The team traveling, and playing back to back games had much more energy in the third period than the team playing on a day’s rest at home. Good game by the Devils.

On Ruff / Severson...
Ruff has been coaching forever and is one of the all time greats. Sevs play proves Ruff knows what buttons to press and when.
I love Ruff. |

I don't think Marino not playing then Graves getting hurt during the game forcing Ruff to give Severson significant minutes is really a sign of good coaching. Severson should just be playing more and specifically away from Smith. |

Lindy Ruff stinks. Damon Severson is good. That sums up the conversation. |

I hadnt watched the last few games, so I didnt even know people got hurt. But nonetheless, point still stands Ruff is one of the best. |

I don't really see it. In the 0-5-1 stretch we had some spotty goaltending performances and we faced a lot of really good goalies. I'm thinking the way the league works is just having your goalie be on a heater for the most part. And usually the coach gets credit for that mistakenly. |

tkachuk will only engage with a tough opponent when the ref has a hold of him...or his back is turned. She's a chicken poop fake tough guy. |

Marino is week to week with an upper body injury, and Graves is still being evaluated with a lower body injury.
Palat is close to joining the team at practice. He's been skating on his own and doing full workouts. |

Going back to Blackwood wow. Vanecek fantasy owners must be going crazy. Gonna be interesting to see how that bottom pair works out. I also read Smith as Ty Smith and got anxious lol. |

Man. Really goes to show how important goaltending is….
Any update on Bernier? I thought he was “close” to returning weeks ago.
Also, what happened to Bill Spaulding? |

@hayyyshayyy
Mackenzie Blackwood allowed 2.18 goals above expected through two periods, per
@NatStatTrick
We've had a lot of defensive breakdowns tonight - it's to be expected with Marino and Graves out - but this is really a standard Blackwood performance here. I'm pretty sure we're going to ride out of Vanecek and Blackwood for the rest of the season and not make any moves. You always have to grossly overpay for goaltending mid-season. |

Once again the Devils were the better team, and fail to pick up points. They convincingly outplayed the best team in the league, but hard to overcome Blackwood being Blackwood in the second period when you hit two crossbars and have a puck that barely doesn't cross the goal line.
Hard to win in this league when you don't have somebody between the pipes that you can trust. 4 goals against on 1.82 xGs from Blackwood. That's the difference. This team deserves better than that. |
