Todd Cordell: Devils Silenced By Sound Tigers + Matteau, Pietila Ready For World Juniors

Dang it

we were doing so well too

Tedenby showed some good strength on his goal. He was covered like a blanket but muscled his way in front, got the pass from behind the net, and tucked it in. Larsson looked good on the point during power plays.

How did Butler look?

Tedenby has always been tenacious and not afraid to get into dirty areas, but he is also pretty selfish and his hockey smarts are lacking, the latter probably contributing to his perceived selfishness. If he doesn't score in the NHL, he's too much of a liability outside of the top-six and there's where his fault comes. He can get away with his defensive problems playing in the top six and contributing points, but if he's not scoring, he's useless.

The Bridgeport announcer talked a lot about how well Butler had been playing of late. He had two chances that I can remember where he was in good position, but missed the net. One was a bit strange...it was launched high into the corner. I don't know if it hit something and deflected or what. They don't show replays of much on AHL Live since it's just the arena feeds.

was Merrill on the team last year? or suspended again? He would've made it this year... if he actually played this year, correct?

Too old, and he did play last year.
