The Devils don't have any forwards better than d-man Peter Harrold to put in the lineup. Or are they just dressing 7 d in case Larsen struggles?
- 12,9 and 22

The latter as I understand it. This will be Larsson's first taste of playoff hockey and it's coming against a very fast group of forwards.

Why no confidence? Any team going against Bryz should have some confidence.
- 12,9 and 22

We are missing our best player, and they have a healthy and deep offense. The difference will have to be significant between Brodeur and Bryz for us to win.

Seriously? Do you think the Flyers are that good? Would you feel the same about the Rangers?

It is annoying that the announcers like to pick on Kovalchuk. The anti-european, Russians in particular, media bias is ridiculous.

I seriously doubt that we're in real big trouble because Kovy is out. He's basically been a liability for the last 5 games with his injury anyway, so if anything, we might look better.

Philly is not anywhere as good as we made them look in the latter part of game 1. Their defense and goaltending blow, as evidenced in the Pitt series. We just need to take advantage of that.

A mix of both, to be honest. Harrold has playoff experience and anyone else we would throw in, would not. Janssen and Boulton make the fourth line useless, whereas Harrold is very good offensively and he is a great skater with great speed. It also gives us a fall-back option, but he is better or just as good as anyone we would put there.

so we're going to try to win whats left of this series... without this..

i know its a team game, but you'd be nuts to tell me any team would be better off without this weapon in the arsenal.

but then again, he's been a weak link for a few games now, so maybe we'll be stronger as a team with him out. Point is, a HEALTHy Kovalchuk is non-existent for this series. we only waited the whole year for this time.. annd now he's gone.

Josefson can't come back soon enough..

Which lot? Green lot right in front of the practice arena? You'll be fine. Prob get heckled a lil from the distance but nothing out of the ordinary. Not many people really tailgate anyway as it's right downtown.... most everyone is in the bars prior to puck drop.

Hope this helps!

This game is real even so far. Devils just need to keep it up and not let that fourth line match-up cost us. It was just one miscoverage and miscommunication by Gionta and Fayne.

I don't know. Check NJTransit, I believe you can take a train from Philly to Newark, but it does require changing trains.
