lazer Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) cory played well in a loss down 3-1 ok lets not throw him a parade the second goal was not good and could have been 1-1 in OT just saying in my opinion, the team plays awkward in front of him to im not a ginger hater...i just dont think hes proved anything; hes won one game this year.

Calls were pretty harsh today, missed Hedman spearing, and Kucherov didn't get supplemental discipline for injuring Vatanen. None of that made an ounce of difference in the outcome of this series; hence, nobody got screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how anyone could watch that game and not say Cory played phenomenal. You saw Tampa had like 10 PP’s right? Score could have very easily been 5 or 6.

lazer Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) cory played great in a loss...all im saying is the 2nd goal went in untouched and unscreened and if not we could be in OT Edited April 21, 2018 by lazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those aren’t small developments. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I certainly hope so, because my draft chant is defenseman, defenseman. Hopefully not a goalie See yah Brian b, drew D and Michael B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory has been awesome this series and has shown he found his game back, which is really encouraging. Don't think we watched the same game/series. Cory had like 6 PP's against him today and made like 4-5-6 HUGE saves. I guess he should post a shutout every game?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Brown Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 RECAP Perfect example of a game why you don't simply allow teams to possess and shoot the puck from the perimeter. All 3 goals scored in this game came from low danger shots. Overall, they battled hard all series. Tampa was the only team that the Devils were truly overmatched against. Boston or Pittsburgh would have been the best matchups for the Devils. Washington, Philly, or Columbus would have been tough, but are beatable teams. Tampa was basically a no chance matchup. Schneider's play in the series makes me feel confident he can bounce back next season. Next season we need, the following. A new system that is centered around constant pressure on the puck A true number 1 d-man, preferably a LHD, although I won't say no to Erik Karlsson. Zacha to not wait until the All-Star break to turn his game on. Overall though he's gotten better in each season Schneider to bounce back. A 2nd line center GOALS AGAINST RECAP Goal 1 Zajac needs to either ice it or flip that puck out. No chance for Schneider Goal 2 Similar to the 1st goal Not as much of a screen, but still a screen. More saveable than the 1st goal POSSESSION ES CF: 42 to 38 ES FF: 29 to 32 ES SF: 23 to 25 ES SCF: 19 to 17 ES HDCF: 9 to 4 All CF: 47 to 59 All FF: 34 to 51 All SF: 27 to 38 All SCF: 20 to 31 All HDCF: 10 to 7 SCORE AND VENUE ADJUSTED POSSESSION CF: 35.39 to 38.25 FF: 25.29 to 31.68 SF: 19.43 to 24.58 SCF: 14.97 to 17.06 HDCF: 7.08 to 3.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Zajac doesn't create a horrible turnover on Sergachev's goal it's 1-1 lol. Millions of possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only goaltending issue was 10 goals in the first two games. Which wasn’t entirely a goalie issue, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m afraid all you can hope for is that Greene would retire, otherwise he’ll be here collecting checks. Unless they can buy him out, but I don’t fully understand all of the cap implications from that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
