bobilly45 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 The whole teams to blame in this one. Ill give brodeur the 3rd one, but the other 2 were very soft. I really hope lou wakes up and realizes petes an idiot and can dump salvador, even its for a bag of pucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Marty had actually been pretty good lately...5-1-2 with a .920 save% in his last 8 (I posted this in the last GDT thread, and that surprised me too). But I'm not going to lie...I wasn't thrilled to see that he was getting the start in this one. I just wish Pete would let Schneider run with the damned job already. I can't wait for some idiot to talk about how Marty has kept us in it making big saves or some retarded sh!t. This game was over in the first because of Marty. If a 2-0 deficit in the first (with the period ending 2-1) is enough to sink the Devils, then that's not much of a commentary on the Devils' offense. Looking like 1-1-2 on the road trip...NHL .500, it's not sexy, but I'll take it. Hey, there's a goal...not dead yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ELIAS6 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Can't tell if your joking. im not joking at all.. yea he let in three goals and atleast 2 of the three he should have had... but in general the team has scoring issues clearly... again you are not going to be successful with only scoring one goal a game... but on a better note jagr just put us with in reach so lets hope someone can net another and get us to OT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRedStorm Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 you cant put this game on marty.. you're not going to win games by scoring one damn goal a game all the time... thats this teams biggest issue no one scores goals.. And as a team offensively challenged, you can't be playing from behind on the road when your goaltender puts you down 1-0 with a softie.

I really hope lou wakes up and realizes petes an idiot and can dump salvador, even its for a bag of pucks. What? The whole team is to blame? I'm sorry what? We don't score a lot, its not a problem of effort or dedication and hard work, we don't have the talent. We play a system right now that will keep us in tight games, that's the only way we are going to win. Then marty lets in 2 goals in the first like 10min. That is INCREDIBLY deflating, and it forces us to play a type of hockey that isn't suited to our personnel. This loss is on marty 100percent, if you think it's on anyone else then you clearly don't understand the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the difference in this game? Oh the terrible goal tending. Stop talking about lack of scoring, we don't have the skill at forward, we do howfvckingever have a capable goal tender who wasn't playing tonight.

We have a chance in every game when we get good goal tending. That is one of our teams strengths, we just traded for a top 5 goal tender. we are a low scoring team, but what matters is goal differential not how many you score. See my previous post, if marty doesn't let up those 2 bullsh!t goals we win this game 2-1. Edited January 19, 2014 by Sneax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah kind of agree with this. Brodeur sucked tonight on all 3 goals in my opinion. But 1 goal on 34 shots? The BIGGER problem this year has been offense. Guys can't score. Schneider has done a better job masking the problem during his starts by keeping games close and stealing us points. If you're going to complain about soft goals putting pressure on the offense, imagine how the goalies must feel knowing they've got to stop 96% of the shots to get a win.

'7' Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 Shame Brodeur couldn't stop the two first period softies. We might've come away with something this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were maybe 2 difficult saves that marty had to make tonight, cory could have stopped both of them same as broduer. The difference is Corey 99.99999% of the time isn't giving up the 2 softies marty let up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils don't have much margin for error in most games...ain't nothing new. I don't want to put the entire loss on Marty, but at the same time, I have a real hard time understanding why he got the start tonight, even if his numbers over his last 8 GP were solid at a glance.

Agree. Didn't mean YOU were complaining about soft goals. More other posters. Damn ambiguous message boards. I hope Pete realizes that Schneider gives the team the best chance to win and goes with him the bulk of the remaining games. I still think the offence blows but that's been the story all year. At least with hopefully amazing goaltending we can salvage a playoff spot. Tonight was NOT a good night standings-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every starting goal tender in the league makes all the saves marty had to make tonight, with relative ease, outside of maybe 2. I stand by that. Being alert and in position for a goalie shouldn't be hard, and the vast majority of saves marty made today only required that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with hopefully amazing goaltending we can salvage a playoff spot. Tonight was NOT a good night standings-wise. Devils have 18 home games and 12 road games remaining. Schedule doesn't get much more favorable than that. I continue to feel that the Devils have to get to 10 games over NHL .500 to have a shot at the playoffs. Basically, something along the lines of 19-10-1, 18-9-3, 17-8-5, etc. the rest of the way. Probably doesn't happen unless they find a way to win a few shootouts. Schneider hopefully gets at least 20 games (and plays well in most of them), and picks up his shootout play. Devils just aren't going to score consistently enough to offset any extended meh stretches on Schneider's part. Sucks that he'll have to be near-perfect a lot of nights, but he doesn't have much choice. He's probably going to have to be the guy to carry the team into the playoffs.

Sure you could call it that. If I said the penguins were going to make the play offs, that would be guessing to. But you wouldn't question it. You know why? Because their play and their record dictate that they are clearly going to make the playoffs. Schneider's play and his stats this year dictate that he is the far better goalie, and it stands to reason that him being in net results in a more favorable outcome tonight for us. And given that the 2 soft fvcking goals marty let up could be stopped by basically every goalie in the league, I would venture to guess that the top 10 goalie Mr. Schneider would have made those fvcking saves. But I don't know sh!t so what ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
