I just feel that it would be…apropos for tonight.

I just realized its been nearly a month since the team had a home game. I guess that along with both team’s recent games may explain the tepid mood. Plenty of uneasiness in the air, but its early for the crowd.

watching from Va.
I really wanna be there! This game and Friday’s game are huge! I feel this is what the Devils need. Playing at home I hope will get them back in the swing of things. I have not lost any hope in my team! :<) LETS GO DEVILS
I’m only going to post between periods this evening and after the game.
The Rangers have 1 l in their last 2 games...
Just what we need, another team simmering to break out of a slump.
Good start I suppose?

That was an important penalty kill, hopefully the game will settle down for NJ.

I think it still has its place in hockey, so long as it’s conducted by the unwritten rules.

Jamie's 40th assist of the game
I’d wager if you told me Jamie had 40 assists in March, I’d be a happy guy.
definantly more energy.

Anyone else liked that Board play and cycling Parise-Zajac-Zubrus had to finish the period???
I Like the way that line played.
by Matthew Ventolo on Mar 10, 2010 7:44 PM EST reply actions
I did, but I noticed that it was a little unorganized
often more than one of them would go behind the net at a time… only one needs to go back there, the rest need to stay back and be ready for the centering pass.
Agreed!
by Nothinggoespast on Mar 10, 2010 7:45 PM EST up reply actions
That should be the case, but they were looking for a shot from the point. The defense was changing on the fly, so they controlled the outside. But what I liked was they were able to keep possession during a defensive change (instead of one pinching to help). Hopefully with more time they will be able to get that centering pass and a better shot from the point.
It’s an improvement, a big one.

If it is true
that there are as many Ranger fans in the Rock tonight as Devils, I am willing to have a strategize session over the summer to lessen these occurrences. It has nothing to do with ticket buying schemes.

Brandon Prust.
The 4th line. This is ridiculous. There’s no excuse. Dean McAmmond was useless there.
Maybe next time Timeout
Maybe Jacques should call a timeout after the Devils score . . .

Its like both team’s defense are trying to see who can falter the most in front of their goalie.

Because
the Devils and Rangers average about one shootout like this per year. And the Devils never seem to be able to shut the door.

Well, if the D didn’t look so terrible at times, I’d be really happy with this period.
Love that the Devils are looking for goal #6, I think it will be important.
Poor Lundqvist! Three deflections and two third-chance rebounds. This game ain’t his fault, the Rangers look out of sorts in their own end.
Go Devils

This’ll probably be the last comment I make for the night, it’s time for me to enjoy the 3rd period in my master suite (aka…my room). Great game played by the Devils thus far. What has been the most noticeable thing about this team since Edmonton, you might wonder? The hitting. The devils have absolutely layed out some Rangers, on open ice hits, while backchecking in their own zone, while forechecking in the Rangers zone. The aggressiveness and fire in this team has been turned up a couple of notches. And what usually happens when a team is more aggressive than the other? They score goals. There has been a couple of defensive lapses, but overall I have seen a resurgence of energy that I have not seen in this team since early January. Hopefully this continues into the third period.

Now lets....
build off of this big win and get some momentum going. LETS TAKE IT TO CROSBY’s WHINING @$$ and whoop the PENS!
2 great things . . .
Some of the 2 greatest things in 2010 happened today.
1) Devils double up the Rangers.
2) I found a real song which has the Smurfs singing about beer. Thanks to Tim G for forcing me to go to youtube to find a response to his Auld helmet comment. SMURFS SINGING ABOUT BEER. I’m sorry. I really can’t contain myself right now.
Life is good. I’m going to enjoy this evening. Night Devils’ fans.
I have respect for most sports fans with 2 exceptions: NY Ranger fans who grew up in New Jersey, and Dallas Cowboy fans who can't name the capital of Texas.
Game over Devils win.....
Great game for the Devils they were driving the net. The defense was shooting the puck and traffic in front of Lundqvist cause havoc… It also seemed like they got more back to their game and did not depend on Kovy to carry them. I am ready for Pittsburgh. Go Devils…
Donald Vasquez
Devils win
It’s good to see them bounce back here against the Rag! It was a good game! I was bracing my self for an overtime or shootout. The Devils & Marty prevail at home. I was happy to see them keep taking the lead and then holding rags off for solid 3 period. party on fans!
RECAP IS UP
