The end of a miserable march to nowhere. This is the last time to cheer on the Devils till September.

 

@TGfireandice 12m12 minutes ago

Looks like Reid Boucher in and Stefan Matteau out tonight.

 

Al Montoya will start for Panthers tonight vs. Cory Schneider for the Devils.

 

No Jon Merrill for the Devils' morning skate. so it looks like Peter Harrold will be in tonight.

 

Only reason to win tonight is for pride (and shifting FLA's draft order)....

Lets go Devils!

Why sit Matteau...makes zero sense

It does make zero sense, UNLESS the plannis to send him back to Albany and hope for a playoff run there.

While it makes no sense to sit him, whether he plays a meaningless game today ultimately doesn't matter. Doesn't matter if we win, lose, etc., and one more game of NHL experience won't make or break his career.

That being said, I want him on the team next year, barring some insane set of circumstances by which we acquire a brand new top 6 and guys like Elias, Zajac, etc. move fown to the third and fourth lines where they belong.

Trying to see if Zubrus will pan out as the 1st line winger we all hope he is. I hope to see 20+ minutes from Zubrus and Fraser tonight to determine whether or not to give them 1st line / 1st pairing minutes next year. Fingers crossed.

 

I feel like somehow you might be being sarcastic here, but I've been wrong before.

Makes zero sense and there is no UNLESS, Albany played last night, plays tonight and tomorrow. If they gave a rats ass about Albany's chances they could of retuned him for the three in three. Not playing him tonight so an older stiff can play is just typical of this GM and staff. Although I would bet all lineup calls are made by Fester.
