GDT: The 2020/2021 Season Opener - Your New Jersey Devils at home against the Boston Bruins

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

Bruins looked old, slow, tired and stale over the summer.

Let’s blitz these ****ers.

5-2 Devils and a big night from Palmieri.

 

[Better Call Sal]

I got lucky last year and called Goose with the first goal, so I'll go back to another noob this year and say Mango gets it.

 

[ChicksDigTheTrap]

There is no excuse not to skate circles around these guys tonight

Honestly, I think we have a chance to make a statement tonight. I know, ever the optimist, but I think people are underestimating the losses the Bruins have had. No Pastrnak, no Krug and that defense leaves a little bit to be desired. Chara's obviously past his prime, but they'll need McAvoy and Grzelcyk to take even more significant steps to be competitive consistently.

They're not as deep as they once were. I hope your prediction rings true tonight!

 

[My3Sons]

The Tennyson nightmare continues

At least he is just a placeholder for Vats. I'd be more impressed if Kulikov managed to keep Butcher out of the lineup.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

now there might be others tonight, but it seems like Sharangovich will be the first player picked outside the top 2 rounds from 2018 to make his NHL debut

Devils goal by Zajac

off his nose.

Is Marchand out, too?

 

[JrFischer54]

i said 5-1 devils earlier in the week i'm sticking to it. the devils should be flying around the bruins tonight and i think catch them off guard and win this. not saying it will be the case all year but tonight it is.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Is Marchand out, too?

Not according to their website, he was listed on the first line with Bergeron and Studnicka.

Ugh.

Then I fully expect him to dirty-hit one of our youngsters just 'cause he can.

Damn rat-bastard.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Hopefully Severson can lay out the midget again

Hopefully Severson can lay out the midget again

I am really excited to see Damon for the first time since his rookie year away from Hynes. Severson more than anyone I am expecting things from

 

[Devilsfan992]

Some will say stuff like this can be lame, but you know what? I love this state and love shit like this.

Loving the Asbury references.

 

[JK3]

Wooooooooo!!!

 

[mtnet]

First opening night in the arena I'll be missing in a long time but I'm glad hockey is back.

Not expecting much given all the newness and change but hopefully the club is fired up.

 

[StvBroDan]

Lets start off the year by kicking Bruin arse.

 

[Davegarri]

No doubt that Tennyson scores the first goal tonight lmao

 

[Auto Pilot]

Ugh.

No Chara to protect him

 

[RememberTheName]

Always like bringing back this beauty of the one time Severson decided throw a hit.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

No Chara to protect him

That, and Wood and Subban got the blood pumping.

If Marchand tries to pull anything, he’ll likely regret it.

 

[OmNomNom]

For gdt we should add a poll to guess who scores first, for fun

 

[JimEIV]

I'm betting Lindsey scores before PK... I'm probably not getting great odds on that one though.

Though looking at that vid, it wasn't Chara going after Severson there.

It’s so refreshing to see the Devils finally getting some value out of their picks. Letting go of Conte was such a blessing.
