if they keep Ruff after tonight, its clear they’re punting on the season. If they choose to do that, fine, I’ll keep my expectations measured. But if you punt on the season and we don’t have a shiny new goalie and coach come September, you fire Fitz.
The Stein tweet about a hard practice tomorrow is going to send me into a laughing fit.
I’d be satisfied if over the next decade the Devils just made the playoffs and kept Trouba from ever touching a Stanley Cup.
Hopefully someone else will fulfill the agenda this year.
Just saying, the people you call “Lindy defenders” aren’t saying they think Lindy is the answer and the right coach for this team, just that realistically the guy isn’t getting fired this season and there’s no point in harping on it every single game. There’s a difference.
Just fire Lindy. Its over.
fire lindy ruff or fire tom fitzgerald if he doesn’t
I think Fitz respects Lindy and his career too much to get rid of him midseason as it’s probably the end of his career. I don’t think he wants to send him out like that. Even if it is deserved.
The post game thread is about the time when the devils show up to play. I’m here for it
So Lindy breaking down the high danger/low danger shots sounds like he needs to do a better job of coaching that instead of shrugging his shoulders like “welp, they made the decisions they made”
Don’t worry we only have to 17-9-0 now
Season ender.
I know it’ll never come, but I hereby officially submit to be apologized to. You can all come back out of your hideyholes and admit that the noble gentlemen bullshit dream is nothing more than that. What’s that? You’re going to keep blaming the coach, and not *extremely visible* timidity from a roster not in any way protected out there? Convenient, cause I don’t need to read it then.

That was absolutely embarrassing. It sucked being a devils fan in prudential tonight. Players and staff should be ashamed of that. Something has to change you can’t just sweep that one under
Going undefeated in the pre season cursed us
I’m bringing my daughter to her first nhl/devils game Sunday….
If they play like this, I’m going to stop at the NHL shop on the way back home let her pick out a jersey and that will be the team I root for, for the rest of the season.
My heart can only take so much
Would be nice to be able to score 3 goals in a game
Really thought the Nashville game was a sign of things to come. They didn’t get frustrated, but instead kept the foot on the gas and broke through. These last 2 games, not so much. Although to be fair, Igor looks like he’s back at the top of his game.
Still not giving up hope yet. Let’s see where they’re at after games they should win (MON, SJ, ANA, along with a Tampa team that is reeling).
That sorry, Lindy shit was so embarrassing. It was at the time and now more so.
A complete and utter disgrace. We need goal tending. We need coaching. And we need some balls.
Anyone else think the org has lost the locker room? I think there’s more going on here than it seems
I knew that rookie was going to immediately be a shithead
PP is so bad that i’m not even mad anymore. I’m impressed.
Guys it’s not Lindy, once we get Vitek out of net things will be better. Trust me guys. It’s not Lindy. This team is definitely not poorly coached.
Ruff loss.
The Hughes brothers need to take some accountability for the power play. They legit play catch for 45 seconds every time. There’s value in driving pucks to the net. Not everything needs to be a sports center top 10 goal. Rip it in traffic and get a rebound or deflection.
Oh and the coaching is even soft as shit. Microphone wasn’t even passed to Novo since he’s the only one to ask actual questions. The entire organization is soft.
I don’t like the way Lindy is always blowing smoke up jacks ass while bashing the other players. Hughes has not played well at all in the second half of this year. The first 10 games of the year he was the best player in the league. Now he’s a shell of that player and needs to be coached back to where he was.
Any Fire Lindy chants tonight?
The fact of the matter is the fans have been loyal to this franchise while ownership has not been loyal to the fans. It’s clear as day they need to eat Lindys contract. But further than that, it’s the lack of respect for the in gsme experience as well. Prudential center has the same exact food as my high school cafeteria. Madison Square Garden legit has lobster rolls, shake shack, Kraft beers on tap, etc. It’s just a disgrace to the fans and a slap in the face. Also, how about having some reporters who aren’t afraid to ask the tough questions, go point out flaws and hold the team accountable. This organization hires a bunch of yes men to mask their ineptitude as an ownership group. Until there are changes in ownership or ownership philosophy, it is my belief the NJ devils are an unserious franchise. Can we get this man a happy meal?!!!! (Adam Sandler voice)
Who knew Damon Severson was the only thing holding this team together.
