Rebuild vs. retool – an organization at a crossroads

Posted on November 8, 2014 by hasan4978

I could bother to complain about the Devils’ most recent performance – a drab 4-2 loss in Detroit last night that wasn’t even as close as the score would indicate – or the fact I wasted time watching/listening to this … Continue reading →

Losses, more injuries have Devils singing the Blues

Posted on November 7, 2014 by hasan4978

Since I had other plans I watched almost none of Tuesday’s 1-0 home shutout against the Blues, and little of last night’s 4-3 loss in St. Louis.  Clearly I missed very little until the Devils’ sudden and unexpected three-goal outburst … Continue reading →

Henrique, Larsson rally Devils to needed win over Blue Jackets

Posted on November 2, 2014 by hasan4978

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

Posted on October 17, 2014 by hasan4978

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

Posted on October 12, 2014 by hasan4978

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 →

Shades of 2012 in Devils’ wild season opener at Philly

Posted on October 10, 2014 by hasan4978

For the first thirty-five minutes of the Devils’ season opener last night, things couldn’t have gone much better on the scoreboard.  Despite being outshot in every period, the Devils jumped out in front 3-0 before disaster struck in the final … Continue reading →

Devils camp opens without contreversy, but plenty of intrigue

Posted on September 18, 2014 by hasan4978

In too many recent seasons, the Devils have entered camp with an overriding question or contreversy that needed to be addressed.  In 2010, it was the cap/roster issues due to the monster Ilya Kovalchuk contract that led to the team … Continue reading →

Devils give sellout crowd a big, fat lump of coal

Posted on December 28, 2013 by hasan4978

In actuality, last night’s crowd of 16,592 (apparently the new sellout number) got an 18-by-24 inch size Andy Greene poster in the first post-Christmas game of the season…it was the game itself that was the lump of coal, as the … Continue reading →

Devils’ D leads the way offensively in wild comeback

Posted on December 22, 2013 by hasan4978

Not too long ago, the Devils were hard-pressed to get sixteen goals from their defense in a season, much less the first half of a season the way they have so far this year.  It would take us a month … Continue reading →

DeBoer, Devils still don’t get it

Posted on December 11, 2013 by hasan4978

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 →
