Despite the Devils’ 5-3-2 start, last night’s home game against Columbus was critically important for a number of reasons, the obvious one being it was a division game against a team weakened by massive injury concerns.  Among others, the Jackets … Continue reading

Devils prepare for home opener after finishing a (mostly) successful trip

Perhaps it’s for the best if I don’t see any highlights (or lowlights as they were) of last night’s 6-2 loss in Washington.  What I heard on the radio was more than enough with Cory Schnieder’s misplay on the fifth … Continue reading

Devils Game #2: A rare laugher in Florida

Despite the Devils’ Opening Night win on Thursday I was prepared for more angst last night.  After all, our trips to Sunrise the last couple years have both led to soul-crushing defeats.  Even in 2012 when we beat the Panthers … Continue reading

DeBoer, Devils still don’t get it

Let’s face it, the state of area hockey as a whole is laughably bad, no matter which corner of the local triangle you want to look at.  In one corner, you have the Isles who have been buried in last … Continue reading

Devils burn the Sabres in OT with Bernier’s goal

After a reprieve of sorts in Carolina on Friday with a rare four-goal outburst in the third period of a 5-2 win over the Canes, tonight’s ugly yet gritty effort against the Sabres was more the norm for the Devils … Continue reading

Zajac’s bizarre OT winner vs Ducks

Travis Zajac scored probably the oddest goal during last night’s Devils’ 3-2 overtime win over the Ducks. His redirection off a skate resulted in a bizarre OT winner when Anaheim defenseman Ben Lovejoy accidentally cleared the puck off Corey Perry’s … Continue reading
