The entire Crash Line should go in the ring. They were legendary in '95.

I feel like this team is made for regular season success and not necessarily built for a long playoff run, bad goaltending not withstanding. I'm not telling anyone that making the devils more physical makes them better but I really don't want to see our captain getting run on with no answers anymore either. I'm not looking for a waste of space like Reaves either, those days are over. I actually hoped the Devils would sign Colton in the offseason. And I liked Gudas too because I was hoping the team would get a little more physical. Zadorov would be a good start.

Let's Go Devils! I love and hate the fact that this team has some expectation this season, I hope I can enjoy it. My football season is already over as a Giants fan. Though thanks to the past few seasons of Devils ineptitude I've grown fond of talking about draft position and prospects so early in the season. Hate the 7:30 start too. I need the season to start now.

I haven't yet but I will. I'm going to wait until we get closer to the regular season, unless they air all of the pre season games. Then I'll sign up sooner. I created an account I just haven't signed up yet. The quality is going to have to be super sh!tty to get me to even think about going back to FUBO.

FUBO cost a lot of money for me since I only needed it for the devils. I think high speed internet is needed. And it's always in HD This year my kid said we can get msg+ as an app for $30/mth which is what I think I'm doing this season.

I'd be perfectly happy seeing him start the season on the third line with Haula and Palat. Two veterans who I think can do the dirty work to help Holtz shine. What does the bottom six look like without him? Haula/Palat/Lazar/McCleod?/Tierney/Bastian/Foote/Nosek

My son was hoping the Devils could pick up Hathaway. But I think we can find someone like that around the trade deadline if we need it. Maybe Lazar can fill that role even though he brings no Offense.

I believe we still have Lazar too. And my kid is telling me Clarke should get a serious look.

I feel the same way about the rags. Their rebuild started earlier than ours (and was aided by all those douches that would only play under NY's bright lights) and I think right now they are in the middle of "win now" mode whereas NJ is just starting their run. That's what makes this win even sweeter. The rags wasted this season. And with this playoff experience and the kids we have coming up our run can last a while. I think the future rags will only go as far as Laf/Kakko can take them because beyond them there's not a lot of young forward talent coming up in their system and their big names are getting older. Or maybe I'm just still high off of last night.

Piss off NY! What a great turning point for the franchise this season. Making the playoffs was great but beating that team is almost like winning the cup. So proud of this team. I can now happily watch the playoffs again.

I don’t have the line ups in front of me but I think we could still shore up that third line and while I don’t think we need to add any defense (especially if Hughes gets a shot) I wouldn’t mind adding someone like Gudas for the 5/6 spot in our defense. A little knuckle dragging for a rough playoff series possibly against the rags would be nice to have. And I believe he’s in the last year of his contract. But if we’re done making moves I’m ok with that. Meier is a big get.

oops

Yeah we didn't put much thought into the monetary aspect of it. I just hate seeing Tatar on that top line and now reading that Johnsson got the call up is disheartening. That's why I'm wondering if we can still get a top six winger for Seves.

Palat's injury and Holtz's failure to nail down a spot really show how little depth we have for a decent top 6. I wonder if it would be better to maybe see what we can get for Severson now instead of waiting as the season goes on since I think we all agree he won't be back. I think it would be tougher to trade him later on if we are in a playoff spot or close to it. I was talking to a friend of mine last night and he said he hoped we could somehow pull a Holtz for Meier trade. I don't know how realistic that is or if SJ would even look to move him. If we traded Seves I would love to get some kind of power forward not that I even have a name to give though. I'm assuming Bahl and Okhotyuk can step in on the third line. I'm pretty happy with the way they've been playing and I don't think they need to wait until March to make a move if we can.
