the writing/grammar in that article is atrocious
I want to see them all be a modern day Pandolfo and just hound them the entire series.He'll see a lot of Travis and the Texans, which I think may prove irritating - three guys who are very good defensively and fast.
Had a dream last night Devils tied a game 3-3 to get it into overtime. Then my Dog woke me up so no idea how it finished.
It is frigging unreadable. I want to track this guy down on the internet and slap the **** out of him and spam his facebook accounts. geeez.. clearly monkeys can bang on keyboards.

Did you ship it via amazon prime so he’ll have them in time for Saturday’s preview?i just shipped the author a box of commas, so hopefully future editions will be better. then again, based on that article he may be allergic to commas. my god don't open the package!!
Yes but our best players, Hall, Palmieri, and Nico have never played a playoff game. Those are the guys we really lean on. The first game is going to be the toughest IMO.People realize we have like nine or ten guys with prior playoff experience, right?
"lack of experience"
We really do have the perfect mix of youth and veterans. I'm excited to get going tomorrow.Current Devils with playoff games played:
Boyle - 102
Johansson - 69
Lovejoy - 58
Zajac - 52
Greene -45
Maroon - 42
Vatanen - 40
Palmieri - 33
Moore - 33
Stafford - 30
Grabner - 29
Yes we have some important rookies with no playoff experience, but I don't see people claiming that Sergachev, Gourde, and Point will be hurt by their lack of experience.

Hockey and music and finding the game where you least expect it.

Edit: When I was referring to Palmieri I meant in his role as a top 6er.
Yeah I was a little unclear in that post but I meant to say that Palmieri has a bigger role now then when he did when he was with the Ducks.Palmieri actually did see some games with the Ducks in the playoffs over the years.
The games we've had most of the month of March have been as close to playoff games as they can get for the guys that haven't seen a playoff game. They handled some of the biggest games of their careers to date pretty well during that stretch so you hope it's a good indicator of how they'll handle similar games coming up now, of course of more importance.
The team has essentially been playing playoff games since the big west coast trip. Pressure didn’t faze them then, I don’t expect nerves to be much of a factor.
Hall is gonna get one early, I can feel it.Agree, though maybe in the opening period on Thursday for a little bit.

Let's not all jump off the ledge either when Keith lets in his mandatory goal in the first two minutes.Agree, though maybe in the opening period on Thursday for a little bit.
I think that if the Devils want to make any noise in the playoffs then Pavel Zacha needs to have a coming out party. We have a rough idea of what we will get from Hall-Nico-Palmieri. If Zacha can really solidify that second line they have a chance to do something.
Especially if they get any significant time on the PP, Tampa should have no problem scoring. Our key has to be the counterattack; we have to use our speed and transition game to keep them somewhat on their heels. Lovejoy adds nothing in regards to either of those factors.
