After watching the half hearted performances of the last couple of seasons I really wasn't expecting much from this season. But I have to say I'm really enjoying it. Hynes really has to take a lot of credit for organising this team so well & motivating them. Great win today even though the performance wasn't as good as it has been previously. LGD.

Schneider looks shaky right now, but he started off slow last year too, so I'm not worried yet.

 

Pretty harsh; one bad goal in 9 games. And absolute lights-out play in most of those 9 games. Also, he's seeing the shootout chances better and puts us in a better spot early in the shootouts we've done. First shootout chance was always his Achilles Heel last year.

He gave up an awful goal in Philly.

I wasn't there, but the announced attendance was less than 12,000 which is horrible IMO.

 

The Mets just got done playing World Series games into the month of November.. something they haven't done in 15 years. This is a huge part why the attendance has been poor thus-far. Even the iles (who finished the season at 95% capacity last year) are at 75% capacity this season, barely averaging 12k, in an arena that holds nearly 16k. Alot of Met fans share devs\iles ties. Shoot, I know several Met fans that tell me: "I haven't really even gotten into football yet, let alone hockey" --I wouldn't get overly concerned with the attendance over these next two months. Between the weather and the holidays, the Devils rarely have good numbers for November & December.

If Lou were still here then I'd think he's being "Matvichuk"-ed....

 

It seems like his knee is really messed-up  and/or it takes a 39-year old very long to heal.

 

How is it that only if Lou were here would you think that?  Elias is hardly the player that Matvichuk was when it happened, he has been a career Devil that has been so at an extremely high level and we are no where near cap hell.  Can't it just be that Elias has a bad knee instead of bashing Lou some more?

The Islanders attendance has more to do with the Barclays being sh!t then the mets games.

And the fact that a lot of their fans in Long Island are pissed and don't want to travel to Brooklyn. Not saying all of them, but I have no problem believing that a couple thousand people who would go to a bunch of games if they were close by might only go to one or two now.

And the Mets didn't take away attendance from the Devils. Sucking donkey balls the past two years did.

So are we invading Barclays tomorrow or what?

 

I'll be there, Section 222, Row 18. I know there are a decent amount of Devils fans checking out that corner (221-222); there are a lot on StubHub, for cheap, and there's no obstructed view.
