GDT: 10/30 Devs vs Bolts 7PM, MSG+, Devils Radio Network

I'd love to sit here and say that catching a team on a back to back means we should be the more energized and hungry team, but we saw that's not always the case last game.  To be fair, we actually did look energized last game, but some unfortunate chances ended up in the back of our net - hopefully some better D and goaltending and we won't have that problem tonight.  

Maroon got into a fight that lasted quite a while yesterday, so that could be why he's hurt and potentially out.  Not that we have a history of beating up backup goalies, if anything it's almost the exact opposite as we all know, but Vasilevsky was in last night, so we probably get McElhiney tonight.

Been so ugly around here lately that I've taken a break from posting.  Really hoping for a win tonight, then maybe another...though I've gotten on Hynes at times, I'm really just trying to stay patient, and hoping that two of Shero's bigger moves that most of us were behind earlier (namely PK and Gusev) will look better sooner than later.  Have no issue with Gusev getting a night off and a "tutoring session" with Elias...he really seems to need it.

Win tonight, that's three out of four.  That's something.

LGMFD!

The coat drive starts tonight as well as Fridays game. Bring a coat and get a voucher for a free pair of tickets to a future game. 

LETS GO DEVILS!!! 

Didn't realize they changed it to a 2 coat minimum. Absolutely stupid. I really don't get this team sometimes. They had a 2 can minimum last year, lowered from a 10 can minimum in past years yet somehow 2 coats which can actually be quite expensive equals the same amount of cans of food that equate to like $5. Absolutely ridiculous.

Yeah that doesn’t make a lot of sense. If anything it should’ve been more cans, not less. I got lower bowl tickets last time I did both the good drive and coat drive, that’s worth more than 10 cans of food (we brought 10 each, but then also were given two vouchers).

I'm curious to see if they raise the food drive this year, which they absolutely should because I bitched and moaned about it being lowered to 2 cans because I saw numerous people only bringing 2 cans last year. You can get 2 cans for $1 Even if they raise it back to 10 cans you can get 10 cans for less than $5 bucks. I just don't see how that's equatable with a coat when coats normally run much more expensive.

Anyone who brought only 2 cans is ridiculous. I don’t care what the limit is, if you are going to donate, do it right. 

I’m sure part of the logic is that people donate old coats they might otherwise throw away, so they aren’t “worth” what it costs to buy a coat. But even still, you can get a coat at Old Navy on sale for like $15-20 at times, so it is possibly the equivalent of 20-40 cans of food depending on the sale you catch.

I think the ad I saw said "winter coats", so there is a chance they won't accept a thin $15-20 fleece jacket.

I hope they do raise the food drive can minimum to 10 cans or more.  Like others have said I can get canned vegetables for like $.75-.99 from supermarkets.

 

As for the game, I hope they win.  I am also glad this 1 game in 11 days stretch is finally over.

Absolutely agree about them being ridiculous but I saw quite a few people do it last year. I just emailed my rep that if they are raising the coat minimum to 2 they should be raising the food drive to at the very least a minimum of 20 cans.

Thank god we can watch a hockey game again.

Devils win 5-4 in overtime. PK Subban has a PPG and SD goes on a three page rant about how his celebration is proof that he's an egomaniac and submits twenty links showing how PK's foundation uses a silhouette of the celebration which shows he only cares about himself and how the foundation really isn't anything other than a form of tax-evasion. 

Zacha gets the overtime winner after Stamkos rips one off the pipe. 

Yeah dude. Poke the bear and then whine like a bitch when the bear sh!ts on your lawn

You can get a full blown winter jacket at Old Navy for that price, if you watch their sales. Last year my wife got one for the sole purpose of wearing it to the gym, can be tossed in the corner and put on while sweaty without messing up your actual coat.

Agreed, that's still more than fair.

Neither of you is a bear, we need to stop saying that. Though I am totally in favor of you sh!tting on his lawn, that would be funny.
