Devils captain Jamie Langenbrunner did not make the trip with the Devils to North Carolina and will miss at least the next two games of the team's Eastern Conference quarterfinal against the Hurricanes with a lower-body injury, general manager Lou Lamoriello said.

Langenbrunner was injured in the second period of a 2-1 overtime loss in Game 2 on Friday night.

well now we see the worth of the coaching staff

shuffle the talent (maybe Shanny with Parise and Zajac... just anyone but Elias... I'd prefer Clarkson but whatever)

this team CAN still win these games... but they gotta play the A game... in the playoffs where that should be a GIVEN anyway

Not much of a surprise here. Being that this is the Devils and the playoffs there is no way you will ever know how serious the injury is but the fact that he isn't even traveling with the team is a bad sign. I have confidence in this group but this is a real tough break for these guys. They proved during the season that they could deal with injury adversity but there really isn't much time to adjust here.

BTW, why wouldn't he make the fvcking trip? He is the fvcking leader of this team, why leave him home? It might do him well to be around the guys and vice versa.

Mostly because if you fvcking want him back before the fvcking end of the fvcking series he should probably fvcking rest the ankle/groin/whatever and fvcking stay within fvcking close fvcking proximity to the fvcking medical staff and fvcking therapists that will fvcking get him ready ASAFP.....

If losing Jamie Langenbrunner moves us from cup contenders to a first round knockout, we weren't going anywhere anyway.

I'm not sure that's true...he's that important.

However, this series is still winnable without Jamie.

Lines will be interesting, but you know Holik is chomping at the bit. To tell you the truth, penalties or not, someone needs to handle Erik Staal, Holik should be the guy to stir sh!t up and pound some heads.
