We need to add more scoring. I wonder what St. Louis was looking for a trade for Tarasenko who is of course on fire already. 

People were suspecting him of having a potentially long-term or even career ending injury (I think his back?)... I still wanted him badly.  Figures he's off to a hot start.

Shoulder. Hopefully Jack comes back just as hot…

This team desperately needs some of the injured to get back. At least they didn't roll over tonight, but kind of expect more than that now. Someone needs to shake Sharongovich up and tell him the season started.

He responded well to getting benched, too. He was not invisible in the third period, and he's been invisible a lot.

This team feels so much worse than 3-2. 

Ya think?  It's because they got eviscerated by the only two good teams they played, were life and death to beat the three bad teams with all sorts of rest and travel advantages and look incompetent offensively without Hughes.

Yep. A bunch of guys need to step it up.

I absolutely love Nico (he’s my 2nd favorite player on the team), and he was fantastic defensively against the Kraken, but he has been absolutely MIA offensively so far this season. Can’t continue.

Same, and he has had some goals waved off. The thing for me is it looks like his decision making in the O zone is just really off right now. He is making some really bad passes and just bad decisions that are really uncharacteristic of him.

Stopped watching after the 4th unanswered goal as I've been playing Far Cry 6 (pretty fun game, a bit repetitive like the rest though) but it's nice to see they showed a little spark

Hmm, I need to get that game. I’ve enjoyed that series.

I wonder if he’s putting pressure on himself and trying to force too many plays.

Was at the game tonight.  Left once the Flames scored to make it 5-1, so of course I miss two Devils goals.

Happy for Zacha and Mercer, regardless of whether it was garbage time or not.  Zacha is picking up where he left off last season, which I think is huge.  And I’m never going to complain about a promising rookie in Mercer putting up some points.

I’ve completely run out of patience with Bratt (shouldn’t need a fvcking benching in Game 5 of a new season to finally play like he gives a damn), but it’s starting to run a little thin with Nico too…and like others, I love the guy, but it’s gotta start to happen for him.  The Devils need much more from him that he’s providing.

it seems like sharangovich and kuokkonen are two meh NHLers that got carried last year by a generational talent. gimme holtz for sharangovich’s role, and put kuok on the 4th line where he belongs

Did Kuokkanen play tonight? I legitimately did not know if he did.
