And that’s not a knock in the slightest…more that he’s just looked so good at that it feels like he should have even more points than he already does. This kid has been so much fun to watch. Agree totally. It’s nice to have a player that you wonder every game what he’s going to do next. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had a handful of games where he had no points and still made an impact in a positive way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure don't love Brad Marchand against us but I love the player. One of the most unique talents in the NHL ... ever. Who can you compare him to? I can't think of anyone. Stan Fischler compared him to Ted Lindsay, but I'm not old enough to remember his playing days.

NJDfan1711 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Today was just one of those win some, lose some games. The boys played pretty well, just weren't good enough. Gotta tip your cap to the other team. Here's hoping we smash the Rags tomorrow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devlman Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I simply don’t understand NHL officiating. I’ve watched hockey my whole life and I still don’t understand what should and shouldn’t be a call. Devils looked good today despite the loss. Maybe a half step slow with decisions and a little too fancy, probably from the afternoon start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He throws dirty elbows behind the play and then runs away from retaliation. Anyone who actually “loves the player” is someone I hope I never have the misfortune of meeting in real life. I have to agree. Love the skill part, maybe, but the player is a douche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He throws dirty elbows behind the play and then runs away from retaliation. He also works very hard at what he does and is a premier penalty killer as well as scorer. Of course, I don't like the cheap shots, but pests play on the edge, and sometimes they cross the line. I've always liked what the pest brings to hockey. I do like that there are guys willing to don the black hat. It makes things colorful. The licking was gross, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re the same guy who thought the NHL came down too hard on the Blackhawks, right? checks out. The day Marchand gets inducted into the Hall of Fame is going to be a very hard day for you. Send me your address, I'll send you a bouquet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
