[AveryQuietMan]

[glenwo2]

In retrospect those nachoes are not good

Are they better than the infamous $1 hotdogs from hell?

Screw that. I enjoy dollar hot dog night.

I bet you only enjoy it because it's the only time food at the Rock is affordable.

More I spend all my money on booze. Hard to resist those Canadian tall boys they sell.

Good times.

I used to eat 6 or 7, no lie.

I can still eat 6 or 7 hot dogs. They're really not that high in calories, just high in fat and probably not that good for you. I'll still enjoy some hot dogs though. Some of them only have 140-170 calories, while the bun has 110-120. I think it was Nathan's when it was dollar hot dog night. Nathan's are good.

 

[Bleedred]

How about that pass from Nico on the first goal. And that hit by hall!

Who cares about that high tho? Still probably 400 fewer than what Larsson has this season.

i am so glad they posted this. this guy was the mannnnnnnn, crowd went nuts

It's nice to be 4-0 on this homestand so far. Well, 3-0 I guess. We played on the road in Montreal in between the Kings home game and these last few games. Our home record wasn't all that great before this 4 home wins in a row stretch.

One of the last four teams with under 10 regulation loses.

It's funny how traumatized I still am from the past few seasons. Whenever they fall behind, and especially against the Rags, I feel a deep emptiness and hopelessness like there is no way back to victory. But this team is different than these sorry lineups from the past 4 or 5 seasons and yet, some nights I still can't believe what I am seeing. I have to keep telling myself: The Devils are back and they are for real. They are, they are, they are.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Yeah I don’t think we need to keep doubting this team his when they fall behind.

This year they almost always seem to find away to get back into it.

 

[MadDevil]

Watching it again, Boyle's shootout goal was so damn quick.

Literally seconds after Dano said how hard it is to beat Lundqvist five hole.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Boyle definitely seems like the perfect locker room leader to teach these rooks and help will this team to the playoffs.

 

[Bcap88]

team is for real, play like that and its free cheese

 

[Bcap88]

Taylor needs the C next go around. Dude set the tone and honestly this is his team.

 

[NJ07102]

Taylor needs the C next go around. Dude set the tone and honestly this is his team.

Yeah, and is he having fun to finally play on a good team. It shows on his face how much he enjoys every second of it. Great team guy as far as I'm concerned. And Boyle... what can you say about him? Such a great leader and such a great person too. I think he was the missing piece in this lineup, a spiritual leader so to say.

 

[SeidoN]

blows my mind people still shit on the trade

 

[Bleedred]

blows my mind people still **** on the trade

The Hall for Larsson trade? It's one of the worst trades in the history of ever.

Well, at least of the decade. People who don't think so are in denial.

We traded a #3-#4 defenseman for a guy that's easily our best player.

It was a heist.

Oilers fans can try to sell everyone they can on it, right before they (the few who still like him) try to sell me how they don't have a mediocre and overrated head coach.

 

[NJDevs26]

Boyle definitely seems like the perfect locker room leader to teach these rooks and help will this team to the playoffs.

Boyle's an example of why you need vet leadership for a young team. Granted, not all vets are Brian Boyle but still it's helpful for the kids to see a guy like him on and off the ice.

And think about this too, Boyle chose us over other teams ostensibly closer to winning, at least on paper. Maybe he knew something too.

The Gomez to Montreal trade was much much worse.

 

[Bleedred]

The Gomez to Montreal trade was much much worse.

That was last decade in 2009.

I don’t think that trade looked as bad at first. Gomez was still a first line center, but just on kind of a crappy contract. Two or three years later it looked really bad. The Larsson for Hall deal looked extremely suspect from the start. Even to many Oilers fans, until they changed their mind due to the making the playoffs last year.

He may have thought he had a better opportunity to fill the role he is now on this team as well. He probably saw an opportunity with a young roster where he could be a leader and play a larger role than on some other teams, where he would be a purely depth player.

He's having a fantastic season though.

 

[Bleedred]

Palmieri has been awesome when he’s played.

We still have him for 3 more years on a really great contract.

On pace for 60 points (in 82 games) and has one of the lower on-ice shooting percentages on the team.
