Post-Game Talk: We are the ones who blew two more leads

[NJDevs26]

We'll probably be like 3-8-5 at the end of this 5 game road trip.

What game do we actually win lol...I'm not even kidding with this.

We'll fluke into one.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I am actually not sure we win another game under Hynes. Legit.

 

[New Jersey]

Fall of 2010 was worse. Same type of expectations too.

Nope, I disagree. I feel like *this* is undisputedly worse than the MacLean disaster. At least MacLean sucked immediately as a head coach. This is Hynes’ fifth year and we still haven’t learned anything. We’ve hit literal f***ing insanity.

Well there you go...we'll fluke into one after the coaching change.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

I was sitting behind the bench. Greene told Hynes it went in off Tennyson and the refs said that would negate the interference...

What difference does it make who put it in if the goalie has no chance to play the puck? That's ridiculous.

 

[pkbrux]

Can someone just explain what Miles Wood needs to do to get scratched at this point? I just don't get it.

The team was much worse. Lemaire said he'd never seen anything like it.

I actually agree it was a text book pick, but they would have said he was out of his crease and touched the Flyer first so good goal.

We’ll never even know what Lemaire would have to say about this team.

I just hope the end is nigh, but then again, it probably isn’t.

I can't wait to hear what the next guy thinks about this team. Except we'll probably just get another bland personality that speaks in cliche and won't get the real dirt the way Jacques gave us when he didn't give a **** at the end. Maybe if Fitz was the coach, that's the best hope of having a tell it like it is post-mortem.

This isn't as bad as the nadir of the MacLean season YET, in spite of the comparison posted in the coaching thread...but it definitely has the potential to be worse than it by the end of this trip.

Flyers fan, coming in peace. Some comments about this game:

- Simmer looked better in this game than he did all of last year. Maybe he is finally healthy. Please treat him well.
- I've watched 4 Devils games this year, I'd say it definitely looks like you have a serious coaching issue, there's too much talent on this team for them to be this bad and to keep blowing leads.
- Hughes looks enormously talented but seems like he needs to adjust to the fact that everyone in the NHL can skate, too. Obviously it'll help when he puts on a couple pounds, too.

Simmonds has definitely been one of the 3-4 best Devils this year. Of course he (like Hughes) hasn't been around long enough yet to be inflicted with the disease of suck the way just about everyone else who has been here plus Subban has been.

This road trip is going to be an epic disaster

 

[New Jersey]

MacLean team had seven points in first 13 games.

This team has eight in 11, along with fewer wins than in the first 11 in 2010-11.

We’re almost there.

On the road in Carolina with Cory in net? We are going to get f***ing stomped.

Yup and then off to western Canada where have never played very well. Woof.

 

[Emperoreddy]

That was our longest home-stand of the season BTW. We will not have another stretch of home games like that again.

Hynes teams have historically been way worse on the road.

How again does this get better with him at the helm?

10-29-2 on January 9, 2011. that a 44 point pace. 44 points. Over an entire season. Much, much worse, over a longer period of time. While I'm still hopeful, there's no question that if things turn the wrong way this season could deteriorate to what that season was. Right now though, it's not even close.

Probably won't need that long. If Hynes is allowed to coach the entire road trip there's at least a 50-50 chance they come home still stuck on two wins. Three is the absoulte celing I can see right now, with another OT/SO loss for good measure.

 

[JK3]

Couldn't watch the game but just caught the highlights, nice to see NHL Network embrace the blown leads thing prior to the highlight package lmao.

Looked a bit chippy, not sure what to make of the Hall celly, Blackwood looked kinda competent I guess?

The west coast trip of doom might be good for them but it would be a fantastic time to change all the locks before they get back haha.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Need to win 4 of the next 6 me thinks

We're on a 60 point pace right now. Definitely better than that season, but still embarrassing low compared to what the expectations were this year.
