I’ll gladly take my walk of shame! I was definitely remaining stubbornly hopeful, but I can understand why some fans got down and felt like this thing might end in 4 or 5...as someone who went to both of those losses, I can tell you it was probably more brutal watching that sh!t in person than it was watching it on TV. Especially with the most abrasive fanbase in the NHL making their presence known. And seeing friggin' punchable-faced Kreider just hanging out near the net with no fear of contact... I get on Lindy plenty obviously, and swapping out Siegs for Smith in Game 2 was damned near unforgivable, but going to Schmid and benching Wood and Smith for the last two games were terrific personnel decisions. On some levels I do feel a little for VV, but like many have said, the playoffs come at you fast, and Lindy did give VV a redemption game...sometimes you gotta make that bold call and just hope that it works out. At least Lindy (with input from others) was willing to make it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just blindly hopeful. Didn't want to believe such a fun and promising season was going to end on such a down note. Yeah, they went from looking like a team that was going to need to learn a very tough lesson for future postseasons to settling in and looking relatively comfortable and seasoned, pretty much overnight. Hell of a turnaround. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one hand you’d like the momentum to continue while the Rags are reeling. But then again you also want to practice some things.. If we blew the Rangers out, I'd be more worried. We got our asses kicked in the first two... we slugged it out for the next two to tie it up. I'm hoping we can have a fresh start and play our game with Game 5... and end this thing in 6. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course not. But just remember that even many PRO ATHLETES themselves are superstitious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually get why some people were shell-shocked into extreme negativity. Outside of Jack's penalty shot goal (in a game that had LONG been decided), and the Devils turning in a decent first period in Game 2 (and even scoring on the power play), there was SO little to cheer for and feel good about. They looked young, unprepared, and overwhelmed. Some Devils fans definitely have absurd expectations of course...when the Devils went 21-2-1 for a stretch earlier this year and then dared to lose, almost right away there was some bitching. But this is one time that even if I wasn't looking to jump off the cliff myself, I could understand why some fans were teetering off the ledge. It's not easy to see such a hated rival waltz into your building and own your team. On the other side, the Ranger fans in attendance for Game 2 clearly thought that this thing was a mere formality as that game wound down...and of course, that brought out the worst of the douchiness that resides within damned near EVERY Ranger fan is capable of, especially in OUR presence. So glad to see them suddenly have to be nervous about Thursday night's game and beyond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ELIAS6 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 What’s up with timo? Do we think he’s not 100%? His physicality has been great but outside of that woof and I hate to have to say that. Some bad passes a sh!t ton of penalties that have to stop immediately.. we need him to start putting pucks in nets or I’m nervous about giving him the kind of money and term he’s going to get. He just looks lost out there half the time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
