DevsMan84 2,170 Posted September 12, 2019 Isn't Dakota typically a female's name these days? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devil Dan 56 1,790 Posted September 12, 2019 I thought it was interesting that White, Anderson, and Rooney now have "normal" numbers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was signed from Buffalo but he's 29 and only played 124 career NHL games. Looks like AHL depth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's wearing the number he will wear in Binghamton. And he might make the team if there's multiple injuries on D. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mfitz804 9,196 Posted September 12, 2019 Some of those names, though. Dakota Mermis? Fabian Zetterlund? Ludvig Larsson? Anyone else feeling like their own name is really boring? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJDfan1711 1,517 Posted September 12, 2019 So...they misspelled "Brian Strait", unless of course his name is actually "Brain", in which case, yikes. And also, he doesn't get a number? Man, that guy isn't getting any love. He might as well just take the next bus to the Bing and skip camp altogether. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevsMan84 2,170 Posted September 12, 2019 Isn't this Fabian's 3rd training camp, no? Or am I just combining this and Dev camp? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titans04 993 Posted September 12, 2019 there's a ton of fodder there but very much looking forward to the final roster going into the season. Someone remind me how many weeks into camp do they shed all the spare parts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MB3 4,939 Posted September 12, 2019 Seeing the photos of wayne got me wondering. Who was the last Devil before Simmonds to not wear a visor? David clarkson’s ugly mug comes to mind immediately but I’m sure there were plenty more since then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man, if you consider Clarkson to be ugly, can't imagine what you think of Rod Brind'Amour, Bobby Holik or Mike Ricci, heh heh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I checked his stats and saw that he didn't have any games played last year (in the NHL) - was wondering why and thought maybe he was in the AHL for the whole season. That makes sense if he was hurt. I was moreso surprised and laughing at the fact that his name was misspelled though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devs1965 76 Posted September 12, 2019 Wasn't Okhotyuk listed as injured? Surprised to see him on the list. Hes 18 and plays a physical game on D. One of the D-men I was hoping to see more of. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crisis 498 Posted September 12, 2019 This was tweeted last week so the 6-8 week estimate would put him around the first week or two of the regular season. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aitchmack 461 Posted September 13, 2019 I've watched quite a few of the player media day interviews (yeah, I'm that desperate for the season to start) and boy are most of them dull as hell. And that isn't the players fault it's the media asking such dumb ass questions. Thought PK and Simmonds came across well though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
