Consider your wish granted.

Same lines as yesterdays practice.

Nothing screams excitement like a Wednesday night loss against the Coyotes.

Damn, I knew Arizona was bad, but holy poop. 1 SOG in a period?

I can see it now. Blackwood stops 7/8 and we lose in OT, lol.

1st period was a 20 minute power play. Fitting that we only scored one goal.

Incredible.

lol

Ok. Back to looking at potential top 5 draft picks.

You just may be right

The team is once again getting goaltender'd. Its absurd how bad Blackwood is.

Blackwood couldn't stop a beach ball. Please put anybody else in goal. This is enough.

I at least thought they could take a 1-1 tie into OT. They’ve managed to fail to to meet even the most meager of expectations, lol. Mighty loud boos for an arena that’s only about 1/3 full.

shows what kind of moron you are. Blackwood is the worst goalie in the league.

I know this is a stupid question but i'm going to ask in anyway. If the devils no show this 3rd period is that FINALLY enough for ownership or management to poop can Ruff? Its really bad when you lose to a team that has no interest in winning?

Devils fans have seen some poop over the last decade, this feels like a whole new low.

Short answer no, long answer extension incoming.

Blackwood may be new my punching bag. Congrats PK

we've been really critical of the coaching staff and obviously Ruff decides who is in net every night so there is some burden on him to start the goalie that is going to give the team the best shot to win the game. I'm just not sure who you can blame for being this bad other than Blackwood. I'm seeing that the expected goals against this game should be 1 which is just embarrassing, especially given that we've dominated so hard.

At least PK is gone in 50ish games. I have no idea who plays goal for the Devils in the future.

I'm not in any way trying to defend Ruffs performance overall, but I don't know what you do at this point. Start Gillies for a stretch, call up Daws?

If you're the coach and these are the goalies you're given what else are you supposed to do?
