Well… I’m watching the dog show. Pointer took 3rd in the Sporting Group. And Oh my gosh. Cutest Great Dane ever. Jumped up on his tiny handler just now — So cute!!  Anyhow so the Pointers a Jerzy girl. Well - part anyhow    Ok. I’m not focusing.  Bye!!  Devils will be grand next season - no worries.  Lindy Ruff is an ass I don’t trust he learned anything. Only Pat Burns was a lifetime learning coach like that so. Have a great Summer kids!

I’d imagine it’s already worked out. Maybe Fitz calls for Brewnet to be replaced if no one hires him, but I could see that being about it.  

McGill I actually like, despite these playoff meltdowns. His defense and PK has largely overachieved compared to the much more skilled unit Brewnet has. 

If they get blown out on Thursday and Lindy is back, I guess we can expect more of these types of games.

If they get blown out I'm not giving Lindy an extension so fast. 

come on. who wouldn’t have signed up back in october for a 49 point improvement and beating the rangers in 7 in the first round ?    Lindy is about fifth on the list after Bratt and some others.  and let’s not forget  the Panthers were just down 3-1 to the best team of all time.  so not giving up yet …… (yes they didn’t look like complete crap in the losses)

Have Brindamour's teams ever lost like this? They've been competitive every year since he became coach and are disciplined.

Bratt should get sent home to Sweden for the last game just to send a message.

I actually don’t think scratching him is a bad idea.  I mean it pretty much resets any negotiation with his agent.   What’s the worst that can happen?   He demands a trade?

I thought Rolie Mendleson (sp?) was Cory’s guy? 

You’re right, I just checked. It was Melanson from 2017-2020. I should have remembered one of the few #30’s in Devils history

I said this tongue in cheek. They can't make him go to Sweden but they can not bring him to Carolina.

Okay, but who is actually going to be available that would be an improvement?   
 

I don’t think Lindy is the coach that will ultimately get us a cup with this group but pretty much every young guy has been developing really well under his watch.   Given that L Hughes, Nemec, Schmid and probably Holtz will all be getting worked into the lineup next year, it wouldn’t be the worst thing to keep him around for another year.

Waking up at 2am to check the score. Wish I hadn't bothered. Another capitulation is embarrassing. Going to try and get back to sleep . Will watch it back tomorrow.

Yeah, I just meant scratching him in general.  I wasn’t thinking of sending him to Sweden.

At the very least get rid of Rogalski.

Dude, don’t. Trust me, you don’t wanna see this. It was terrible.

he blew a 3-2 lead against the rangers last year.  something we didn’t this year when they put all their cards in.   we’re all upset but i just don’t  Lindy is the problem if we even have one.  never make rash decisions when emotional; sometimes the best moves are the ones you don’t make yada yada .

I always love how people always gotta come in and make folks feel bad for being mad about losing.

Yea, season is a success all things considered. Easily a massive W. But let me fvcking be mad in this moment while they're getting spanked lol.
