2 years ago I think it’s a totally rational thought to say “Heiskanen or Elias would’ve been a better pick.” 

I let my point of view change when presented with new information. I still probably take Heiskanen and definitely Makar, but Nico is probably 3rd. He’s been stellar so far, really hope he keeps it up. 

At the time, yes. But to think that they were final products then?

Makar is obviously no question but you’d still take Miro over Nico today?

And that’s where I disagreed with DM84 at the time…I was definitely worried about Nico becoming a rich man’s Zajac and being able to stay healthy, but yeah, was way too early to call that draft.  And like I’ve always maintained, Devils needed a Top-6 center desperately.  They got one.

I don’t think anyone assumed they were final products. If they did, that’s silly. I’m always the “not even old enough to drink yet, give them time!!” guy so I don’t think it was me. 

Heiskanen yes but it’s a bit of a “fallacy of a predetermined outcome.” If the Devils have Miro they likely don’t draft Nemec. So it’s Heiskanen/Wright or Nico/Nemec and I think that’s kind of a tossup?

What a save! Man they need to wake the F up. What an awful turnover.

They’re not going to have their A game every night.  West Coast trips are never easy.  They’ve earned some slack with the way they’ve been playing lately…and sometimes you simply need your goalie to help bail you out.  Mac’s done that so far.

Mikes did not represent well in that “fight” but had the right intentions. Let’s see if he got the extra penalty on the second guy he wrestled. 

Vancouver should get the second penalty for a second guy jumping into the fight.

why the fvck did the refs let Schenn wail on Wood for 25 seconds and wait for a Devils player intervention? 

I was thinking the same exact thing.

How is Lindy Ruff not throwing benches on the ice??!!

So the Devils get fvcked by the refs yet again.

And the head coach just takes it.

Yep, seen that before.
