I'm not that hard on him; he's a good depth guy and plays positional/collapsing d well, but he's not the best defender on a rush (which is probably why he gets penalties to begin with).

He plays with a lot of heart, and that's exactly what NJ needed after bowing out to Philly in 5 when they signed him.

Garon has played terribly. Watching on the Lightning feed and after almost every Devils goal their color guy has just groaned

I mean I love his physical game and blocks shots like a tender. He just is so uncoordinated and slow.

Carter


Harrold and volchenkov out against every Tampa goal.

Bad night. The Thompson one was weak, but it's hard to stop Stamkos from scoring.

He's got a long contract. Highest paid dman and he's bottom pairing guy.

It takes a special team to blow 2 two goal leads in one game.

What a joke! Almost as ridiculous as my shot hitting the crossbar, over the glass, and breaking the windshield of this kid's truck in the parking lot. yep, that happened today.

That loss was pathetic.

It deserves a 5 o'clock morning skate.

they took us to 7 games.. so maybe with Zubrus and Kovalchuk we'll be better than last year's panthers??.. maybe?

Arguably we're doing exactly the same to how we were last year, difference is last year we won all of these shootouts instead of losing them!

Very sick of the shootout in general, bring on 10 minute OT.

Must win game tomorrow against a team we are better than.

Now all we need is for them to report that the Devils got a high profile player, then report that no...actually they didn't and they will have pulled off the ever elusive "Bruin Trifecta"!

Team spent the last couple days at a resort. Wtf that pisses me off even more. I hope Florida kicks the poop outta us. We don't deserve to make the playoffs.

i think after the crazy compressed schedule that they can have a few days at a resort to relax. Coach skated them super hard yesterday. They looked good tonight, looked fresh.. just didn't finish. Great PK in OT, but this is a crime.
