GDT: The Jerk Store: Devils @ Hurricanes, 7 PM, MSG

[Bleedred]

More importantly .920 since coming back from injury which was good to see.

I think it was .921%. I'm still convinced it was a streak like Marty had in his decline years, but I'm hopeful he can play well in a backup/1b role.

The most optimistic I am is that maybe he plays better as a non-number one guy. I'm skeptical he would have played this well had he played most of the games Blackwood (and Kinkaid at the end) played, on top of the games he did play. Not because they got better teams or the team played better, but the workload would have been increased.

I thought McLeod was one of our better forwards tonight. Good to see him progressively improve.

What we want to see from him next season is starting to dominate the AHL.

 

[Bleedred]

Anything that pisses off Don Cherry is fine by me. Kuzy flapping the wings or a whole team of jerks. Whatever it takes. I hope to see his head explode one day when a Good ol Canadian boy comes into the league with an actual personality.

I think the Kuznetsov bird thing is kind of lame, as it looks like he's getting ready to go for the crane kick.

But it doesn't piss me off or anything.

Sorry I was traveling and missed all but the last three minutes. How many fun Seinfeld references did I miss?

Greene is having his 3rd-best offensive season.

Would have made a better season for us if he had a better defensive season, particularly before January....

Good for him, i guess. Man I'm cynical...

If you or anyone else recalls, I was one of the most VOCAL in my Hatred toward that stupid bird move last season.

All I remember anymore about last playoffs, as far as posts on this board are concerned was DD's over the top love of DSP.

again, not his fault he's forced to play top pairing. we all would rather he had an easier QoC matchup on the 2nd pairing but alas, injuries and lack of defensive depth happened

top pairing LD is still on everyone's priority list and hopefully it's on ray's as well

 

[Bleedred]

He's HF Devils' top heel.

It will be interesting to see his triumphant return. It would have been fitting while Florida and Philly were still not officially eliminated. Like one point away from elimination with 10 or more days left in the season, for him to proclaim that they'd win out and make the playoffs. Or during the game against the Rangers the other night.

The most fitting way for him to return would be after a Mrazek shutout in the playoffs or after DSP is somehow called up in Washington. Somebody(ies) would have to be injured in Washington for that to happen. And DSP scores the game winner.

Then all the sudden, the NWO music hits and out he comes, cutting a promo on how costly it was for us to not have DSP the last two years. Proclaiming an NYb cup win if they take a lead in their series at any time with Pittsburgh would also be returning in a big way.

The real question is, who's the third member? Clearly DD and COH are members.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

That'll do pigs.

 

[The Joker]

Zacha putting up points consistently now which is good.

Guys, we've nearly made it. We've lost some souls along the way, but we're almost there!

Our souls were lost right after the 1st half of the season was over.

Interesting stat from last night.

Every Devils skater besides Carrick had at least one shot last night.
