Todd Cordell: NHL Gameday Preview: New Jersey Devils @ Montreal Canadiens - Game 28

Oh that fourth line.
Can we just play with three lines?

LET'S GO DEVILS!!

Let's hope that Brodeur, Gelinas, Bernier and Ryder play with a extra rush of adrenaline tonight. Also, I would rather see Sestito play instead of Janssen, not Tedenby.

Once the Devils get some of their forwards back from the IR, Tedenby should be waived with the intension to send him back to the Albany Devils where he can play on a regular basis and be productive. I doubt anyone team will pick him up if he is waived.

Severson made it !

Barf city at that 4th line makes me actually miss one of those bums like Kostopolous. Excuse me, "Cantstopolous"

Habs 6 devils 2

Severson made it !

I think they still need to cut it down to 25. You should see the people screaming murder that Nurse didn't make it.

I read only one more defensman will be cut. Really hope he makes. I wonder if Lou would let Mattau go even though he's in the AHL. That's if he would even make it too.

I don't know much about a lot of the guys and how they are doing this year. But it seems to me like quite a few or questioning the Bigras selection. So hopefully it's him who gets cut. How is the USA's goalies looking this year without Gibbson?

Don't know much about the goalies. Stolarsz is big and supposedly solid. Alot of people had Santini making the team after the evaluation camp and I don't see how his play in college could have hurt those chances, but obviously anything can happen as seen by nurse. Not really sure what to think about Mattau. He was one of the last cuts last year but he hasn't exactly been great since then.

matteau should make it. he's been on fire lately with 10 points in his last 8 games in the ahl and generally players in the ahl are released for world juniors without much issue

Its up to the team and I could see Lou pulling some poop like he shouldn't be leaving the team midseason.

No Nurse, and no Domi, are really interesting ommissions for Team Canada.

I don't get it worst case scenario is what ? he gets hurt? best case senario he plays like one of the best guys there and raises his stock so we can't ship him off for something better.

Been hearing that. I am just glad Severson has a chance to make it he seem like a good kid who deserves it. Would of been nice for the Leafs to of let Rielly go and if Monahan hadn't of been injured he would of been another one who possibly could of been there. I am not as upset about Brown guy is what like 20 ? might have something to do with him dominating teens.

And people wonder why Josefson doesn't produce. Pretty sure these are about the quality of linemates he almost always has.

Yeah. I might have sent Larsson when he was a rookie too. I think it will only help young players get a little confidence.

Yea he is usually playing with two armless guys out there it's a shame cause it's him and Tedenby who should of been coming into there own about now to burden the load and had they of we wouldn't have went out and blew our loads on Clowe, Ryder, Brunner, Olesz and hopefully we still would of gotten Jagr

Still don't see him becoming anything more than a 3rd liner.

Well I think he likely should of played another year of jr's but he (frank)ed that up so I think it would be nice for him to be playing against kids he might be physically bigger and stronger then.

They have 8 defesemen on the camp roster, will need to cut 1. Hopefully that's not Severson, hopefully he gets a top 6 spot as well.

They usually like the 19 year olds something that he is and is plus 10 and 21 points in 22 games should give them no reason to not give him a pretty big role. I think by popular demand though that Bigras is the guy who is cut on D.

I'd be very surprised if he doesn't make the team. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in a top-4 role.

Me either but at least he is that. Most of our draft picks recently especially forwards don't even make the NHL as regulars. I think he can be a regular his two way play and penalty killing ability should be enough to at least stay in the lineup. If that's all he becomes oh well obviously we wanted more out of him but it's better than nothing.
