[Unknown Caller]

Have you seen the defense?

Yes, it's probably in the top half of the league now when it was likely the worst defense in the league just 2 seasons ago.

Posted this before the draft. Signing/trade, close enough.

So much damn negativity...

I think the Devils will have a great offseason. I see us drafting Hughes, making a trade for a top 4 D and signing a winger in free agency. Then Hall re-signs and if he doesn’t then I trust Ray will get a fantastic return for him.

Good vibes people, good vibes.

listening to an old interview, someone said his game's comparable to datsyuk lol oh snap

Yes, it's probably in the top half of the league now when it was likely the worst defense in the league just 2 seasons ago.

I think that largely depends on what we get from Subban.

I still think the defense is terribly ill-conceived. I have said it in the past I will say it again, I don't think the players are bad, I just think they don't fit together. It is thrown together in a mixed up fashion with no real vision in my opinion.

Hope our Gooses fate is better than this guys ^

 

[Nocashstyle]

Was firmly on the “let’s not get crazy, his game may not translate” train when some on here were throwing out crazy offers for him...but at this price, this is an amazing move worth the “risk”

 

[Shadow001]

Upon seeing the trade confirmed via an NHL app alert, the goal horn went off in my head...

None of that Rangers crap with the short horn followed by a completely uninspiring, unfun to chant fan created celly song or whatever laughable garbage the Flyers play after laying on the horn for 20 seconds straight.

Nah, I’m talking the good one; the 2012 era “Henrique! It’s over!” three perfectly timed horn blasts followed, of course, by R&R P2.

Watch his KHL highlights. He's like a mini-Kovalchuk.

Crazy he ended up here.

There's already some sort of deal in place for our annual WWE Night. I'm sure they'll figure something out.

 

[These Are The Days]

Yup... Called it
