MadDog2020 8,566 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 The drive for five (in a row)! Morning skate at 10:30, so we should get lineups and some news on Butcher later on this morning. Let’s keep it rolling boys! LGD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NJDfan1711 1,727 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) The fact that Butcher hasn't been ruled out or placed on IR or anything like that I think is encouraging that he'll play tonight. I predicted KK with the shutout last game, let's see what I can do now. I think he has another strong game, with 1 goal coming off some crappy bounce and bad luck. Otherwise, I think we come out energized again and everything clicking, and we end the night with a 4-1 win. Goals by Wood, Palmieri, Hall and Severson. Let's Go Devils.

I don't get that impression at all. The reason why we haven't heard anything yet it because the Devils were off yesterday and that includes updates to the media. We should hear after the morning skate at around 10:30-10:45 today. I have a feeling he will be out for at least this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bostondevil11 133 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 They wouldn't use him on the game day poster if he wasn't going to play would they? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, they probably put that together before he got hurt. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't exactly be surprised if he were out for this game (or longer), I still think he's going to be able to suit up. I think he left the game as a precaution and hopefully he was able to rest/recover the last day and a half. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whenever players get hurt and it is bad enough that they'll be out for an extender period of time I want to say we hear about it fairly quick, especially if they leave the building(go to the hospital). Devsman84 is just being overly cautious with his optimism. If he had a concussion or broke something we'd know by now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely not always the case, but to his point that's essentially what I was referring to with my original comment.

I think we knew Sami had a concussion before that game against Tampa was even over. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevsMan84 2,366 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Looks like I was in the wrong. Stein just tweeted Butcher is out there in the morning skate. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Colorado Rockies 1976 6,517 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Will be there with my daughter (Sec 19)...only way to get her used to these weeknight games is to keep taking her to weeknight games, heh heh. Nice to be hitting up my third game of the year already...man did I miss hockey. LGMFD! Just now, SterioDesign said: my god im so godamn happy that Butcher is fine You, Butcher, and everyone else involved with the Devils. Yeah dodged a serious bullet on that one. Glad he seems to be OK. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DevsMan84 2,366 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Per Stein, Stafford looks to be in for Q. I don't mind this move. Q has been invisible for stretches at a time so far. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Q has been invisible for stretches at a time so far. Q had as good of a chance as he was ever going to get to make an impression, with Bratt missing games early on...can't say he's been bad, just hasn't done anything to stand out, that has anyone screaming "Let's see more of what this guy's got." Likely the beginning of a semi-predictable path for him...as in, he's probably heading to Bingo within the next few weeks, if not sooner. He might get a longer look if this was the 2014-15 Devils, but there's simply guys ahead of him on the depth chart. That being said...Drew Friggin' Stafford? Bleech. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cgb6397 106 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I have a feeling Kinkaid lets in a few goals tonight, and the Devils still win it. I'm calling 5-3 for our fifth win of this early season. LGD! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ Eco 494 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Tricky tilt tonight. We're on a high and have beaten some really strong teams. I hope a little over-confidence doesn't creep in, "because it's Colorado." They're doing pretty well to start the season so far and it will be a tough matchup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
