Posted on April 5, 2019 by

In a lot of ways last night’s penultimate game was a look back at the way things used to be for the Devils.  Specifically, last night’s game in Carolina which clinched a playoff spot for a resurgent Canes team returning … Continue reading →

Game #77: Moody Monday – Devils 3, Sabres 1

Posted on March 26, 2019 by

Game #76: Devils 2, Coyotes 1 (SO)

Posted on March 23, 2019 by

Game #64: Weary Wednesday – Flames 2, Devils 1

Posted on February 27, 2019 by

In one sense, today’s result was a best-case scenario for the Devils, lose but don’t lose by such a overwhelming margin that it destroys the confidence of your goaltender – tonight being Mackenzie Blackwood, playing for the first time since … Continue reading →

Game #51: Satisfying Saturday – Devils 3, Canadiens 2 (OT)

Posted on February 2, 2019 by

In a season full of dissapointments, today’s 3-2 OT win in Montreal was a rare bright spot, mainly because it saw younger players play a starring role in a comeback win on the road. All three goals were scored by … Continue reading →

Game #50: Ticket Thursday – Rangers 4, Devils 3

Posted on February 1, 2019 by

While I couldn’t watch most of last night’s latest disaster, getting the first update of 2-0 in the first period then all the subsequent updates after that – Rangers score with seconds remaining in the first, then come back to … Continue reading →
