Everything old is new again

First off, let me start by saying, I’m back in a limited capacity right now.  The Dish family has expanded the franchise and this little bundle of joy will not survive without my participation.  On most days, this website will.  That being said, after the jump, my assessment of the Devils offseason.   Continue Reading »

Just take the damn trophy!

Above, is Scott Stevens with the Prince of Wales Trophy in 2003.  For those wondering, Ducks captain Paul Kariya chose not to touch the Campbell Bowl.  How’d that turn out?  Some quick thoughts after the jump.

Since I posted the Volek goal on the anniversary of it for Volek and Hale, do I have to wait until June 19 to post this for Buffaslug?

 

Or til June 10th for me to post this for, well, me?

Eastern Conference Quarterfinal Preview (4) New Jersey Devils vs. (5) New York Rangers

Isn’t it a conflict of interest that I, a Devils fan, would break down the Devils/Rangers series?  Sure, of course it is.  But I’m doing it anyway.  After the jump, the matchup between the four and five seeds in the East.

Why Marty is MVP

The Man has had countless incredible seasons.  He’s been the league’s best goaltender since what seems like the day he entered the league.  The Conn Smythe Trophy has eluded him because many in the hockey-knowledge-lacking media believe him to be a system goalie.  Yet if there was ever a year to remove the “system goalie” from Marty, this is it.  And in this year, he’s the MVP.  I’m not saying he’ll win it, but after the jump, my argument for Marty as MVP.

Now it’s time…

…to push the panic button in NJ.  The Devils, while mathematically still in the race for the Wales Conference and Patrick Division titles are going to finish no better than fourth after losing to Pittsburgh at home tonight.  The Pens have two more wins than NJ and won the season series tonight4-3-1.  The Devils will not recover from this.  The rest of the NJ scenario after the jump.

It’s time

I’ll keep this short and sweet.  Tonight is a MUST WIN for the Devils against Pittsburgh.  Sure, if they lose it’s a four point lead with six to play.  But a loss would mean that the Devils would most likely need to go 5-1 in their last six.  Taking this a step further, the Devils really need to win tonight and Thursday against the Rangers.  That would put them two up on Pittsburgh with both teams having five games left.  It would also have them one point behind the Canadiens with both having five to play.   It also would help in creating some separation between the Devils, Senators, and Rangers.   And don’t think the Rangers don’t know that a Devils loss tonight means they could win and pull to within one point of New Jersey on Thursday.  So it’s win the next two or face the possibility of finishing fifth or sixth.  Should be a great one after that 7-1 drubbing the Devils took this weekend.
