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

[Kshahdoo]

Devils have just 7 forwards played according to the NHL official site.

 

[Darkauron]

I didn't think about Bastian much too. Which is a great sign to me.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

That was the best goaltending I've seen so far in the young season by Blackwood. Just super solid. Made some great saves, but also the easy ones were no nonsense, no rebound affairs. Absolutely terrific.

 

[Nubmer6]

McLeod looked good. He’s going to take over the Zajac role.

Not to be a downer, but... It's only 1 game.

 

[Cheddabombs]

 

[The 29th Pick]

I was disappointed with Gusev. Didn't love Palm's play either, and not impressed by Kuokonen. Other than that, I was pretty satisfied with the rest of the team, even Wood.

what about Johnsson?

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Devils have just 7 forwards played according to the NHL official site.

The whole NHL universe from their website to their app is f***ed up right now.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Vatanen in for Tennyson would be a massive upgrade too. He’s not even that great but Tennyson is poo.

I’m not sure who comes out for Bratt. Maybe Kuokkanen?

 

[StvBroDan]

Not to be a downer, but... It's only 1 game.

Exactly! you can look at that both ways

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Not to be a downer, but... It's only 1 game.

He was looking good towards the end of last season IMO.

mac

2 GA 37 shots….. .946

Id add SOG for the shootout. They goalies deserve that. The goal against counts so why not the saves?

 

[The 29th Pick]

You didn't like Sharangovich? Thought he was very solid for his first NHL game.

yeah I though "Rango" had a good game, I noticed him a lot

 

[The Wumpus]

Gusev is clearly skilled but he skates like he has to take a shit. Not sure I’d want to give him much term.

25 years ago, our soccer coach yelled at a player "Billy, you run like you've got a pickle up your a**".
Whole team fell over laughing.

 

[Saint Beaurivage]

Yegor Sharangovich is a clever player if you watch him closely. He knows how to pick pucks away from a cluster of players and has an unexpected burst of speed.

 

[ChicksDigTheTrap]

Holtz will be a welcome addition next season

 

[Cheddabombs]

1 point out of a playoff spot right now too, so close

 

[njdevils1982]

Id add SOG for the shootout. They goalies deserve that. The goal against counts so why not the saves?

not for individual stats

 

[The 29th Pick]

Wood had such a weird game, but I think you have to like it overall.

He does need more awareness around the net.

he is what he is at this point...hate him, love him, hate him

 

[Billdo]

Well, Hughes is on pace for 112 points. I'll take it.

 

[njdevils1982]

25 years ago, our soccer coach yelled at a player "Billy, you run like you've got a pickle up your a**".
Whole team fell over laughing.

and 25 years later that same coach would be let go for saying that to a player depending on the age of the player

 

[glenwo2]

Hey Guess what everyone??

We get to play against the Rat-Bastard AGAIN this Saturday.

 

[Devils Army]

I think Hughes is really good in shootouts in practice, time will come and he'll start nabbing them

 

[My3Sons]

not for individual stats

Only two goals against MBW tonight?

 

[Maine Fan]

The Devils were missing a lot of players. It was the opening game of the season. They should be happy to have 1 point, considering. Blackwood the MVP for this game.

Saturday should be a better game, with less rust.

That was the best goaltending I've seen so far in the young season by Blackwood. Just super solid. Made some great saves, but also the easy ones were no nonsense, no rebound affairs. Absolutely terrific.

I thought he was the best player on the ice for either team.
