Out of Town scoreboard continues to be the Devils friend these days.
Columbus loss makes it somewhat bearable
Positive note tonight; the league didn't **** us out of a goal!
Vatanen wasn't that bad when playing, just the penalties. He looked pretty bad on that shorthanded goal, but even then, we were on the PP and needed to push to tie a game in which we trailed by one goal.I take it Greene and Vatanen had a bad game then?
lol
The frustrating thing is we probably should have won 3 of our last 4 instead of being on a 4 game losing streak. But some overturned goals and idiotic mental mistakes have cost us points, and in this tight of a division, that could be costly. Hopefully we stick with the good things we've done lately and don't get frustrated by the lack of results. Sometimes that can feed off itself and end up in a lengthy losing streak.
Greene was commenting about making too many mistakes and Gross said “specifically your backhand pass”.
Deb said she saw him walking around down by the locker room area after the game, and that he looked fine but implied that he tends to take these things well.Just saw Amanday Stein say no update on Zajac.
He’s on pace to score only 18 goals this year.
That’ll happen when you’re shooting 12% and not your career average of over 15% and you don’t even average 2 shots on goal per game.
He wouldn’t even score 15 goals in a year if he had a year of shooting only 8%, with the lack of shots he gets.
Yeah man, losing due to mental errors and officiating is worse than getting outplayed every might...Too many issues with this team to count.
I'm highly discouraged.
At NYb, we know where that will go.
I wish the break started today....
I can't take anything you ever say seriously if you truly believe Vatanen "wasn't that bad" last night.Vatanen wasn't that bad when playing, just the penalties.

I really hate anyone faulting Vatanen for the game winner. When we're trailing by one, we need to push to tie. Maybe those people would have been happier if we lost 3-2 instead of 4-2 (eventually 4-3 after that brutal softy on Bishop) but he needs to push there to try and tie the game and things like that happen when you're more aggressive in trying to tie the game.
Greene didn't really look much worse than most nights, goaltending usually just stops his **** ups (Cory had no chance on the goal he caused) and makes him still look ''Reliable'' and ''Good'', and he looks like a player that might be good in a reduced role, but it abysmal in this current role and just not barely serviceable in this current top pairing role.
He was mostly bad for the penalties, more than his on-ice play.I can't take anything you ever say seriously if you truly believe Vatanen "wasn't that bad" last night.
He's had some good games and some bad games since coming over, as expected. But his play both on and off the puck last night was so bad I figured he had $ on the Stars and was gonna toss the puck into our own net in the closing minutes.
Eh. It was more than the moronic penalties.He was mostly bad for the penalties, more than his on-ice play.
He looked pretty bad on that short handed goal, but you can’t possibly blame him on that fourth goal, unless you were content with giving up on trying to tie the game and fine with losing 3-2.
He turned the puck over because he was pressing and attacking and we needed to press and attack to tie the game at that point. And stuff like that tends to happen with aggressive forechecking and cycling. It was one of the major criticisms during the DeBoer era of what not to do when we had a lead. However, it’s whats needed when you don’t have a lead and need a goal to tie.
that game was about as close to just "letting" the opposition win as we've come all season, in regards to totally negating all the positive moments with gifts for dallas.
can't be stupid in your own end, kiddos. now we put ourselves in a position where a game at a rink we never win at becomes a mandatory two points. can't wait to trudge through the dirty ass leftover nyc snow to this one on sunday.
