Vancouver Canucks at New Jersey Devils, Dec 2, 2009 7:00 PM EST
Really, we're playing the Canucks? Well, I guess I can see how that could be fun. Anyway, tonight starts an interesting experiment, in that Fischer is going to be attempting to comment live from his phone at The Rock tonight. Should be cool.
TV: MSG Plus (HD)
Radio: WFAN 660 AM
Previews: Fischer's is below, and Nucks Misconduct is one of the best Canuck blogs there is for a Vancouver preview.
Song to Get You Pumped Up But Also Make You Think Deeply About Tonight's Game: Vancouver native, Canuck fan and How I Met Your Mother star Cobie Smulders brings us Robin Sparkles' "Let's Go to the Mall".
Join us in the comments. As always: Keep the comments clean, you keep them on-topic (tangents OK, talking about the Devils/Vancouver Canucks is OK, but I don't want to turn this into a "You're getting really lazy with these" thread), and support the New Jersey Devils.

At the arena now, saw a whopping 6 Vancouver fans. Of course it’s real early, not even close to gametime. I wonder how many will be at The Rock in total?

One aside
Nucks Misconduct is reppin Pantera in their preview. Had I known that, this would have had some Exhorder repped.
(Let’s see who gets this…)

Looked like a deflection; time to see if NJ will wake up.

ANOTHER deflection and this game is already beginning to get ugly. Where are the Devils of Saturday?

Needless to say the fans aren’t happy. And they should be. The Devils have NOT shown up so far.

Excellent reaction play by Bergfors. The goal certainly gives the Devils a lifeline. But will the passing and decision making improve on offense? It’s hurting NJ all period long. Among other problems

Like the game against the islanders, the devils came out like they were drugged and slowly gained some kind of momentum. The Canucks knocked us down and started repeatedly kicking us, but we managed to get ourselves back up and throw some punches ourselves.
Lets keep the momentum going into the second
Poor Andy Greene. If I were a Devil, I would never want to perform well because at the end of the period/game I’d be forced into an interview by Stan Fischler. It’s like, ‘Congrats, Andy Greene, for helping the Devils get out of the three-goal-hole they dug for themselves less than ten minutes into the first period. We shall now reward you with an awkward conversation with Stan Fischler.’
Elias came off the ice…I’m concerned

Elias is back and playing. I’m relieved. Devils look stronger to start.

The game has been very even, both teams being denied shooting chances. Devils would do well to try less long passes.

Elias made a nice play to set up Mottau, but Luongo is raising his game
No one said this would be easy.

That should have been boarding; the refs missed a dangerous play on Zharkov. Devils look better but still n eed one

As I alluded to before,
I really felt they missed quite a few in the last few minutes after the Zharkov penalty.
Defense was sloppy as mud and now momentum is clearly back to the Nucks. GREAT (ugh)

Why in the world did the defense GO FOR THE PUCKCARRIER?? GUARD THE PASS!
Needless to say the crowd hates this.

Why yes, the fans HATED that PP “performance.” I’m still waiting for the real Devils to show up.

More than a few fans are leaving now. I don’t blame them. They paid to see a competitive hockey game and this isn’t it.

I figured out that this isn’t their best game…. but how’s Marty playing?
Not one of his best nights, not that he was helped at crucial times.

With less than 3 minutes, I am left here wondering where it all went wrong. Oh, right, poor defending, poor passing, and two awful line changes. Fair play to Vancouver, they were good save for a few miscues and bad luck.
