I wouldn’t cry if they tried to move Siegenthaler as well, although with his value being at an all-time low, he’d almost certainly have to be packaged with someone more desirable such as Toffoli, and/or the Devils would have pay a portion of his salary, which I don’t see Fitz doing.

Siegs is in the first year of his five-year extension. Probably tough to move him, though his AAV isn’t bad at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not ready to move Siegs. He’s far from the only guy who had a bad season. And I think he’s more valuable to the Devils than whatever they’d get in return. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah right now the hope should be that some of these guys bounce back, and that a different head coach with a clear idea of a system will help a ton. VV was a mostly average goalie the past three years and maybe he can get back to that, but he’s had such a rough season that I don’t know if he can do it here.

I'm sure Fitz is still trying, but not much he can do unless he wants to get bent over and idk how much they truly think this season is worth betting the farm on(I know you don't agree 😉). When you are close to these people and they are more than just names on paper you treat things differently. We call the season punted, Fitz calls it "answer is in the room". He's just betting on his people to right the ship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmigliore Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I agree with not moving Siegs, his value is definitely depressed being injured and having a down year beforehand. I think losing Dougie really hurt him this year - those two pair perfectly together, like lamb and tuna fish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devlman Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 But wait, according to Lindy, Daws hasn’t played a game in a while and therefore cannot be trusted. This should be a Daws shutout incoming. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lateralous Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 (edited) When the rookies gain more experience and are taking up harder minutes, Siegs will be asked to do less and will probably look much closer to the guy we all thought was really good last year. As mentioned, hit cap is pretty nice. Edited February 12 by Lateralous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 4 games this week we’ll likely know by Saturday night if the playoffs are at all realistic or not.

They pretty much need to win 3 out of 4. Which means they need to win tonight for sure, as their record in the second half of back-to-backs is abysmal. I imagine they’ll be fired up to play on national TV this weekend, but I worry about the old man getting out-coached by Tortorella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nessus Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 If they lose in regulation tonight, it just has to be the end for Lindy. Sure there have been injuries, and the goaltending has been awful. But this team has the personnel to be so much better. The defense needs to be better. The power play needs to produce. Fitz has said he doesn’t want this season to go to waste, and he isn’t addressing the goaltending problem. If he wants to salvage the season, something needs to change. Can’t keep doing the same thing, and expecting better results. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general, I don't really disagree with anything you say here but over the last few games, I do think the defense has been much improved. Vitek was good on Saturday but didn't exactly have to stand on his head in the 1-0 loss. Calgary was all Vitek f'ing up and should have been 1 goal against at most and other than the Hughes turnover, we were as tight as can be expected against a really dangerous Avs team. Anyway, I will watch tonight with all the enthusiasm of heading in for a root canal. LGD! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, two bad turnovers and yes, I was talking about Luke. Jack didn't play that game but I probably shouldn't ever use their last name only.

Satans Hockey Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I'm really not in the mood to go tonight but I'll be there. Would be nice if we could have an actual dominate regulation win.
