CarpathianForest Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Can't say I'm on board, but I do know this: Whatever the outcome I'm proudly going to be hanging a Devils banner in my classroom at the beginning of the school year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grcenter47 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearin' about what a great hockey team the Kings have. Screw them! This is your time!! Now go out there and take it! Edited June 3, 2012 by grcenter47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yort44 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 One week from tonight, the Devils will have just finished beating LA yet again and hold a 3-2 lead in this series. Have faith! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revan Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) I stuck with this team all year. I sure as hell ain't giving up now! Plus, I don't watch baseball. What the hell else am I going to do? ... Haha! Well, EURO 2012 in soccer starts in Poland and Ukraine this Friday... All we gotta do to make it a series is win Game 3. This is the series. If we lose, it's over, but a win would pull us within one. Down 2-1 after three games? I've heard that somewhere already... The Devils need to come out swinging on Monday. This is what made them successful in these playoffs: score a goal before your opponents know what hit 'em, add another one for good measure and try to control the play. So far, they haven't been able to do that this series and this might be the key. The Kings haven't faced true pressure this spring, really and they have yet to trail in a SCF game. Time to strike first and see how they manage when it's them who need to tie things up. Edited June 3, 2012 by Revan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hattrick Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Now we will see how resilient and gutty the Devils are. Are they capable of winning the next 4 out 5 games vs the Kings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It ain’t about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. . It's how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done." Game 3 for the Devils is do or die. Time to ante up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullsmasher Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Were in this thing! Even if we split LA we win game 5 and it's 3-2 just where we were against NY!!!! LETS GO DEVILS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas0nMacIsaac Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 They need a spark regardless if they were the better team last night. Tallinder/Larsson should come in place of Harrold. They should try to get Kovalchuk on the 3rd line as well. Parise - Zajac - Zubrus Elias- Henrique - Clarkson Ponikarovki - Josefson - Kovalchuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socbrian Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 All we really need to do is Hit the Darn Net. Never seen us miss the net as much. btw if the announcer try to analyze how to score on quick again I'm flip. Thank god were back on NBC sports for game 3. Less commercials, feel like every-time we start buzzing in their end, we have to see Peggy.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilMinder Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 How anyone could give up already is beyond belief. The object of our dreams is 4 games away still, it has been a long road to just sit down and watch the Kings take it. The Devils have won four in a row before, and they will do it again. DEVILS!

NJDevs4978 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) Well they already won four in a row against the Flyers and four out of five against the Rangers...either one would do the trick now. Edited June 3, 2012 by NJDevs4978 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capo Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 In '03 the Devils won the first two then lost games 3 and 4. The defensemen have cost them dearly so far... Both Larsson and Tallinder need to be in game 3. Harrold and Salvador should be out. Harrold is easy but Sal will never come out. The D can't make a proper decision with the puck in their own end or keep up with anyone. It's dumb to have their two most mobile D sitting on the sideline. They can absolutely win this. This situation isn't as dire as 2000 against the Flyers. But to do it the D has to be changed. They are in a luxury where they can actually do it.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Still believin'...Devils may be down 2-0, but I honestly believe they have nothing to be ashamed of...they haven't been perfect, but they haven't played badly, and haven't had the best of puck luck. I'm bummed that they've lost two games, but I've rarely found myself getting pissed about individual performances...I'll admit that I wouldn't ordinarily have much faith in a team that had just lost two home games and now has to win at least two road games to win the Cup, but I do think this group has a chance to pull it off.

Devs3cups Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 After watching the game yesterday, honestly, I was thinking this series was over. But after remembering what this team has accomplished during these playoffs, I said to myself that it can't be over. Gamer are tight, devils will come out strong in game 3!! GO DEVILS!!!!

lazer Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) if any team can do it, this one can. just worried about injuries. anyone can grunt one out, we need 4. Edited June 3, 2012 by lazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HellOnICE Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I just want them to get the pucks on net. I'm so sick of this team passing up shot opportunities. It's fvcking infuriating to watch. Kings are good, Devils have been just OK. Tallinder will come in next game, wouldn't mind seeing Larsson too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdjlc Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 i still believe. they have done it in the past in 2000 being down 3-1. the veterans better step up and be heard Let's Go Devils. I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 No doubt game three is huge now and might decide the series. We have won three games in a row during the playoffs against the rags and four games in a row against Philly. We can do the same against the kings. I hope Deboer at least switches up the forward combos a little bit. It seemed like we got a little bit of offensive spark again towards the end with kovy and parise on the same line. Clarkson and kovy have to be playing hurt. No other explanation for the way they are playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 When I doubt them, they have proven me wrong, so I'm doubting them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeCups Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 It is just painful to lose 2-1 in OT in consecutive games. We could just as easily be up 2-0. A split would have been great...but down 0-2 and heading to LA?!? Gonna be tough to win both there... Let's just take Game 1 and go from there. I think we outplayed the Kings for the majority of both games, but the only thing that matters is how many pucks we get past Quick. I hope we come out shooting from everywhere and get a couple past Quick early to shut their crowd up! LET'S GO DEVILS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucifersDog Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 The round lady hasn't even started to the microphone. Either we start scoring or stopping the soft goals. Not blaming Marty he has stopped some great shots but the rebounds are too many and the soft goal a game doesn't help. Last night he should have had both of those shots and we should have scored some of the open net goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitico12 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I would be worried if we were outplayed outright. That hasn't been the case thus far. We just can't go out and lay an egg in the Staples Center. Changes I would make for game 3: 1. Larsson has to play (replacing Harrold) 2. In an extreme move, maybe throw Hedberg in net to "jump" the team a little bit. Revert back to 1995 when Terreri did the same in Boston... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
