Goals 2 and 4 were pretty avoidable. 2 mistakes by Zajac imo. The Dahlin goal Merkley got owned. Other than that, I though the Bratt/Zacha/Wood line played really well, as well as the Kuok/Hughes/Sharangovich line. On to the next one. Did I also hear Cangi correctly, that was our SEVENTH game in a row allowing FIVE or more goals in regulation?!?! That is....fvcking horrendous. I'm usually the guy who doesn't want to fire people after less than a season , but this is just downright awful. Someone has to be responsible because this organization, we've said it before, is getting too comfortable with losing. It's become commonplace for us to set records....the wrong records. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devs3cups Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I feel like if Blackwood was in today we win this game. They only allowed 17 shots on goal for crying out loud. At least the offense showed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the case here, you can clearly see the referee signaling that it was a follow through right after the play happened. Anyway, I’m not blaming the loss on one missed call. Another night of atrocious power plays though...Thanks Recchi. 2 minutes ago, mfitz804 said: I’d just like to see if what I saw matches the chart. What did you see?

Meh, I like how Ruff has handled the young guys this year. We're an extremely young team that is going to make mistakes. Unfortunately we're seeing lots of mistakes from our vets.

Teams bury their chances against us so fvcking easy, whereas it feels like we have to work incredibly hard to score our goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're an extremely young team that is going to make mistakes. Unfortunately we're seeing lots of mistakes from our vets. Fire the PP coach then (yeah, I know they scored a PP goal tonight), or fire one of the assistant coaches. Fire the guy who refills the water bottles. I dunno, just do something. I can't stand this complacency. I feel like we've been "an extremely young team" for the last 5 years...at some point you just can't make excuses anymore. This game tonight I feel was what's been wrong with this team for the last decade, which is, essentially, EVERYTHING. Not one thing in particular, but enough random little things to make it a BIG THING which ultimately results in a LOSS. Tonight this team managed to keep their opponent under 20 shots on goal....GREAT, right?? They also managed to score a Powerplay goal tonight after being terrible on it all season... GREAT as well, right?? A rookie who joins the team in the very first game of his NHL career manages to get a point on the first goal of the game.... GREAT again, right?! It's all coming together and you know the night is gonna be magical, right?? WRONG. fvckING L. AGAIN. In the dying seconds of the game, on a goal that came on the penalty kill because Sami Vatanen took a stupid penalty in the offensive zone and, yes, we killed that one, but then, as luck would have it, Sharangovich takes one a few minutes later, and you just KNEW we weren't gonna be able to escape another late penalty killed in the dying minutes of the third. Lather. Rinse. REPEAT. Is it the fvcking sweater that these guys put on? Does being a New Jersey Devil mean sh!t now?! It certainly seems like it. Burn the fvcking locker room tonight and all the equipment in it. Get new Adidas jerseys from the factory because the ones the guys put on tonight are fvcking jinxed. Either that or these guys just fvcking suck ass and bring up the entire Binghamton squad. Edited April 7, 2021 by NJDfan1711 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I estimated “like 5”, does 6 make me wrong? I thought Jack disappeared for large sections of the game and that Sharangovich and Kuokkanen tend to look good when together no matter who is centering them.

Nicomo Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I get the lack of points is frustrating, I really do, but he’s hardly ever “invisible” or “disappears.” It could be worse, he could be not scoring and looking like total ass every night.

SterioDesign Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 In a few decades they'll have the Jack Hughes Award going to the player creating the most but not actually showing on the scoresheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
