This is what happens when you actually give hamonic legit time on the power play. DROP THE HAMMER TRAVIS!

Well that didn't last long. Good job screening nabokov strait you idiot.

so typical of this team to immediately kill their own momentum like that

Devils trap is killing us. Only JT Nabby Streit and Hammer are noticeable

This is really coming out again. Trap? Devils are forechecking really well. A trap is a passive 1-2-2, the Devils are playing an agressive 1-2-2 high in the offensive zone. Two different things.

How does Strait look early on?

You guys just don't have enough firepower. It will be worse when 91 leaves for Canada.

Whatever...

Is it just me or does Kyle Okposo trip over the blue line more then any other player in the history of Hockey????

I heard from my sorcerers, he recently got nipple rings, and they've become infected because he wasn't following the proper process for cleaning them.

I've been saying for a few years now that he has some of the worst balance of anyone on the team.he always seems to be stumbling around in traffic.

he needs to learn to keep a wider stance. Perhaps the jaromir jagr school of skating.

''Okposo is a total still...he has no wheels, cant hit anything or anyone. He looks like a headless chicken Playing hockey..

Year 5 of the rebuild and in the final minute of a 1 goal game Keith Aucoin is on the ice. Best part he was one of their best forwards all night

what we learned:

finley and carkner - terrible idea, whoever paired those two together did it while trying to suppress giggles

aucoin - power play time and the extra skater under a minute to go? seriously?

strait - liked him, simple, mobile, doesn't make stupid mistakes

MM JT and KO looked like they'd never played together before

what pissed me off:

it's 3 minutes to go on opening night with a packed crowd down a goal and after 113 days of a lockout and you show urgency by icing the puck twice and getting how many shots on goal? what? ZERO

Boyes looked like he might have a shot at contributing...on the third line.

Why in the world is the fourth line getting so much ice time?

So after we get a massive momentum shift by scoring a goal and tying the game, we respond with the 4th line on the next shift? FFS WAKE UP. Use the energy the team will have and put anyone else out there. I don't care that there was a power play, JT has been playing all year, put him out next shift (it was the second unit that scored) but for all that is good in this world you don't put the slugs out and give New Jersey a break.

Disgusting. Using Aucoin so much over players who had been playing in Bridgeport and who have more upside, youth, skill, drive and size was shameful to watch. Playing Finley with Carkner was hilarious, scratch him and use Hickey. At least he can skate.

The number of hard shots Brodeur had to face tonight was less than 5. That's ridiculous. I'm more pissed off than I was last season when we were shut out by Florida to open the season. This team looks substantially worse.

Well that didn't last long. Good job screening nabokov strait you idiot.

I blame that goal on JT. He floated between two devils and didn't take the one he should have, who actually took the shot on net. In any case, it was destined. I didn't even expect us to score a goal after the first 10 minutes of the game.
