oofrostonoo Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) So this morning the Devils official twitter tweeted out asking followers to help Mattaeu to 3,000 followers... I thought no big deal, he's just a prospect. Then a few minutes ago @BryceSalvador was being promoted by the NHL. Maybe Bryce had a Twitter account written into his 3 year contract? This is a slippery slope Lou! Edited July 11, 2012 by oofrostonoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aylbert Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Does Elias have a new twitter? He posted during the season in '09, but hasn't posted a thing since then. (@pelias - verified) Edited July 11, 2012 by aylbert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 There are a bunch of Devils' prospects who have one (and who had one before they were drafted). I suspect it's a recognition of the new media world, but like ZGF said, I wouldn't be surprised if they all go dark when training camp starts.

devilsrule33 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 There are a bunch of Devils' prospects who have one (and who had one before they were drafted). I suspect it's a recognition of the new media world, but like ZGF said, I wouldn't be surprised if they all go dark when training camp starts. Prospects and AHL players have always had them. Remember Mike McKenna broke the news he was being called up late in the night and the next morning his twitter account was gone? A lot of professional athletes get in trouble with twitter, but if educated properly it's an incredible marketing tool for organizations. Not that I see Bryce Salvador's twitter being all that exciting. Probably being used in connection with some business he is part owner of. Here's hoping to a few more twitter accounts popping up.

devilsrule33 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Tom Gulitti @TGfireandice Many of you asked me today about @brycesalvador. It is his official Twitter account, but says he has no plans to post on it. Brilliant. Edit: Tom Gulitti @TGfireandice @brycesalvador said he established the account because people were posting on imposter accounts in his name and he wanted to end that.

Coorslight Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Apparently, no, it hasn't changed. From his GF's twitter account... Alexe @AlexeAudetThis is stefan matteau.

thefiestygoat Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Its a bit weird they made Matteau get off twitter, a lot of the prospects drafted the past 2 years have them and are active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Its a bit weird they made Matteau get off twitter, a lot of the prospects drafted the past 2 years have them and are active. Yeah unless he committed a Lou no-no...or they're thinking of signing him right off. Wedgewood had to ditch his twitter shortly before the Devils signed him. And if people still wonder why Lou's such a Twitter Nazi, just look at the Janssen thread. Twitter makes it even more tempting for people to say something stupid or easier to say something that gets misconstrued.

Coorslight Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Its a bit weird they made Matteau get off twitter, a lot of the prospects drafted the past 2 years have them and are active. I also find it odd too. Even the Devils twitter account was trying to get him to 3k followers. It almost seems as soon as he got 3k followers a few hours later...boom gone. I highly doubt Lou got on the phone and told him to shut it down. Dude is 2+ years away from a NHL career. Makes no sense. Also weird no explanation when he posted that from his GF's acct.
