Frustrating to not be able to take advantage of them being down a couple key players. Should have scored in the first... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets tunnel vision with the puck carrier. He needs to stop playing .900 hockey. I’m really starting to worry about our goaltending again. Samsonov was better, that's for sure.

Satans Hockey Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Can't believe we wasted a 2 goal night from Haula. Defense really needs to shape up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They left him out to dry a few times, but he’s also clearly struggling himself right now. His positioning and rebound control look terrible compared to when he’s on his game.

jagknife Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 The PP is painfully predictable right now and Vegas proved how easy it is to beat: pressure the puck carrier cause no one else is moving their feet, it’s entirely too stationary. Yotes copied it, Leafs exploited the sh!t out of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t flip on VV that quickly, and he did make some big saves tonight, but yeah, he’s not playing at the same level, and it would be nice if for just once Ruff’s teams actually showed the ability to correct obvious issues. It can’t always be about hoping the Devils’ collective talent finds a way to make the coach look good. They’ve gotten away with it quite a bit, and I suspect that they still will.

He changed gear mid season, I’ll never understand why in a position that is literally mental, they guy would change something so significant as his pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I also can’t say I’m crazy about Ruff already breaking up the Meier - Hughes - Bratt line after only one game. I know both Timo and Jack are both big time shot producers, and I get wanting to try and even that out on different lines,, but FFS let them cook for a while. They were buzzing all throughout the 1st period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at some point Lindy… What would you have Lindy do? He’s not out there playing perimeter hockey and not stopping the puck. Lindy’s line shuffling actually worked well yet again. VV deserves the blame. He doesn’t get to hide behind Lindy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
