OT: NJ Devils 2023-2024 Thread

Can you stop with that bs take already.

He’s obvious not a shutdown defenseman but look at his production

His good outweighs his soft defensive play.
My take is as valid as your take. We have quite a bit of production as well as guys who can play PP point. We need guys who can play defense & he can't. Soft & slow. Living on his laurels. He stinks.

Devils gave up the 8th fewest goals last year and had the third best goal differential overall.

There is no major problem with this team.

While I get frustrated sometimes with his defensive play, over the past 5 years he ranks 3rd in the league in goals from a D-Man. You can't just replace that

He was a +24 last year 5v5. Best amongst our d-men. Ill agree he’s pretty slow and not very physical but he is very good. Saying he stinks is ridiculous.
 
Nice to WIN! Thanks Jack, Vanacek was good enough. I hope the team takes the lesson, and comes to play from the opening face off.


Disappointing ESPN+ had this game, they didn't show the opening ceremony.

I am NOT a Disney fan, but you need to get ESPN+ if you don't have it. League's are selling more games exclusively, as live sports is one of a few things people watch in real time. Over 1,000 hockey games. Missing your team hurts your quality of life, not the mouse.
 
And just like that it’s tied..this team is so talented the game can change in an instant
 
Bratt and Hughes are worth price of admission

Nico Dawson and Timo quite 5 periods , not sure what other team could do if both top lines are on their game.
 
And shootouts…devils have to have the worst shootout record since it was implemented

All time, they’re actually top 10 in shootout wins. Parise, Kovalchuk and Langenbrunner with Brodeur on the other end would carry them. Since 2013-14 though, they’ve won 27 of 85 shootouts. Worst in the league by a country mile.

Just pull the goalie with 90 seconds left in OT and go for broke. I’d rather go down swinging with these weapons than mail in a loss in a shootout.
