GDT: Lightning @ Devils: The 2016 HF Devils Oscars

[Bleedred]

Hope this is Tootoo's farewell lap, with this last minute shift.

 

[Bleedred]

10-1

Is that the shots this period in favor of the Lightning? Close enough.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

You have a thing for driver doors.

it's the analogy of being in the driver seat and screwing things up - like this team.

 

[Bleedred]

Sounded like some boos there to end the game.

I'd be booing too, tired of getting shutout all the time.

 

[theking72]

It's over Johnny

 

[MadDevil]

Well, it was a fun ride.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

 

[glenwo2]

Yep. Now it's time move onto the Trade thread and start talking....stuff.


This game is over.

I could not be in attendance tonight, but if I was, I would probably have booed too.
And I rarely boo the Devils, I could count the times on one hand through the seasons.

Two nights in a row of dreadful hockey by NJD.

If Rico is injured, shut him down for a month and let him heal.
He looks shot.

So many goals against when all the opposition did was simply throw the puck on net. 3 f the 4 goals were scored this way. How many times have we given up ugly goals in these two weeks?

 

[Bleedred]

How did I know the ''Celebrating Martin Brodeur'' Barnabas Health commercial would be the first commercial to start the break just now?

They really need some other Marty commercials with other quotes and highlights.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Include Sevs in the quartet we send to Albany for their playoff push.

Blandisi
Boucher
Severson
Helgeson

I thought I saw Ray reading a copy of Publishing Clearing House tonight.

 

[Comparison Ford]

It was definitely fun ride while it lasted, so much more hope for next season.

There were actually people left to boo? I cleared out with like five minutes left at 4-0 and it was already pretty empty by then. I'm not usually a beat the traffic person but at that point my friend wanted to leave anyway and honestly that game met my criteria of leave early (either down five after two periods or down four late in the third).

 

[NJDevs26]

That needs to be the next GDT

 

[NJDevs26]

Now of course, selling does not mean that we're gonna sell EVERY UFA.

The guys I'm talking here are Tootoo, Ruutu, Gionta, Farnham. If you really think we're gonna get anything for them, when we got nothing for Havlat and Ryder last year, you're completely mistaken, Just to put it nicely.

The only nice things we have to be sold are Stempniak and Schlemko. Havlat and Ryder sucked last year, but they at least had merit and a reputation as being good players just a year or so before last season.

I mean, when was the last time Ruutu was good? 4 years ago? Maybe 5? Half a decade ago? When was the last time Tootoo was a decent third line player? Half a decade ago?

4th line guys like Gionta and Farnham are never really in demand at the deadline.

Some of the UFA's they'd literally have to throw in the trash to get rid of them.

Haha it did sound like a very faint or quiet boo.

I figured it was because the place was emptied out.

 

[Satans Hockey]

Well that was one of the most depressing funerals I've ever had the displeasure of attending.

Glad I picked this game to be my first live game since November.

Honestly. You don't want to say they didn't care because I'm sure that's not true... but it looked as close to that as possible.

I think they did try the first two periods but they didn't play very well and Tampa did, when that happens against a better team you're gonna get wasted. The third period they just got stupid frustrated and packed it in but the horse was already out of the barn at that point and they knew it.

 

[Uli Hiemer]

I slept through the entire game. Thank goodness.

 

[Bleedred]

I don't question their effort tonight, at least not in the first two periods.

They had the best start out of any of the last two games, even better than the Rangers game. That was a bad start too.

They mailed it in for the 3rd, but that's common when teams are out of it. We weren't coming back anyway.
