It wasn't even trolling. Guy asked her to ask Hynes about why he continues to play Wood despite his play the last two games. She replied with a snarky remark about Devils not taking advice from "randos" on twitter and even made reference to the number of twitter followers he has (like that has anything to do with anything). Guy responded with a sarcastic remark about what great content she has and her reply is to say what she publishes is what she considers content and anything she writes on twitter is not content.

The devils will have a losing record through the first 20 games but make the playoffs. - The only one that's correct! 2. Pavel Zacha will score 20 goals and mfitz will spontaneously combust like a dying star. - Lol...almost 3. Cory Schneider proves that he was only slowed by injury and posts his best season ever as a New Jersey Devil, earning himself a Vezina nomination. - Lol...guy has been demoted to the minors 4. Taylor Hall signs a contract extension before the calendar hits November. - Lol...guy is gonna be traded any day now 5. Jack Hughes breaks the devils all-time assists record as a rookie. - Lol...guy is currently hurt 6. Jesper Boqvist has more points than Blake Coleman and Travis Zajac combined. - Lol...guy is routinely held out of the lineup 7. Micro Mueller takes a gigantic leap forward and goes from “turnstile” to “bad defenseman” - Lol...guy is a healthy scratch 8. The devils win a playoff series, and lose in the quarterfinals to the eventual cup champion Toronto Maple Leafs. - Lol...playoffs? Amazing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pavel Zacha devises a plan to give me free tickets at center ice 10 rows up, I happily accept them and when I get there, he is waiting there to kick me square in the balls for all of my antics on this board, which he reads regularly. He misses by 3 feet. The season isn’t over yet and this is still quite possible, despite the fact that I’ve been nice and “Almost” has been morphed into “Hallmost”.

I know you were being sarcastic initially, so it's amazing how many of those things truly didn't/won't happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevsMan84 2,066 Posted Tuesday at 03:08 PM On 10/2/2019 at 8:59 AM, DevsMan84 said: My predictions: 1) Zacha will get about 10-15 goals and end up with about 25-30 points. Basically a tiny bit of improvement. 2) Gusev will end up with about 25 goals and about 45-50 points. 3) Hughes will win the Calder 4) Simmonds will start to be scratched by January every couple of games. 5) Boqvist will notch about 15-20 goals. 6) Mueller will stink even more 7) Schneider will return to form before his injury. Blackwood will be solid in his outings with some rough patches. Idea going into season was probably 51-31 split for starts but ends up 61-21 split in favor of Schneider. 8. Hischier will break out and meet or exceed 65 points. 9) Hall will play at least 65 games and will re-sign for 6 years. 10) PK returns to his Norris-type form. 11) Coleman will only have about 10-12 goals. 1) Might still happen. 2) Outside chance of happening though I doubt it now. 3) Not with this coaching staff 4) Consistently on the 4th line 5) Bahahahahaha screw you Hynes. 6) Correct 7) Complete opposite has happened 8. See #3 and #5 9) I want him traded immediately 10) Not happening 11) Exceeds my predictions Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just have a feeling that this kid is going to develop very quickly this season. 70 GP is still in play at least. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
