It’s not ALL on him, but at some point, he’s gotta be better. It’s flat-out not happening. Agreed. We’re in a mess with a handful of things now. The team should all around be much better than the product they’re producing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After what happened between Torts and DeBoer a decade ago, the former coaching the Devils under any circumstances would be incredibly weird. That said, it’s obvious Lindy isn’t the right coach for this group, as they’re never prepared to play, and their defense isn’t good enough to keep opponents at bay while they try to mount a comeback.

With sh!ttier teams we expected Cory to do that. VV needs to be held to that standard. that is something I will ABSOLUTELY agree with you on. Bro, if you think VV is at the same level as prime Cory Schneider you were always going to be disappointed. VV has never been close to that good.

Even knowing how special Jack is, I cannot believe how many coaching mistakes are undone or at least minimized by his brilliance. It’s frightening to think about where the Devils would be without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ELIAS6 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 I know it’s early, but if this keeps up and we miss the playoffs by digging ourselves into a deep early grave with this team.. I just don’t know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna have to be low-cost…the cap space just isn’t there. But I’d take a shot on changing the head coach first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is inexcusable. I’ve seen people mentioning the loss of Brunette, but Green’s power play is the only thing that is working right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico’s a great player, and his absence definitely hurts, but there’s enough talent among the remaining players that they should be winning games easily against teams like Detroit, Washington, Winnipeg, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Someone else hit on this earlier, but I'm really getting fvcking tired of the gambling ads too. Every single commercial break. In the pregame. During the game. During the intermission. It's fvcking exhausting, I don't partake nor do I have an issue with anyone who does, but it's so over the top it's almost offensive 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
