In lieu of the standard postgame Quickie Thought fanshot; I figure I do something a little different. Nevertheless, here is the NHL.com recap for your access to the straight story, boxscore, and stats. IPB did a running game diary of tonight's game, Gulitti did a live blog as well. For a perspective from the other side, Sherry at Scarlett Ice scolds her favorite hockey team for being awful.

Did the Devils outclass the Ottawa Senators overall throughout the game?

Were Patrik Elias and Zach Parise magnificient, as justified with 4 point games?

Was it not amazing to witness not one, not two, but three power play goals by the New Jersey Devils? In one game?

Will we see three power play goals from the Devils anytime soon?

...

Probably not.

The only real downer within the game was the shorthanded goal by Jarkko Ruutu of all people. However, it can be forgiven given how well the Devils did, especially in finishing plays, right?

Lastly, was that sign was handed out at the end of the game as a promotion for a movie?

I went to this game last night.. I guess the weather was a big reason, but the Rock couldn’t have been more than a 1/3 full.

I don't know...

The announced crowd was 13,000 and change. I don’t think it was that much, but I think it was more around 11,000 or so. Some sections looked sparse, others were filled well.

The weather did suck in north Jersey. Newark was just sloppy, but other places got hit hard. And today, while the main roads are good, back roads even here in central NJ are hardened with snow and ice. I wonder how much it’ll affect tomorrow’s game.

Devils in my heart! Devils in my mind! Devils in my eyes! Devils until I die!
