Not saying that both didn't suck...just that in 2006, it wasn't some choke job...Devils were down 3-0 in that series before you could blink. In 2009...well, we know how quickly that fell apart.
That 2006 loss was hard to take because of how hard it crashed. We didn't choke it away but personally, I found it harder to accept than the 2009 Game 7 debacle.

In 2006, the Devils simply ran out of steam after getting on that insane roll to close out the regular season and sweep the Rangers...they didn't choke in losing in 5 to the Canes. You're thinking of 2009.
They’re both bad! Nic Wallin, Eric Staal, pick your poison. Staal killed us both years.

Yes, I'll get my extra alcohol from a Belgian brew like Allagash White.

Give me Schmid
It's a good bet that Schmid is in for Game 3.

Jerrydevil, still think my 2022 Mets comparison was premature? Sigh
No, you nailed it. Will we win a game like the Mets did?

That was the last thing I wanted to see. Krappo Kappo get a goal.
You gotta admit. The guy plays with men.
You could take that a couple different ways, I guess! But what I mean is that the Rangers are men. The Devils are boys. It hurts to see it. -

Who wants to pay Jesper Bratt a penny more than the 5.45 per season he’s making right now? His best parts of this series have been when he’s been absolutely invisible
Now do Timo.

This is the learning curve. It sucks that it's happening against the Rangers. Many, many posters in here didn't want the Rangers as a matchup for this very reason.
Let's see what the third period looks like. I want to be a fly in the Devil locker room to hear what Nico and Jack have to say.-

In other words, they are better
Yeah, the truth hurts.
We're one goal away from Akira Schmid.

Does it matter?
I guess it really doesn't. The result is the same .... not good hockey.

They are just beyond scared
I wouldn't say scared, I would say flustered.

This game is done
It ain't done but they have to find their game somehow. It's too much of a Chinese fire drill out there.

I know we're winning but I'm a little concerned. A bit too ragged and thankfully Vitek wasn't beaten.

There's just no need to take that penalty. Dumb.

Graves isn't physical enough. Severson maybe. Siegenthaler maybe. Would be great to see Bahl develop in this role. The guy is 6'6" and has shown to have a mean streak at times. Anyway, Bastian is the most physical player out of all of them despite not being a defenseman. That's why I listed his name. We need grit badly.
During the season Marino was often down low with Kreider on the penalty kill but did not play him physically from what I remember.

This absolutely needs to be addressed. We allowed too much traffic in front of Vanacek, and we didn’t generate nearly enough traffic in front of Shesterkin.
It’s a defenseman’s job and yes it needs to be addressed

The refs suck, re: the Boston-Florida game. LET THEM FIGHT!

Tonight's game gave me serious 2022 Mets in October vibes
I didn't get that vibe! This felt like one bad game to me but talk to me if the Devils turn in a stinker in Game 2.

If tonite was a true reflection of the disparity between the NJ defense and the NYR forecheck, this series will be over in a blink, and deservedly so.
I don't think it is a true reflection, I'm not willing to give the Rangers that much credit. I also think that the Devils have the capability of coming at the Rangers in waves, rolling four lines and dominating at even strength.
Or, we could get swept and bow out meekly. That would be surprising and disappointing.
Fortunes can change quickly in the playoffs, and what was true one game might not be so in the next.
If we lose Game 2 (looking too far ahead, I know), we could see Schmid and we could see Luke Hughes, too. I'm guessing Lindy won't do too much different in Game 2, but I could see Brendan Smith in for Bahl or Miles Wood being replaced. Benching Graves would be pretty drastic.-

Why feel bad for people in attendance?
Just because they didn't get their money's worth and the tickets are very expensive, that's all.

I think you've got to let it play out before you call for the coach's head. It's Game 1. However, I do feel for fans that ponied up big bucks to watch that in person.

Shades of 2018 all over again. I really expected more out of this team.
I wouldn't go all Stefan Noesen on the Devils yet.
