Avs look slow, Devils look fast, best case scenario is starting the second down by one.

Lame. Whats the reason why?

Let me know if you see one in this period
Easily. And that MacKinnon line looks like a hot mess right now, especially MacKinnon who just missed a few clears and looks so out of place on the PK

We don't exactly have that much winger depth to spread around MacK, Duchene and Jost.
Put Duchene on wing and let him take faceoffs on his strong side.

Duchene has never worked on wing.

Captain Does Nothing with his typical "look busy" shift

That wasn't a bad shift by Yak and Kerfoot.

He looked horrific in the d-zone. He was "covering" a guy already covered, pass still goes through him to the point to the guy he SHOULD be covering.

He's terrible and I hope to god Sakic trades him while there's any value left. He's falling off faster than Dustin Brown.
Real talk: I think the Devils are going to be significantly better than most people are expecting this year. Schneider should have a bounce back season, and all those young kids are going to have a big impact. I think they're probably about a year away from being a legit playoff threat.

The puck didn't even pass the goal line for icing.
Edit: Okay they put it at center.

I'd rather keep Duchene 10 times over than Landeskog.
We'll take one Landeskog

5 firsts and a hug
Green isn't sticking with one line-up. He was very vocal about how he will change the line-up and change the line combos to counter individual teams.
He wouldn't divulge specifically why Boeser won't play. The bubble players are Boeser, Virtanen, Burmistrov, and Dorsett. Virtanen is faster and more physical than Boeser. Dorsett is more physical as well and will be playing on the shutdown McDavid line. Granlund who would be our third centre is on the other wing of the shutdown McDavid line because he's fast so we needed Burmistrov at centre.
At least that's what my thinking would be.

Landeskog was such a good prospect before he started. But from what I have seen he just didnt develop and he io so mistake prone. Just makes such dumbass moves at times.
Dude needs to be traded for real. Preferably within the Central so the Wild can continue to take advantage of all the penalties he commits.

If we can't don't burn a year, send him down.
edit: you didn't answer my 2nd jersey question, where did you get it from and it's 100% stitched authentic right?

Keeping our youth up and not playing is dumb and something willie would have done. Yeah don't throw them to the wolves but they got to learn and get exp sometime. This bs that we have to pretend like we have a chance to win every night or make the playoffs is laughable. I mean don't be shit in purpose sure but give be the kids a chance to grow plz.

Everyone leave Barrie alone.

If Bednar had any balls he'd bench Landeskog and Barrie. You want to change the culture of this team? Start with the laziest. And that means keeping Soderberg scratched too.
Barrie had the best two chances in the first though... I'd start with Landeskog and MacK if you really want to send a message. Duchene showed up to play. MacKinnon? What's his excuse. Bednar pulled him aside yesterday and they had like a 10 minute talk.
Unhandled Exception

Yeah but it's nothing new with Barrie. He vanishes on defense every fucking game and I'm tired of it. He doesn't score often enough to warrant putting up with it.

This team loses all puck handling ability once the PP starts.
