Few things I am worried about are those lines look horrible once again Elias at center and Henrique on the third line wing ? I don't think Loktionov has done anything to warrant dethroning Henrique of his natural position and having Ryder on the other wing doesn't justify it either. Also with Clowe not playing we are really going to get pushed around and intimidated tonight. Other then that I am out of things to say since nothing has changed or appears to be heading in the direction of change. Marty might have been alright but he has gotten all the weaker teams and hasn't been as good as Schneider in my mind Pete is going to hurt us with the amount of games he plays Marty.

Well...having a winning team for 2 seasons will do that to you.....

They will just be like the Canucks and Caps of pasts they will get to the point where they are the best season team in the league and they will continuously drop the ball in the play offs until they ultimately miss their window of opportunity and fall back to being the joke of the league.

Agreed and the pairings he keeps roling out on defense, if Sal keeps getting big minutes we are in trouble

Todd when do you think something happens to the defense, like a move or healthy scratch?

Nice to see urbom getting minutes with an NHL squad...makes you wonder how and why we keep rolling old d men and not turn to youth with size, skill and some speed

Brunner with Elias....he hasn't scored since they split

Haha No worries man I wouldn't put it past Pete. I like those combos a lot more but how long do they stay that way? one period? 10 minutes? 5 minutes ? The thing that worries me the most is the one thing that could end up shedding the most light for us and that's the amount of toughness dressed tonight for Ottawa. They are either going to really work us or we will take advantage of some of the players they are being forced to play.

Chris Rooney reffing tonight's game. We're going to be on the PK half the game.

Goals for/against per game:
New Jersey - 1.83/3.17

Power play/Penalty Kill:
New Jersey - 6.7%/81.2%

This no bueno.

Always interesting to hear how this reffing business has the same effect on fans all across the league.

Hopefully Teddy shows something tonight & vs. Rangers. The 2nd line with Zajac & Ryder is the best spot for him.

Marty has not looked good his first 3 games. I would make the move to Schneider as clear #1

I still do not know why Fayne is not in the lineup.

Tedenby's in, it's a start at least. Speed is the need!

Well...having a winning team for 2 seasons will do that to you.....
- bigjersey3

Well... one season and a half dozen games

Good luck tonight, boys. I wish you could be desperate for a win against some other team, lol.
