They better keep trouba in his lane tonight or we could have a bad time. They’re going to try to slow us down by being physical.
I'm not buying the idea that they can dominate our guys physically like that. We don't have a Trouba but we've got plenty of toughness up front. But yeah, keep your head up around Trouba.

Love Dawson even more now. Wish I could apologize personally to him for the fans who sell to the highest bidder.
LGD!!
There's gonna be a LOT of that. Unfortunately. But it's to be expected.

There's a beauty to the way they played defense. With the NHL on a short break, I've been watching the NBA, and no NBA team plays defense like UConn did. There might be rules preventing that kind of defense, I don't know, I'm not an expert on it.

They were dead to me the same day.
They were never great but I do miss the Coleman/Petrovic teams. I wanted one of those tie-dye Coleman jerseys so bad when I was a kid but they were never really available for sale back then.
My first NBA game was Nets-Celtics in 1984. The Nets were decent back then, but Larry Bird and company destroyed them. Those Nets were led by Otis Birdsong and Buck Williams. And Darryl Dawkins, who the fans loved.

Plus-41 for a forward who has 19 goals is excellent. Tatar may not be a finisher, but as we could see, he was very effective at both ends of the ice.

Sorry guys but if you folks don't think Luke should be playing the last 2 games, I think you're all nuts.
There is a strong possibility that there will be an injury of some kind in the playoffs on D, and if that happens, Luke is playing, because no chance would they seriously play Smith over him.
Hell I think you can make an argument to play him in the playoffs if he impresses in those two games anyway, but yeah he should be playing these final 2 so if he has to go in, he has some game experience.
Will he make possible mistakes, maybe, will he also be the most dynamic defenseman this team has seen in two decades, yes, yes he for sure will be the second he steps on the ice.
I think he should play in both regular season games remaining.

Phil Housley had that reputation as a “bad team” defenseman too. It’s important to remember that these types of players are so good on the power play and that doesn’t show up in plus-minus. But Housley was one-dimensional and I suppose Karlsson is as well.

I love the hit on Pastrnak at the end.

Oh look, Messier is going back to the “PK doesn’t have a cup” well again.
Could he be any more of a dick?

Is that interference?

A team SHOULD NOT have to play back to back games where the opening face offs are less than 24 hours apart.
No excuse for that.
Back to backs with significant travel, too.

SHOOT THE PUCK! I've been saying it all night. Shooter is open, he passes it to a player who isn't.

I actually think Dano is calling this one pretty accurately. He’s not happy with this defense one bit.
Yeah, I agree, I was just trying to be clever.

Sorokin could definitely steal a series. Still rather draw them than the Rags now.
Yeah it's Sorokin, the tight checking and the physical play.

This game is so painfully boring, then you add in Dano reading their eulogy already and I could be asleep real quick
If Dano is boring, try Butch Goring.

If we have to play this team in the first round, maybe I don't want to win the division.

That was kinda embarrassing. Palmieri skating circles!

He did get an assist in his last game. Maybe that gets his offense going a little.
And what a nifty little pass that was to Jack. It was nice when the Devils had that third line going with Palat, Boqvist and Haula. These lines never last long. Lindy likes line juggling as we all know.

If Fitz is only gonna get a 7th for him I'd rather they just put him through waivers, nobody is gonna claim him anyway.
Yeah, where's the risk? Even if someone claims Blackwood, where's the risk?
The risk is having to play him!

I don't agree with this decision. It's April, not January, and one guy has played his way on the squad and the other hasn't. Seems simple to me.

He could definitely turn out to be something.
That'd be pretty cool. The odds are against it but you never know.

Dammit, Canes banked a point. They bank the second and I’m pretty much giving up on the Devils winning the Metro. Even if the Canes don’t snag that second point, I just can’t see the Devils having much of a shot without getting a ton of help from unlikely sources.
Yeah, can't disagree.

3-3 in the third. As we’ve seen a A LOT this season, two-goal leads are far from a sure thing these days. Teams come back from them all the time.
The only good thing about that is they played Brass Bonanza two more times. It's Hartford Whalers Day.

That's pretty funny that a couple people said Kappo Kakko would be a first-line player on NJ.

I'm still a believer in Tyce Thompson but he needs to take a big step next season.
