Nice to see them hating certain Devils because deep down they know they wish that they had them. It's one thing for them to hate on a guy like PK because of the slew-foot crap...but to hate on guys because they're really FRIGGIN GOOD...that's sweet tears right there.

RizzMB30 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Hey everybody, Ryan N. talked to Petr Sykora and Patty Elias, https://www.nj.com/devils/2023/08/devils-greats-patrik-elias-petr-sykora-believe-these-devils-will-bounce-back-in-2023-24.html I don't subscribe and am paywalled, can anybody help a fellow fan out with getting the dirty deets on this article? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RizzMB30 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I just said fvck it and burnt my 7-day trial. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote “We all love Jack (Hughes), Nico (Hischier) and all these guys, but if I could pick one player that’s in the shadows of the huge stars, it’s Ondrej Palat,” Sykora told NJ Advance Media earlier this week. “I always tell my son, ‘Look at him. Watch him play, watch how gritty he is, watch how he’s always in the right positions all the time.’ He works every single shift. He doesn’t give up. He can score, he can do PK, he can do it all.” Quote Palat needs to prove the huge deal was worth it in 2023-24. Sykora and Patrik Elias – two Czech-born ex-Devils who made up the “A line” alongside Jason Arnott during their playing career – are confident he will in year No. 2. “With Ondrej, a little difficult obviously dealing with a couple of injuries, especially at the beginning of the season,” Elias told NJ Advance Media in July. “But even in the playoffs, you saw it: His game just elevates. He does things the right way. I’m sure that he’s more comfortable, his family is more comfortable here. I saw him a month ago back in Czech, he’s training hard, he seems healthy, and I’m sure he’s going to have a better season than he did last year.” “Palat was hurt, and actually I didn’t expect him to play that well after the injury he had,” Sykora said. Quote He’s not the only Czech Devil in need of a bounce-back season. Vitek Vanecek, acquired by New Jersey in a draft-day trade in 2022, was one of the worst goalies in the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs. He ranked last in goals saved above expected (minus-7.6), fourth-to-last in save percentage, and third-to-last in goals against average (4.64). Quote “Numbers-wise, Vitek had a wonderful season,” Elias said. “He did great. He gave his team a lot of wins. He was in a different situation during playoffs time. All of the sudden, he was the guy to bring this team the success that we all want, and sometimes it’s not that easy. With goaltenders, mental state is very important. I’m sure he didn’t feel like he gave the team the best opportunity to succeed at certain times, but that’s going to make him stronger. “Vanecek had an unbelievable regular season,” Sykora said. “But the playoffs are new for him too. The experience he had in the playoffs this year, going up and down, I think it’s truly going to help him. I think it will help the team. For the fans and for people that are watching, we want to win right away. We want to win right now. But it’s a process. It takes time and experience. Quote “I’m a resident here in New Jersey, I live here, I go to the games,” Sykora said. “Last year was such a pleasure to go to the games. … It’s a different vibe now. Even if the team isn’t doing well, I’ll still go to games. But it’s different now. You’re coming in and the building is energized again. It’s full, it’s loud. “I truly believe that, with the core players they have right now, this team has a pretty good chance to take it all the way. I only think that they were missing playoff experience, so it’s awesome that they got it last year with a couple of rounds. They’re going to know how to react in the next playoffs, they’re going to know how to deal with certain situations. Within the next five years, we should see the Devils in the Stanley Cup Finals – 100%.” Nice words from these studs. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Giants fan too, and I wish they had a mascot too. It would be awesome if it was just literally a giant man. Something like Hercules X10. But I'll take 2 outta 3. NJ Devil and Mr. Met never disappoint. One of the greatest sports moments ever, and it didn't even come on the field / ice.

Lateralous Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I saw someone actually wearing one of the “No quit in New York” t-shirts that the Rangers sold for the 2023 playoffs in public yesterday morning.
