Game #49: Meh Monday – Devils 6, Penguins 3

Game #48: Snowy Saturday – Ducks 3, Devils 2

Game #47: Tired Thursday – Islanders 4, Devils 1

Game #46: Terrible Tuesday – Blue Jackets 4, Devils 1

Game #40: Frenzied Friday – Devils 3, Coyotes 2 (SO)

After getting less than four hours of sleep Thursday in the middle of a stressful weekend, I wasn’t even thinking of watching the Devils’ game in Arizona Friday. Particularly after their horrendous loss in Dallas two nights ago. So I … Continue reading
