ButlerBulldog Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Big mistake by Luke. The Devils are fortunate that wasn’t a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RizzMB30 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) It's really great to see this team playing good defense again. Really feels cleaned up in front of the tendies. Vanny with a .920 tonight. This is what a defense helping a goalie out looks like. Edited December 9, 2023 by RizzMB30 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s racked up 9 points in 7 games since his return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like they’ve cut out a good number of high danger chances, meaning the saves are normal versus needing to be spectacular 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not the skater or tactician that Jack is, but he stabilizes so many facets of the team’s play by being effective all over the ice. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be an ideal candidate for a contender down the stretch if it wasnt for his contract, $4.9 million and 4 years left isn't easy to accommodate. 100% agree. He's like an ultimate depth piece in my opinion. But that contract is close to untouchable for any serious contender 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had several near misses off the posts or crossbar, so it’s only a matter of time before the next rampage starts. Plus, he’s playing against Connor McDavid, so I’m sure he’d like to have a big game to show that he’s on the same level as his counterpart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Finally caught up…some more good puck luck (Calgary missed some golden opportunities) but I’ll keep taking the wins.

I’ll take that performance from him all day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except on Rico’s goal, he literally flipped the puck over Vatanen’s head, went around him, and scored. It was a ridiculous goal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a ridiculous goal. Either way, good for Shar, and both were great goals. All the power to those guys. I think that trade has definitely soured as the years have gone by.

He doesn’t seem to be able to separate himself from defenders when the Devils are in the attacking zone. He has a bum MCl. Organization expects. it to be an issue all year.
