Jaxtile Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I went to bed halfway through that oilers Jets game. I had quite the surprise when I woke up.If Winnipeg's power play dosn't suck, Buff plays consistently (I was ready to turf him at the end I last season), and our 2nd and 3rd lines do more than kill time this year (which I think is likely) the Jets should make the playoffs.Win the cup? No way. Boston, Vancouver or Chicago would ram us into a crippled mess.But a couple years from now when our rookies fill out? Watch out!Should be good hockey this (Full!) season regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuseprime Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Wow...awesome pass off the boards. I can't believe believe the Devils let Grabner through for the score. There was nothing Marty could do in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the maid of woodlynne Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Devils look a lot less scattered tonight. Hope they can pull it together and get a win. Big save by Marty on Grabner's breakaway. \m/ETA: I really hate the shootout...ETA2: 6 rounds... Tip my hat to Moulson - he nailed the shot.

Jaxtile Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Jesus Winnipeg is mauling the kings.Kings outshot jets something like 15-7 in the first but it's 4-1 now with 9:00 left in the third.Kane sent one in without looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonblade Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 A pretty impressive Jets win against the Kings last night. I'm liking our rookies so far (mind you it's only been two games), especially the 19 year old, Trouba. I've been hearing so much about this kid, and by improving every game, from preseason to now, he's starting to look like the real deal. Who knows, he may end up this year's Erik Karlsson.

Jabronius Maximus Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 Gah this is painful to watch. The Devils are straight up outworking the Oil. And I knew the Oilers defense would be a bit of a liability, but it is just horrendous right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Stark Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 It's still really early for any observations with real weight, but man its fun to be in the East at last. Also, Howard has looked very sharp so far. Mostly I just felt like telling everyone I get to play in a game against the Red Wing Alumni team later this month. :smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuseprime Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 What the hell?! I just switched over form my Jets (of NY) to watch the Devil's post game and they're in OT?! ETA: Wow...My Devils are not going to be in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the maid of woodlynne Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 That was one hell of a spectacular collapse. :bang:Will. Not. Panic. Nope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I especially wanted the Devils to have a good year, and make a deep run considering it could be Marty's last season. If they do miss the playoffs, that would be a horrible way to end such a great career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biter Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I especially wanted the Devils to have a good year, and make a deep run considering it could be Marty's last season. If they do miss the playoffs, that would be a horrible way to end such a great career. For statistical purposes, Marty should have retired near the end of last season. Not because he's bad, but as far as I can remember, the team went on a short losing streak after his 666th regular season win... :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skadhi Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Normally I'm a raving hockey fan, but my beloved Pens have fallen by the wayside because of the Pirates. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Devils 0-1-3. Im starting to wonder how the new owners will react if this continues, could DeBoer be out? Or even Lamoriello? A Devils team without Lamoriello as GM, would feel as weird as one without Brodeur in goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabronius Maximus Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 Joe Thornton just dropped the quote of the year in an interview with the Vancouver Province: Thornton provided an R-rated answer when asked how he would celebrate if he were to score four goals in a single game like rookie teammate Hertl did Tuesday.-"I'd have my c--- out if I scored four goals. I'd have my c--- out, stroking it," Thornton said.:D I hope he never scores 4 in a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord O' Bones Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Another Devils fan, right on! I hope they start strong, and get some much needed scoring from Ryder and Clowe, to help fill the void of Kovalchuck and Clarkson being gone.Ryan may not score as much as you'd like, but he definitely does SOMETHING interesting every tilt. He reminds me of a young Owen Nolan. "Yeah I can score motherfucker, but right now I'll take 5 to punch you in the face." I was sad to see him go. Heh, Sean McIndoe wrote a preview for Grantland where he broke the teams up into four groups (I guess in honor of the new realignment) - Cup contenders, disasters, better-than-you-think teams, and I-have-no-idea teams. His ceiling for the Devils was winning the Stanley Cup, and his floor was worst team in the league. I enjoyed that.Link please? It's still really early for any observations with real weight, but man its fun to be in the East at last. Also, Howard has looked very sharp so far.

(I forgot his name.) The girls were all over him. Bastard. Joe Thornton just dropped the quote of the year in an interview with the Vancouver Province: :D I hope he never scores 4 in a gameDon't worry. That will never happen. 6 assists? Sure. 4 goals, no fucking way. Phenomenal player. But a total pussy when it comes to shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabronius Maximus Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 I'll be at the game tonight, Not expecting to win. Toronto has looked strong as hell and The Preds have looked mediocre. Well looks like the Preds did get thrashed. Thing about the Leafs is they always seem to get out shot, yet find a way to win. I don't know if they can hold that up, but they look damn good and I don't have much hope for the Oilers on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
