The way I'm looking at it right now every bounce went the Devils way for over a month. Yesterday everything went against us. They were bound to lose at some point though I wasn't hoping for a 6-0 ass kicking. I don't want to use the week layoff as a excuse but they looked like they were skating in slow motion yesterday and couldn't connected a pass if their lives depended on it. I honestly can't remember one quality scoring chance they had. I expect a much tougher Devils team tomorrow night. Maybe a good ass kicking is just what they needed to prove to themselves they aren't invincible. I'm not worried yet, that will change however with a Game 2 loss.