There needs to be a real shakeup and it doesn’t seem like that’s happening anytime soon. I hate watching Timo Meier play with every passing game. I’d really want a do over on that one. The Hugheses are both playing weak and sloppy. They look like a team that really isn’t playing for each other.
After some thought, the devils should keep their pick this year. Address goaltending in the offseason when you will pay less of a premium. Let the kids get time. And keep that pick for trade capital at the draft or to hopefully get another good piece.
I thought the Caps game was depressing to be at. I’m sorry for any fans that were there live at this game and had to watch what unfolded.
If my dog had as long a leash as Luke, he’d be in California. The amount of mistakes and poor play he gets away with is incredible. A coach with some balls would put him in the press box for a game or two. Hell if his brother wasn’t here, he might be in Utica…
I get he’s young but Luke is an absolute turnover machine, has to be cut out of his game as he grows and matures. For someone who’s such a good skater and at times looks great with the puck on his stick, he’s nervous with it 75% of the time. Can’t carry on like that.
Lindy’s resorted to blaming the media for his team’s poor power play. These are all the signs of a coach on his way out.
Worst coached team in the league loses again? Shocker.
This team is fucking soft it’s embarrassing to watch. Rempe has been in the league for 10 minutes and makes our whole team look like a bunch of little bitches. We may have skill but we don’t have the balls to ever be a real playoff team.
Somebody with a letter on their sweater needs to be willing to fight every time they play the Rangers. Its obvious that they’re preying on this team in its current state knowing no retaliation is coming. Go back and look at Trouba’s smile after hitting Bastian. He knows what he can get away with just like the last several match ups.
If none of them are willing or able to deter teams from abusing ours then they need to learn quick or find someone that is.
I don’t need neanderthal hockey but I don’t need the south park red wings vs kindergardeners either.
Softest team in the league. As someone already mentioned Rempes been in the league for 10 minutes and is beating up on our “vets”. Absolutely embarrassing loss to our rivals. Every facet of this team has gone to shit.
Lindy blames dog shit PP on the fans, he is a clown fitz needs to step up and fire him teammates not sticking up for each other is a culture problem
It’s going to make me sick if they don’t go out and get a goaltender.
If I’m Bastian I’m pissed and letting my teammates know it. Not one person stepped up for him after he got sent to the shadow realm on a dirty hit.
He some how comes back to the game. He shouldn’t have but our organization is incompetent so….
He gets head hunted again where Trouba leaves his feet.
And again. Noone stands up and does anything.
We didn’t respond on the scoreboard. We didn’t respond physically. Instead we literally got laughed off our own ice. Well I guess it’s not really our ice anymore. It’s MSG South every time they come in and they generally beat the brakes off of us while they’re fans flood the place blue. Pathetic.
Fire Lindy and start holding players, including if their names are Hughes, accountable.
That was embarrassing last night. Got absolutely bullied and we show zero spine. Fuck Ruff. Im depressed today
So this is the info I’ve gathered from posting and reading various threads after last night’s embarrassment . Not in any order of significance
1. Another Hughes turnover goal
2. Last night was a ” Ruff loss” lol and true
3. Nate gets blasted and has to fight for himself
4. Charmin be a more appropriate sponsor on jersey than RJ Barnabas
5.another botched line change leads to a 2 on 1 goal
6. The media is putting too much pressure on on the PP
7. We out shoot the other team but get outscored again
8. 5 minute power play yields 5 shots and no goals
9. We have no line chemistry
10. And despite the results or lack there of , we send out the same power play lines over and over
11. And the definition of insanity is ?
12. 5-1 home loss to the rags , seems to be the norm and why didn’t I bet this score and at least make some cash off of it.
