So, pretty much what the Devils need right now is someone not afraid to take cheap shots at the goalie (without taking a penalty) every now and then and knock that goalie around, to be successful to get rebounds in. Gionta needs to get back to his old self again.


I recall a certain someone crying foul in last year's playoffs when Marty was harassed in the manner you want your devils to play now. wink

And don't give me the "oh but that was different..." excuse talk_hand

Sharks are 4-0 baby! dancing After beating Columbus tonight they now have the best start in franchise history. Not the most impressive stat but for a 17 year old team it's not bad. Especially for a rookie coach.

It comes from watching too much politics (on my part at least) tongue

DurronFan: Well, that's understandable in this case. peace

My last comment about the Devs/Ranger game the other night.

Marty was caught off guard by that first goal. He would've caught that if he was in the zone. tongue

I acknowledge it was a fluke goal. They happen. Still amusing wink

Well with that out of the way, Rangers finally lose! To the Sabres no less! Are the entertaining and high-flying Sabres of the past back this season? I kinda hope they get back to the playoffs.

I like the Sabes but there's still 80 some odd games to play in the season so that still gives them plenty of time to screw it up. They use to pretty fast in the offensivly but they seem to have lost that edge. East coast teams use to be more deffensive minded so I don't know if they just seemed fast compared to the rest of the east or if the rest of the east just caught up to them.

I still can't wait to see how Boston plays out over the season.

The Avs are off to an 0-3 start. plain They have no problem scoring goals. They have one of the best defensive lineups in the league. So what's the problem? Budaj better start playing like he's the #1 goaltender or this team is going to have major issues.

Aye, the Sabres took down both the Rangers' winstreak (still tied the team record) and perfect penalty kill, alas.

Partially their own fault- Mara took that game misconduct in retaliation to the hit and damage he took last year from that guy, and that was enough to give them the lead and press that advantage. Sabres had a strong forecheck too.

Devils win 1-0 tonight in Atlanta. Didn't get to see the game so I'll catch up on the highlights later. Apparently Brian Rolston lost and edge and got a knee injury after hitting the boards hard while he was the one that scored the lone goal. sad

Marty gets his 97th career shutout and is only 7 away from breaking Sawchuck's record at 103.

Marty also gets career win No. 541 to move within 10 of Roy's record...

The countdown continues... devil

Devils win 4-3 in a shootout, bringing Marty up to 542 in the wins column. devil

Also, the Wings won against the Rags in OT thanks to Marian Hossa scoring his 300th goal. Nice work Wings. devil
