sammyk Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I liked what St. Louis said about playing with Marty and not against him. I'm not going to read anything into Neids speech, it was great. He's a Jersey boy.Sammy here's the thread where Mel Brodeur's pic is: http://njdevs.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12436 Yah, I've seen those before, and I think those are her worst pics to be honest. She seems manly or something in them. She looked much better in earlier pics. That and I HATE it when women tie their hair back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizDevil30 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Damn, just got time to sit down and watch the TV and missed everything. Was the nieds speech that bad? The speech was not bad. It was the longest I think. He thanked everyone. You know if he didn't thank Lou and the organization for all the great years, memories, etc you'd all say that was a sign that he was unhappy with the team and was hitting the road.

sammyk Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 That's what it kinda sounded like to me, Sammy. Yah it sound very "It's been nice, you were great, see ya!" Don't you look at me that way missy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, I think Tortorella thanked every single person in the City of Tampa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizDevil30 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I remember at the SC celebration last year, McKenzie saying how great it was to play in NJ and it was a great place to live and then next we hear he's off to Nashville. Rheume wanted to finish his career in Jersey and well he was gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msweet Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Nieds' speech was terrific... he was articulate, he was deliberate and gracious. He specifically thanked his agent Meehan.... a message to Lou. It was the best speech of the night. It sounded like it was professionally written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyBlueFish203 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Congratulations to all the winners. The awards seemed a bit "dressed-down" compared to last year, but I like this years' more because everyone I expected and wanted to win, did win. Right off the bat a big congratulations to Kris Draper. The league has acknowledged his hard work. He's the guy who gives the team more than a 100% every night. Slowly but surely, the Red Wings are becoming Draper's team. I loved his acknowledgement of Kirk Maltby; these two are going to be terrific for Team Canada come August. Congrats to Scott Niedermayer for his 1st Norris trophy. So pleased he won. He had an unbelievable season. He does need a haircut, though. Congrats to John Torterella for winning the Jack Adams. He's an awesome coach. I loved his speech, too. I expected Marty to win the Vezina and I'm happy he did because he's been jipped a few times. Also congrats to the Devils on the Jennings. Jarome - he was great. King Clancy AND the Richard trophy. Too bad Ilya couldn't make it, man he would've had some classic speech in store. Midgy - wow. Art Ross, Hart and the Pearson - first guy since Gretzky to win all three. Loved the little wink Marty Brodeur gave him when he mentioned he was looking forward to playing with him come August. And his teammate Brad Richards. Richards looked a bit tired, eh? All that travelling probably getting to him. Well, congrats to all the winners and nominees again. 'Twas a good season.

Pepperkorn Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I remember at the SC celebration last year, McKenzie saying how great it was to play in NJ and it was a great place to live and then next we hear he's off to Nashville. Rheume wanted to finish his career in Jersey and well he was gone. so Nieds says thanks for the memories and he stays (I've got to find my Mary Sunshine smilie!) I'm happy for Nieds and Marty... but you know.. it's ME here so I have kind of a little teeny kicked inthe gut feeling too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I, too, was VERY put off by the Niedermayer speech. "It's been a good 12 years, it's been fun" The s's in there means "has" as in past tense, as in over. "It is been a good 12 years, it is been fun" doesn't make any sense. ----------------------- The other thing that turned my stomache was that he thanked Meehan first and foremost over Lou. Add in the "Thanks to the Devils organizations. There have been a lot of good times, but there have also been a lot of rough times." A POSITIVE way of putting that would be "There have been a lot of rough times, but there have also been a lot of good times". Maybe it's semantics, but Niedermayer sounded like he wanted out of Jersey (I do it too, am I an honourary resident?) ASAP, while Iginla sounded like he wanted to stay with the Flames until they have to put him in a nursing home..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msweet Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Nah.... he's a RFA.... he's gonna play here... and his 3 kids are not moving out of the excellent school system he's in. He was just helping his negotiations...that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmCanadian27 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I think you are reading into Nieds' speech WAY too much. Can't someone be thankful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Let's remember one thing here, we just saw this article today that said Nieds had 'rejected' a contract so naturally everyone's going to take everything he says in the negative tense. Like LizDevil said, if his acceptance speech was short the grumbling would be ah he's unhappy Sometimes you can outsmart yourself when you try to read too much into things.

FunkyBlueFish203 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 One thing I was not pleased with: Markus Naslund making the 1st All Star team as the left-wing and not Ilya Kovalchuk. I thought Kovalchuk had the better season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Kovalchuk had the better season. Nasland was more consistant. If Kovalchuk had a 2nd half like his 1st half, he'd have walked away with half of tonight's awards.

Yeah, I saw her at a game and she's pretty thin. http://www.newjerseydevils.com/2004/html/c...atdrive2004.php I'm pretty sure that's her in the second picture.

I see the gripe but Don's right -- and somehow Naslund feels more right - well like Don said consistant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
