Todd Cordell: G14 New Jersey Devils vs Vancouver Canucks: Squish The Fish

Anyone hear anything about Elias lately? I'd like these lines a bit more if they looked like:

Cam- Henrique- Stemp
Elias- Zajac- Palmieri
Tlusty- Josefson- Kalinin
Farnham- Gio- Tootoo

Whenever he decides he is ok it's "lingering"

Yeah but squish the sea dwelling mammal sounds just downright silly.

I'd go:
Cammalleri - Henrique - Stempniak
Tlusty - Zajac - Palmieri
Elias - Josefson - Kalinin
Matteau - Gionta - Tootoo

I don't think throwing Elias back into the top 6 is a great idea, and this way his minutes can be managed and it gives us some more scoring depth. I've also liked the way Elias and Josefson have played in the past. As for the 4th line. I don't like Farnham, O'Neil hasn't really done much and Matteau gives us more size while also not wasting a 21 yo 1st round pick on the bench.

I'm ok with that too. The main premise of my line hopes was get Tootoo off the 3rd line and get O'neill out of the lineup.

LETS GO DEVILS !!

They do this like every game. Don't really understand why, maybe if someone tweaks something they are good to go.

Well, I was more concerned that we're benching a young defenseman rather than letting him play and develop.

Bingo

What a garbage call.

That's a bullpoop call. No world where that is a 5 minute interference penalty. Yeah, it was interference, but it's not Larsson fault that he's checking this weak kid and he can't stay up.

What a garbage call.

Yeah I dont see how thats a 5min major for interference

Penalty sure, game misconduct I dont think that was deserved, looked more like shoulder on shoulder no a head shot

He got some head because the guy was leaning over. But Larsson didn't lift his arm at all.

fair enough...

Never realized McCann was such a Poosy, thoughts?

I didn't think we signed cammy for passing, but that's what we're getting. The guy is so smart.

Burrows seems like a nice guy.
