Out of Town Scoreboard 2016-17 Part I

[Devils Dominion]

It should be shelved when your team isn't very good. I think it's funny how we talk about not being worried about other teams we have to jump when it's probably more likely that we finish bottom 5 or 6 in the league.

Very true, but, I'd like to at least hang around in striking distance just in case Ray makes a few moves.

Taking off my Devils fan hat for a second, it's not a stretch to say right now that we can finish in last place.
If Carolina doesn't try to tank it's very conceivable.

 

[NJDevs26]

There's plenty of threads to rant about the Devils - specifically the team thread and GDT's - the OOT scoreboard is to discuss other games.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

The Stars are awful. They look like an entire team of Henriques.

 

[Tundra]

Philly is smoking hot right now. I'm not overly surprised with their depth up front, but I thought their backend may hold them back.

Their goaltending will fail them, and their defense blows. Really really blows. Right now every gamble they take is coming up roses. Early in the season it wasnt, and their record then reflected that. That team will always be streaky. The way they play and the quality of players they have will assure that.

They and Cbj are good hockey clubs with potent offense and both play with a physical edge.

I think NYb will also continue to surge up the standings.

Look at the last 10 games of Cbj and Philly.

Philly is mediocre. Compared to the Devils they are good, but they are mediocre. Them and CBJ are on unsustainable hot streaks. They will both fall before the season is done. They both have major flaws as teams.

I don't see that happening.

1 of them may just miss out but both are deep teams that can score and are never out of games.

Columbus may be for real because they seem to be more well rounded than Philly. Bob is healthy and they boast a young defense with upside. Plus, Tortorella has them attacking, which plays to their personnel.

And Werenski has Norris potential in a few seasons.

 

[Bleedred]

The Stars are awful. They look like an entire team of Henriques.

They're also a team with two 13-14 Marty's in net. Actually, calling Lehtonen a 13-14 Marty might be an insult to the 13-14 Marty. Niemi is closer to that version of Marty.

Lehtonen is probably more comparable to the 11-12 version of Dwayne Roloson. Their GM shows major incompetence if they don't upgrade in goal after this year.

Cool the Jets. He has played 20 games.

Andrew Hammond is a late bloomer though.

And we would finish higher than Philly last season...

Hammond fell off a cliff.

Did Ottawa won again today?

 

[Dialamo]

Colorado is getting stumped in one of the most lopsided 1st periods of the season.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Fact of the matter is, the east is better than the west as a whole. It's going to be a tough go making the playoffs this season. The playoffs should offer up some interesting matchups and exciting series.

Hammond just wasn't that good. He was a scrub on a hot streak. I don't think he fell off a cliff, he just should have never really been that high on the cliff to begin with.

Hey I'm wrong sometimes too, I just like busting your balls on Hammond.

Ottawa lost to LAK 4-1, I don't understand for the life of me how LA scores all these goals.

Paul Thompson just got his first NHL point, Vancouver should really forfeit the game now.

Colorado is getting stumped in one of the most lopsided 1st periods of the season.

I hope the newbies ready to jump off a cliff after last night's game realize that Montreal put up six in less than a period.

 

[Bleedred]

Roy must have put some voodoo to blow the Avs out up in Montreal.

Colorado has a brutal play by play guy.

He's fine until Colorado scores a goal. Then he celebrates like he just won the lottery and is laughing in everybody's face about it.

I don't like the Avs, almost as much as St Loser.

 

[Bleedred]

This is pretty bad.

Joe Sakic to get canned next? It probably should have happened last year along with Roy

I'm starting to feel just a little bit bad for them.

This is why you don't hire Marty to be the GM of the Devils, this right here. Or Scott Stevens to be the Devils head coach. Even though Roy is gone now.

Sakic and management are to blame too.

I cant feel sorry for teams that consistently beat us like COL and NYb.

We finally beat Calg last season.

To be fair Colorado is really bad this year. Like REALLY bad

I don't feel bad for NYB, since they're in our division.

Colorado is a sad franchise, run by a bunch of brain damaged souls.

A hot streak doesn't change the fact that Snow has been making stupid decisions and is steering that franchise backwards. The Isles are still going to finish near the bottom. They aren't that good.

Flyers are way to inconsistent to do anything either. Their D is next level bad and so is their goaltending. A hot streak doesn't erase that and they will revert back to the mean.

Columbus is a tougher nut to crack. I don't think they are as good as they have looked lately, but they aren't as bad as Bleed thinks they are either.
