Because of course this is actually not true at all haha he didn't even play i watched the whole game edit: oh. i understand what happened here. I assume you saw somewhere that J. Anderson had 2 goals in the Toronto / MTL game... lol well THAT is true. But it was Josh Anderson Edited January 14, 2021 by SterioDesign 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 This just in, Joey Anderson sucks, Josh Anderson is going to score 112 goals this season. You heard it here first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Rangers going into a third straight season with no captain. I really don’t like that idea, but as we don’t seem to have one either, I guess I can’t say anything. Yes I can, the Rangers still suck.

NJDevils1214 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I'm watching the Avs broadcast and I don't think I've ever heard a team, not even the Rangers, blow so much smoke up their own asses. By listening to them talk you'd think they already bought the balloons for the cup parade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely stacked current roster, and they probably somehow also have one of the best prospect groups in the league.

ajsgolf Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 From a Devils fan standpoint, is it wrong for me to say it’s good to see Nolan Patrick playing and got a goal? Glad to see he’s healthy and hope he has a good year. Am I alone in that sentiment? I do hope Nico has a much better year than him of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’m glad he can play and I’m happy for him personally for making it back, but I’m not gonna sit here and tell you I want to him to succeed as long as he’s playing for the Flyers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) I really hope we can see a sort of encouraging growth with players having breakout seasons every year like Vancouver was able to see 2014-2015 - Bo Harvat came in and had a "decent" rookie season. 2015-2016 - Harvat establish himself as a pretty solid player 2017-2017 - Brock Boeser come in as a rookie and become a star almost instantly 2018-2019 - Elias Petterson come in and establish himself as a star in his rookie season leading the team in points 2019-2020 - Quinn Hughes comes in and has an amazing rookie season and become a star instantly and now Hoglander has been impressive recently and had a good game. So i guess he'll be the next one Edited January 14, 2021 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can say it’s good that he didn’t have a career ending head injury but anything more than that is crossing a line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have specified I do not want the Flyers to succeed in any capacity but just good to see him healthy. That really should have been the extent of it. That was crossing the line and I promise not to make that mistake again. Can I send a care package to make up for the mistake? Would rather send a Stanley Cup replica with all the names of the 2021 Devils roster but that’s more than a bit of a stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in general, I have serious complaints about njd development department. But I hope that the situation will change with the arrival of Ruff and Recchi.

We didn't have any young players, to the career development of which we had no complaints. The management of the franchise must change the trends in this direction urgently. Because at the moment, this franchise has nothing left but the development of young players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I don’t think Fitz got the proper congrats about the Vatanen deal. I mean, we always talk about trading a guy at the deadline and then re-signing him after the end of the season when his contract expires. But does that ever happen? We got two players and a puck by trading a guy who was hurt, played zero games for his new team in the regular season, 7 playoff games when we were already long eliminated, and then brought him back at a great price. Basically 3 free assets by trading a guy who wasn’t able to play anyway. And although Shero was partly responsible, they didn’t extend him at a much higher salary as was hoped/anticipated at the time. Great dealings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Joey Anderson might not have scored but on the subject of former Devils, our old pal Adam Larsson had a nice goal from the point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I’m sure it has happened, I’m not familiar with those guys in your contract situations, but it seems to me that every time it happens, and we don’t wanna lose the guy, it’s something that people say. Adam Henrique comes to mind. Although I don’t remember if it was his contract year, I think he might’ve had two years left. But people want to re-sign him when that was possible. The best part of the Vatanen deal, we lost out on nothing. She wasn’t able to play at all. The only games he played, he played after we had no more games. And we got assets for that. That was a tremendous move, hopefully Kuokkodile works out but if not, still was a good shot for giving up nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's from Quebec so it's another Tavares thing. He'd 100% regret it within a few years though. The amount of french players who dreamed of playing for the Habs... had the big speech about living their dreams when they signed there or wtv... then they almost ALL asked for a trade at some point cause it turned into a nightmare. The expectations and the fans/media are so terrible. You're way better off not understanding french if you play there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
