None of the tweets are loading for me for some reason. Anything really important?

With Lack going tonight, this could be interesting. Though I guess the same could be said of Kinkaid.

Lack starting. And then conflicting reports on who is playing tonight up front.

Replacing Lovejoy with Mueller, especially tonight against a fast lightning team makes too much sense. Hayes has to go for Boyle. And we sorely miss Gibbons quickness in the bottom 6. Johansson has a decent amount of speed too. And Stafford.... what else can you say about him?

We really need some of these slugs out of the lineup. They're weighing us down. Part of it is coaching and part is out of necessity. But still.

The slugs are weighing us down argument never held that much water in the actual results department.

Generally just an excuse to bag on Zajac.
Said nothing about Zajac. I've got no problem with Travis over the last 20 or so games. He's picked it up.

It's Lovejoy Hayes and Stafford that have to go.

Hynes was doing a great job using Lovejoy sparingly as a number 7 earlier in the season. That's what he needs to be.

As I said, some of its coaching (Lovejoy) and some of its out of necessity (Hayes,Stafford)

Mueller doesn't replace Lovejoy though. Someone has to take over his PK minutes.

Only way Mueller comes in and Lovejoy comes out is if Severson starts to take over Lovejoy's PK minutes.

Santini would replace him if they called him up as he has played heavy PK minutes.

Definitely, but then someone has to go. I'd rather keep him in Binghamton rather than bring him up until everyone is healthy and then sending him right back down.

Santini will almost certainly get called up once the roster limit is over after the deadline.

Lack vs lightning.... this won't end well. Kk is good vs the canes so I can see why this was done.

I have low expectations for tonight. Just want the Devils to keep it close and competitive.

Would be pleasantly surprised to get out of this game with a point.

Would be ECSTATIC to the point of insanity, if they come away with 2 points somehow.

Lovejoy is a constant by which we measure our pain.

So you’re saying there is a Lovejoy hat trick incoming?

Also my prior post was a slightly changed Lennon song quote. I’m not creative enough to have thought of that on my own.
I knew that quote was Lennon-esque, its alot like your signature quote,
Now I never said hatrick, but it could be one for the money, or two for the show !
Just dont step on my blue suede shoes !
