Todd Cordell: Bruins 3, Devils 0: Power play struggles continue as losing skid hits five

If this poop is still going on in the next few games Hynes and Co are gone.

As much as it should happen I don't think shero will change out hines, he might change a coach but there's really no one out thereto replace hines with

I hope when I go to the Devils vs Rangers game there is a new person behind the bench. Shero should do something innovative and hire a qualified female coach, or at the very least, hire a qualified female assistant coach when changing the coaching staff. This team shouldn’t be this bad! I also want Wood benched! Maybe that’ll motivate him.

Carlyle..

Or Shero himself... coach what he put together... get a better feel...

DOOMED

What's Adam oates doin?
Bring him in to run the power play ?

Seriously though .. the minute Bruce gets fired by the Wild, which could be any second now. .... he should be your coach... Everywhere he goes those 1st couple years are outstanding.. He completely turned the Ducks around for 5 years...
And with the skill you guys have he'd be a great fit.

Hard no. Boudreau doesn't know how to win in the playoffs. See his record in game 7s.

And when Zacha's on Hughes' line, the puck sees Hughes' stick a lot more often. I don't care about "offensively talented" with him on that line, but I'd like to see them try Boqvist on the other wing.

The Simmonds experiment really isn't working well for the Devils as a whole right now.

The Devils haven't really held their own like this article states with the exception of last night.

They completely collapsed against Winnipeg. Were absolutely dominated by Buffalo. They looked like dogsh$t for 60 minutes against Philadelphia. They only started skating during the 3rd period against Edmonton, but once again couldn't put the game away.

Honestly even during the late season run a couple years ago when they made the playoffs, for the most part they never consistently look like a good team.

Boqvist is actually a Center and if they’re now playing Zacha on the wing why not let Jesper play his real position? Leave Rooney off the game roster.

Coleman is also a Center. Why not a 4th line of Hayden-Coleman-Simmonds. Hayden usually plays RW, but not well so I dint think moving him to his off wing is a big deal.

I'd like to get to the playoffs first and then we can complain about his record there.

So Pk did not change the team for the best (so far)?

Still pretty early in the season I guess.

Oh great let me guess, PK is a terrible teammate because he has a loud personality

Boqvist and Tennyson in, Rooney and Mueller out

Foward lines:

Hall-Hischier-Palms
Wood-Zajac-Coleman
Boqvist-Hughes-Simmonds
Bratt-Zacha-Gusev

PK has been one of the few consistently bright spots so far. Solid defenseman. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you're just trying to stir the pot

Can they please win one game before I leave on my honeymoon tomorrow. Just one please.

Big big fan of this lineup. Hopefully Hynes doesn't break it up in 1 period.

Really? My eye test says that Simmonds has been pretty solid. Puck rolled on him a few times or he'd have a few from in front of the net. He's slow, but not a disaster.

I was just asking a polite question. Sorry if you felt this way.

I was just wondering how he was doing. I expect the Devils to be better this year. That's all.
