Game #25: Sloppy Saturday – Jets 4, Devils 3 (OT)

Game #16 – Devils 4, Penguins 2

Even for a weekend afternoon, 12 PM is still an ungodly early time to start an NHL game.  Of course, when you’re trying to cater to every part of your fanbase including overseas fans (re: new Swiss fans jumping on … Continue reading

Game #4 – Devils 3, Stars 0

After winning their first three games in impressive fashion, the Devils’ challenge last night against the Stars was to avoid a dreaded letdown against a middle of the pack Western Conference team playing on a back-to-back.  My challenge, apparently was … Continue reading
