Because if he doesn't I will. What a waste of an asset. To be fair I believe Lou was already gone but it was definitely a Conte pick. Him and his Zubrus obsession.

DevsMan84 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Also per @IgorEronko, NHL out clauses are forbidden in the KHL. Bahahahahahahahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By 2021 we should definitely be making regular playoff appearances. Especially if we keep Hall and have Laine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0asterleav1ns Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Zacha was picked almost exactly where he was rated by most scouting services. 10 other teams passed on Barzal before the Islanders selected him. I'm really tired of the "draft genius's" harping on this pick as proof that they know more than nhl scouting staffs. It's utter nonsense and confirmation bias. Drafting and scouting players is hard. I'd love to see the people who wanted Barzal admit just how many times they have been wrong about other players.... for every Barzal there's a Patrik Stefan etc. There would be a point this crap if we reached for Zacha, or 10 other teams didnt pass on Barzal. Clearly the scouting services thought there was something to Zacha, and alot of teams thought Barzal had some pretty huge holes in his game. That said, with the time and effort we have put into Zacha... if he really goes to the KHL I hope he stays there and rots. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkin cutter Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Zacha is such a drama queen. Hope he never wears a devils jersey again. Kid thinks he’s Gretzky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devs1965 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) I can not see it being about money unless Ray really is low balling him, As someone else mentioned its most likely term, NJ probably does not want to commit to long term contract with his hot/cold play. I would really like to see him play this season he brings a defensive special teams edge that we could use but I wouldn't be to upset if he does a Kovy!

SterioDesign Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) i actually don't really blame Zacha (in a way) he's been pushed to the 4th line... all the moves ray did to get wingers is also pushing him out of the top 6 for that too... he knew he'd have limited ice time and not much chance to prove himself otherwize so i get he didnt want to commit to any money based on what he was worth... now.... and he knew he couldnt prove himself much more after... still really sucks tho edit: Obviously though it's clearly @mfitz804's fault... now we know players ARE reading this forum Edited September 9, 2019 by SterioDesign 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Just to confirm, if I ever said I would pack his bags and drive him to the airport, it was said in jest and I’m not actually obligated to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevsMan84 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 So the goal song vote is now up for the next few days. Top 3 choices out of the selection below will be played at Devils preseason games before a final vote. IMO, the list below is proof to me these were pre-determined before they even asked for suggestions. Sorry, but no one chose Dee Snider and Queen. I love Queen and all their songs but Don't Stop Me Now is not a good goal song. The Devils did a nice job fooling a lot of people into giving them their contact info for their sales CRM. Ole - The Bouncing Souls Hey Baby - DJ Otzi Whoomp! (There It is) - Tag Team I Wanna Rock - Twister Sister Hip Hop Hooray - Naughty by Nature Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen Howl - Gaslight Anthem Don't Stop Me Now - Queen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that many people voted for whomp there it is. Nightmare that will be. I can't believe anyone voted for hey baby either..... And it's probably the easiest song on the list to put you suck into lol I also don't believe that many people voted for naughty by nature or even know they are from Newark..... But the vmas were just there and they performed at the arena a few months ago with Devils jerseys on so that also reeks of the front office putting that song on the list. fvcking hell I hate this list. I hope Howl wins at this point too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil Dan 56 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 13 minutes ago, DevsMan84 said: Shero on Zacha per Mike Morreale. That looks a lot like Ray recognizing what Zachas agent is up to and him trying to appeal to Zacha himself. For some reason I get the feeling that Zacha isn't the kind of person that holds out and looks to the KHL without an agent telling him to.
