Devils’ season ends once again in Raleigh, fittingly in excruciating fashion
Never has such an inevitable result been more annoying, other than I suppose the 2008 playoffs where we lost in five games to a Ranger team we couldn’t even beat in open play during eight games of the regular season … Continue reading

Devils begin postseason this weekend with a cloud of uncertainty
In my recap of Devils-Canes playoff history I pretty well glossed over the most recent of the series, and the only one where a majority of the players were involved with – the second-round matchup two years ago. With good … Continue reading

In memoriam: Ray Shero (1962-2025)
A lot of times in media, people use the words stunned or shocked a little too liberally but it’s not hyperbole to say pretty much me and the entire hockey world was shocked to see the news of Ray Shero’s … Continue reading
Devils’ team and GM have both failed the fans in 2025
In many ways, the Devils’ disappointing 2025 came to a head yesterday after what can be charitably described as a puzzling, incomplete trade deadline by our joke of a general manager, which was capped off by yet another predictably dreadful … Continue reading
Still-struggling Devils at a crisis point after Hughes injury in Vegas
I’ve been wringing my hands for two months with this Devils team, not wanting to go completely off the deep end in part because of how awful the bottom of the East is – after all, the team is still … Continue reading

Devils finally have a return of good form on Lemaire night
Last time I blogged I termed the Devils’ slump a mini-crisis, it certainly became a major one since then – no doubt about it. After a troubling 1-4-1 road trip, the Devils did return home and put up a good … Continue reading

Carrick Plays Unlikely Overtime Hero for Rangers in Stronger Effort
Sometimes, hard work pays off. It did for the Rangers in a well-deserved 3-2 overtime win over the Devils at 33rd and 7th on Thursday night. It was their second victory over the last three in what’s a more optimistic … Continue reading

Devils Dominate and Troll Rangers
If it had been a prize fight, they would have stopped it early. On a day when Peter Laviolette made Chris Kreider a healthy scratch, the Rangers were no match for the Devils in a 5-0 laugher at The Prudential … Continue reading

Devils finish tough five-game homestand with seven points out of ten
I’m only being half flip with my title here…for most of this season the Devils have certainly found it tougher sledding in front of their home fans at the Rock than they did playing anywhere in the rest of the … Continue reading
Key Blueshirts’ Disappearing Act Wearing Thin
The Rangers showed little passion in a disappointing 5-1 loss to the Devils at home. Their opponent gave them several chances to make it a game. Key Blueshirts disappear in loss. Continue reading
