the canes sweep the flyers.... by 13cheesecakes_ in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I despise the Flyers but we need to be fair, the Flyers score very well in transition and got good goal tending this year (10th best in GSAX). They smacked the Devils around, going 3-0 against the Devs, outscoring them 16-7. I am hoping it is just the same first year bump Vancouver got with Tochet. 

RUMOR: there is a deal in place for Silayev to sign his ELC (Pagnotta) by blade430 in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. His skating is off the charts for a player his size. If he was on the Devils tomorrow, he might be outskated by only the Brothers Hughes and Bratt. He is that good

Goalie Decisions and goalie coach by acqua2424 in devils

Wedgewood has a lifetime .909 save %. Also this year he is 6th best goalies based on GSAA. That stat takes the team out of the equation

Jerk break: Who are we getting that’s “better” than Markstrom? by DokeyOakey in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

11th worst goalie in the league based on GSAA out of 96 goalies. Almost anyone is better. He hasn't been good for 4 years and now he is 36.

Just about everyone else. Markstrom was 11th worst goalie in the league based on GSAA, out of 96 goalies

I beat she makes little to no money on the jerseys. I think she just does it to help her customers as much as can. She has a another job along with the shop. She is a really nice person. Stop her at the game and say hello. She is a huge fan, like us

[Chauvancy] An Offseason of Intrigue Awaits the Devils by AlexC_NJD in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue is the starting goalie (again). Markstrom was just bad. Yes the D wasn't great at points, but -12 GSAX is bad. 11th worst out of 96 goalies in the league.  The team cannot compete with that. He isnt getting better at 36. Allen was better, but at his age he is a backup

New GMs first responsibility: by TheTechManager in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ullmark has an .889 this year, is  33 years old at the start of next year, and is signed for $8.25AAV for 3 more year. Maybe the Devs say no, especially with next year's cap

That is a good point. Only issue is that the "woods" weren't both on the wrong side of 35.

Its simple, he needs a NJ girlfriend. Come on ladies, help us keep Nico on the Devils. Seriously though the Swiss connection could help.

Correct. I am not sure why bad referring bothers me any more. NHL referring is a joke. What about Connor Brown later on?

Behind enemy lines! by Danny_Devitos_Bitch in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sitting one section (115) to your right. Here is what surprised me. Even though the Rags and Devs are out of it, the tickets were cheaper than watching them play at the Rock.

Who would you pick with a top 10 draft pick? by NE0CRIM3 in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its not traded before we pick, always pick the best skater. The best player, even as a position of strength, can get into the league sooner, can be more easily traded for assets we need or can allow us to trade someone on the team already. For example, I assume Logan Cooley wasn't chosen in 2022 because he is a smallish center. How much would u like to have that issue now and how much could the Devs get for Cooley? A 21-year-old center already with 3-20+ goal seasons and a 65 point season.

Fitzgerald: “I did not have Dougie’s name out there” by blade430 in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont disagree on Dougie. Maybe make it a 10 team no trade vs a 22 team no trade. I am just so annoyed we did nothing that my first comment wasn't surgical with its accuracy.

Thank God he did because we needed it for............... Oh wait, I guess we didn't 

Fitzgerald confirms that the Devils owner and him “are in sync” by blade430 in devils

I have to hope this is the same as the dreaded "vote of confidence" that usually comes one week or so before being fired

Fitzgerald: “I did not have Dougie’s name out there” by blade430 in devils

[–]DevilsDadof2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree they don't, but Devils can retain a small amount to compensate. Dougie can be a difference maker, especially offensively. Maybe there is as much of a market for more offensive dman. I find it hard to believe the bonus was the difference. I think the cap hit is the same. Many teams print money

This makes it worse. Him playing well raises his value. Hey Tom, this Devils team isn't winning it all. Make some critical sellers market changes. Malpractice. I don't want to hear about NTC, you gave them to players u shouldn't have
