Derlique Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 NJ loss is good Buffalo with a big win WPG needs to get back in the win column Carolina with a point If Vancouver can get something vs. Pitt that'd be swell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 Weird, the Devils went to Colorado and Arizona and they're not in the playoff race. CAR: 0 BUF: -1 WPG, DET, DAL, VAN: -3 NJD: -6 ARI: -11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antiquated Colorado Rockie Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 If you are a tanking fan this was a euphoric road trip, it doesn't get much better than losing to Colorado and Arizona. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to hide my pleasure from the result of this road trip. I mean, listen.. maybe pleasure isn't the right word, I hate when the Devils lose. But everyone here knows my take on the tanking thing, and this trip was HUGE in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I've been playing around with nhllotterysimulator.com a lot lately. Being third-worst seems to yield a top 3 pick about 50% of the time, and would probably be more if not for Vegas coming in with the same odds (but with the fact that we will probably try to snipe away some players that Anaheim or Tampa can't protect, I don't mind it). I hate watching games like the Colorado one (and the first period of last night's game), but moving up in draft position with a significant chance at 1st overall is an okay consolation. As a lot have been saying, we really badly need top bottom out at least once and get some top tier talent, may as well be now. Sucks that we don't have our own third round pick, but having Colorado's cancels that out. Thanks Eric Gelinas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven M. Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 So, we won a game, which was nice, and had some results go our way too. Particularly the DET AZ game with DET winning in a shootout. So we're still in 28th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 Haha, I was watching that Detroit-Arizona game, what a roller coaster - I think Detroit winning is probably better for the Devils because they're just not likely to catch Arizona, even though it would be huge if they did (since they move up 2 spots that way). WIN: -2 BUF: -3 DAL: -4 DET: -4 VAN: -5 NJD: -5 ARI: -9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vancouver and Dallas need to step it up Most non playoff teams have also embraced 'The Suck'... looks like all the bottom dwellers have gone to their audition plans of using minor leaguers/prospects. Vancouver esp has been embracing the suck with like 8 straight losses and their schedule is mostly against winning/playoff teams so can't let them finish lower than the Devs. The league loves CHICAGO... the refs and Toronto threw the game for them on a clearly offsides score. It is absolutely getting ridiculous on the Referees and rulings in games which the video tape proves the big con. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven M. Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I don't see us beating the rangers but I see us winning one of the two weekend games. Don't see us winning at Toronto either. Hopefully if we do manage to win a game this weekend it's against Carolina, not Dallas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Decent look now, as teams are starting to pull away from the Devils here, I've removed Buffalo and Winnipeg because they are 6 points up on NJ with 11 to go: DAL: -4 DET: -4 VAN: -6 NJD: -7 ARI: -11 It's getting more and more improbable that they finish higher than 24th - Sportsclubstats has it at 6% right now that they finish at 24th or above, while they are a whopping 79% to finish between 26th and 28th.

Also, chicago is good, lol somehow, they ended up killing 31 seconds of penalty time in regulation and then one and half minutes of 4 on 3 time in OT and then got a PP of their own, and won it. epic night for both team tank and team play for pride. beat the fvcking rangers and every team we wanted to lose lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Yeah, everyone won. I don't need to update the stats. That Vancouver ending was incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
