that to rest now.
A lot of people would be against Lemaire but current roster is a Lemaire type of team.
He was retired when John MacLean was coaching too.
The problem with Boucher is he's basically a more sandpapered version of Pete, though he'd probably be the most likely candidate from the outside imo. I don't see Maurice as an option because of his relationship with Pete. I don't see Laviolette as an option because I don't think Lou would put up with his whining/diving.
I don't see Lemaire v4.0 either...at some point Gramps is going to tell Buddy Lou to fix his own problems. I dread Stevens v1.0 but the only thing that stops me from thinking we're headed that way is he just hasn't been behind the bench long enough.
I'm tired of the odd man breaks, I'm tired of the constant forechecking, and many times nothing to show for it. I'm tired of these bozos in the lineup that have no business being in there over players who are sitting upstairs.
Lemaire was also under contract at the time, so it was easier to yo-yo him back in.
Do you think this team is fit to play a more defense oriented game? I'm not sure if they are or aren't. I don't believe the current system is really working with the guys we have though.
Yeah, and Lou had to call him up personally and ask for him to return. Lemaire made it sound like he couldn't refuse but the consensus was that he did Lou a big favor coming back to clean up a big mess.
I don't know that for sure, I'm just making an educated guess.
But its 2013 now, Lemaire is a few years older and probably enjoying retirement. I don't think he is an option anymore at this point.
The problem is its been way too long and the system just doesn't work for this team anymore. Its getting tiresome watching the Devils bang their heads against a brick wall over and over again with nothing to show for it.
It all starts with the coach, we need to find someone who will play the right players while also implementing a game plan that suits this roster.
Also Lemaire would ****ing show Larsson where to be and would put Fayne in for Harrold and Josefson in for Gionta because he's not a complete ass hat.
Dust him off and put him on an airplane, Lou.

Lemaire is old as balls and is probably bored out of his damn mind.
DeBoer will be fired within two weeks, book it!
You know what I don't understand?
Why any Devils fan would be anti-Lemaire.
The one explanation I've seen is "He's old."
So?
