    Why I Still Prefer the Meadowlands over Prudential Center

    in Hell

    Posted

    Honestly I miss parking at CAA, because it was in the swamp they just had their lot, and the cattle tunnel... it was a fun experience.    Parking now in Newark is always a crapshoot for me.  I don't go enough to get a routine for it, so when I do go... it's trying to find an open lot or parralel park in a tight spot with my pickup.

    The CAA sucked for amenities and the fan experience.   Agreed, I miss Baumann from 2000; but that was 20 years ago.    I don't blame the Rock for it as much as father time.

    Remember how unlucky we were to land 2 “low end #1’s” 

    Well those take’s certainly aged like milk. :lol:

    In context, Matthews and McDavid were drafted the two previous drafts.  They were going to be impactful players always, but not generational players.  I think that’s still fair to say about Hischier (who I love).   Hughes?  There are nights he looks like the best player in the NHL.

    Hischier was compared to as a cross geteeen Datsyuk offensively and Zetterberg/Toews defensively.  He started the draft projects at the end of the first and shot up…  We had to decide to skip over the safe pick of Nolan Patrick to do so.

    Hughes was compared to Kane (who himself thought Hughes was better than him).  That time we had to stay steadfast and NOT select the riser in Kakko…  glad we did both.

    The streak is impressive, mostly because the Devils are getting every bounce and winning every game by the skin of their teeth. 

    but...  Ok, I mean we're only +26 which is a paltry 2nd in the league in goal differential

    This Devils team goes as far as MacKenzie Blackwood takes them. 

    I mean...   I guess that's true if you mean we'll only go as far down as Blackwood drags us as 2 of our 3 losses were with Blackwood in net.    
    I'll ignore, since they are, the injury and him last playing November 3rd.

    It would be unlikely for the streak to continue, consider how many big scoring chances the Devils give up every game. 

    I mean NHL Network had an infographic showing just how stout the Devils defense has been, leading the league in several situations.
    But, stats are for nerds.  (I'm too lazy to find it, but they were talking about how Dano has his shoulder back, chest puffed out, proud of the team)

    The Senators were a Claude Giroux crossbar away from “dominating” this hockey game. 

    Let's give them that goal.    Scoreboard now reads 5-2...   So pretty dominating loss by the Sens still.

    And my favorite…… when the challenge reversed the call and took a Devils goal off the board, “this feels like the time for Ottawa to pounce. New Jersey isn’t quite used to seeing bounces go the other way.” 

    This team finally had to face adversity.   Since they get every bound and never do goals come off the board....
