Post-Game Talk: Post-mortem: Sabres 7, Devils 2

[PKs Broken Stick]

I really don't know what to say. What I see, is not players being unfamiliar with each other. What I see is them not knowing what to do.

 

[Davegarri]

Please explain the system to us.

There isnt one. Or if there is its so bad no one knows what that system actually is. There's very little structure

 

[Satans Hockey]

It's really been all down hill since that Coleman goal. From going to that excitement to thinking Cory and Hall might be done for a long time to then blowing last nights game and getting destroyed in this one. I know it's only 2 games but this has been a real bummer since that goal.

Well that one guy insists on there being one, so I'm waiting for an explanation of it.

Honestly after Washington and Carolina, the Metro isn’t all that amazing. Pitt looks like shit so far this year.

We do need to be in it by thanksgiving, but it also shouldn’t be that hard. Third in the Metro May be easier then either wild card spot as the power seems to be in the Atlantic this year.

Pens looked bad in game 1. They won 7-2 today

 

[NikGusev97]

For those who want to dump Hynes, who is the real coach that is out there that we need to scoop up?

I’m no Hynes defender, but it’s important to think about that aspect of it before kicking him out the door.

We need to get Larry Robinson on the horn. Urgently. Benches need to be thrown.

Their D isn’t good. They aren’t scary. We have enough talent. Either Hynes needs to figure it out or someone else has to get in here in a hurry.

Larry is semi-retired.

Ftorek?

 

[njdevils1982]

Larry is semi-retired.

…and he wasnt the one that threw the bench

 

[JimEIV]

Larry isn't a good head coach. He works best being the players friend and that doesn't really work as a head coach...he says this himself.

 

[NikGusev97]

Ftorek?

I was gonna make the Ftorek joke comment but decided Robinson would be better.

 

[Devils090]

So tired of Hynes and Nassredine, they’ve done absolutely nothing for our defense

 

[NikGusev97]

…and he wasnt the one that threw the bench

Wait, who threw it? I remembered it as Robinson.

 

[njdevils1982]

Wait, who threw it? I remembered it as Robinson.

he was there

Anyone here play FIFA? One of the most key strategic changes you can do is change attack/breakout to "free-form" rather than "structured/positional."

There's a reason why no such option exists for the damn defense. Someone should tell the coaching staff.

 

[JimEIV]

Robbie Ftorek threw the bench and he was 100% right. Did you see Pandolfo's face? And no call.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Wait, who threw it? I remembered it as Robinson.

It was Ftorek.

 

[NikGusev97]

he was there

OK wow it was Ftorek. Well maybe he can come in for 1/2 season and scare the crap out of everyone. Something needs to be done before this gets outta hand.

 

[JK3]

Ok, couldn't watch the game, got a text from my brother saying it was awful, worse than last night, Blackwood wasn't good and that they were scrambling all over and everyone was out of sync and that he hates Hynes lol. Then I check the score and it's 7-2, wooof. What the hell happened?

 

[MNDevilsfan]

You couldn't draw up a worse start to the season for Blackwood. He's had some bad luck on a couple of these sure, but he's looked very shaky thus far.

It doesn't help that the rest of the lineup looks completely disorganized, of course. Hynes and his staff better have some answers here, because what they're doing currently is not working.

 

[crashline]

he was there

This but Hynes picking up Severson and throwing him on the ice.

hey, we all forget some facts or stats sometimes

Basically we lost because we looked like a girl's middle school team. If there is such a thing.
