We're outplaying them until we get a powerplay.

Yep! Then we get a chance like that one Gio had and Reimer still shuns it like it's nothing.

I always hate saying things like this, but this next period is the season. Every other team on the bubble is winning tonight. If we get nothing out of this game I don't see us coming back up into the top 8.

maybe he was actually in pain.. I get it, you're mad. 4 losses in row, soon to be 5. Must suck to fall out of the playoffs and have hardly no prospects with an aging team.

I have to agree, if isles and rags win and we lose in regulation that will be too much to make up

Man leafs might make the playoffs for the first time in like, a decade and fans don't know how to act...we can lose and we'll be ok, we can miss the playoffs cause us missing the playoffs is an anomaly, the leafs MAKING the playoffs is also an anomaly. Win something significant before you bash a fanbase.

It was a charlie horse... every player who gets a charlie horse stays on the ice cuz it's like a kidney shot... it stuns the strength of the leg.

Hardly no prospects? No, we just don't have any publicity on our prospects. Unless you actually knew who Henrique was before he almost won rookie of the year...

Game also isn't over, yet...

Typical outsider assuming everyone on the Devils is 40 years old. Kovy is 29, Zajac 27, Henrique 23, Loktionov 22, Clarkson 29. Our D is pretty old but we have several solid D prospect (Larsson, Merrill, Gelanis). Don't judge our team's age just by our goalies.

And you guys should understand our plight! Great start, and then slowly crumbling out of the playoff picture...hasn't that been the story of the Maple Leafs for the last 5 years or so?

Weak prospects? Try Merrill severson and Boucher.

Plus NJ is one of the most likely teams to suddenly have a player come up and play brilliant and nobody knows who the hell he is.

At a certain point if you haven't won in over 40 years I don't think you can brag about that...

Im not judging by the goalie, Brodeur is still an NHL goalie. The fact that no one can step up and pick up the slack left by Kovalchuk is a sign of a weak system.
