GDT: Spidey Says "This Town is a Make You Town" Devils @ Golden Knights, 10 PM, MSG+

[devilsblood]

Just remembered this and thought it was funny so I'll throw it out there.

But that tackle on Stafford last night?

It’s not even a guarantee that we’d get a more favorable matchup in the playoffs if we leapfrogged Philly. I just wanna get in and avoid Tampa.

You know, at this point, I'm not particularly scared of any matchup.

Every team has their Achilles heel and I'm thinking Tampa's is Vasilevsky's health and mental state.

 

[AfroThunder396]

We've played Tampa strong all year, they're crazy good but I'm not really scared of them.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I still think we would be a nightmare matchup for Pitt.

 

[njdevils19]

Lets also give some credit to Gibbons with the nifty back pass to Nico in the corner.

Yes that was a great pass. Didn't see it live.

 

[njdevils1982]

95 points won't be easy. Doable. But hard.

7-4-1

@ Los Angeles - W
@ Anaheim - L
@ San Jose - W
@ Pittsburgh - W
Tampa Bay - L
Carolina - W
Pittsburgh - OTL
Islanders - W
@ Montreal - W
Rangers - W
Toronto - L
Washington - L

What I actually think they'll do is go 5-5-2. 92 points

i doubt these 2 will be playing a full playoff lineup in these games

especially the leafs who are virtually locked in the spot they are in now

And I want to get in and avoid Washington.


Tampa is scary but the Devils had shown they can win against them.


They haven't shown they can do this against Washington.

 

[Ben Matlock]

Please, let's not speculate about possible playoff matchups before we're a lock.

One of Philly/Columbus/Florida (preferred order) hitting a wall would make me feel much more relaxed.

i'm not worried about washington if kinkaid is in net

Florida is so due for an extended losing streak. I just want them to piss away their games in hand, then I’ll relax.

As long as the Devils players themselves aren't speculating, it should be fine if we fans, whom have zero effect on the outcome of games(my Kinky tweet notwithstanding), continue to speculate.

 

[Better Call Sal]

I've got wood.

 

[VoidCreature]

Gibbons is damn good. I thought he'd just eaten a horseshoe early in the year, but he's a fundamentally good player. Reminds me a lot of Stempniak in 15-16.

 

[glenwo2]

I've got wood.

But....do you got MILES of WOOD?

 

[JimEIV]

I won't allow myself to even think about matchups until we make the playoffs. I don't think anything is a forgone conclusion.

 

[bobilly45]

Bratt healthy scratched again then?

Him in and stafford out?

 

[bobilly45]

Only think about the remaining games.... we're not guaranteed anything

 

[bobilly45]

If we do make it... Cory has 10 playoff game appearances, kk 0. Obvs cory will play.... though if he can't make the timely saves which cost is a game or 2, id send kk in for the rest (providing he's playing like he is now)

 

[JimEIV]

Marty lost 2 starts in a row in Boston for Terreri in the playoffs....if Marty could sit, Cory definitely can sit.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Reading through the posts when Vegas made it 4-2. What entertainment!

Some mild over reactions.

if we do make the playoffs, and if this goaltending trend continues, i could honestly see hynes going with kinkaid. i don't think we're getting very far in the playoffs with kinkaid though. if cory's not in net- and playing very well- i would be shocked if we made ti to the 2nd round, regardless of the opponent.

To be fair, they were absolutely smoking us and hit a bunch of posts. I was a bit worried.
