The New Jersey Devils fell to the Detroit Red Wings by a score of 5-3 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit Michigan on 10/25/24.
Another painful loss for the NJ Devils.
– The New Jersey Devils are now on a 3 game losing streak.
– Luke Hughes and Brett Pesce made their season debuts for the Devils.
– Captain Nico Hischier continued his strong play scoring 2 goals.
– Brenden Dillon dropped the mitts with Christian Fischer. The refs screwed us again and gave Dillon a bogus roughing penalty on top of the fighting major. The Red Wings scored on the ensuing Power Play.
– Johnathan Kovacevic received a 5 minute major for fighting; while his gloves were still on and he didn’t throw a punch!
– Jack Hughes had an altercation with Michael Rasmussen at the end of the game and the Devils team response was nonexistent.
– Time to see Kurtis MacDermid?
– Some Devils fans have been pushed completely over the edge by this losing streak.
– The Devils need a BIG win tonight against the NY Islanders!
I discuss all of this and more in this video.

Markstrom 44th out of 49 goalies in goals above expected. Horseshit. -3.8 on the season.
Ace, I'm just venting here, but it's not that we just lose… we lose by giving up AT LEAST 4-5 goals per game. Where is the defense? Where is the almighty Markstrom?
This was a great game yeah bad turnovers and not ideal goaltending if they keep this intensity up they shall succeed. They DOMINATED this game gotta keep the legs moving LGD
Markstrom can’t make a big save when we need it. He’s constantly out of position and has trouble controlling rebounds. I have very little confidence that when the team needs to be bailed out that he will come through.
One singular positive, this may be the best Nico Hischier has ever played in his career. Bounce back tonight, get it together and build off of it. I also do enjoy seeing a coach behind the bench getting pissed off. I am not even a little bit worried, a lot of conference/division opponents also lost tonight. Just gotta learn from these games. Also need to learn how to play for a point. It was a tie game and we were pushing way too much. A win is obviously the goal, but every point matters and last season this was an issue. Tie game with 5 minutes left, we need to try to get at least 1 point. Play defensive hockey. Every point matters.
In retrospect the devils played with their 7th and 8th defenders and still managed to put up a decent showing. Trust me as a leafs diehard if we were to start like that it would be a disaster. The depth is showing it’s too early to be concerned. They have to clean up the D for sure but I think guys like Dillion and Peace once they really get comfortable won’t let them fall too far down. Guys just need to click a little more and then it’ll be fine. SCARY SCARY TEAN JUST A BAD WEEK
Definitely starting to wonder if Calgary’s hot start this year vs garbage season last year has anything to do with JM… not saying he’s not good anymore, he has had some good games for us.
I think reality is that this team needs time to gel & then be reevaluated come mid season. If Jack was producing like Nico is, it would only be covering up the real problems this team has.
That said, it’s early, but 10 games isn’t nothing. The next 10 games will tell us what this team will likely be this year: a playoff fringe team or a competitor.
Devil's played well.
We play like this every game and we will win more then we lose.
It was a hot goalie.
It is a bad patch in our season.
But, we are working hard and the sky is not falling.
We were never going 82-0.
Fire the goalie coach Rogalski already. Get a new coach with a new pair of eyes to look at things.
"For Rasmussen to THROW Jack down like that" Holy shit, tell me you're not a homer without telling me! Watch it again, man. He was scoring a goal and Hughes tried to hit him. He just stood there and Hughes bounced off him. What a soft take.
keefe is too soft…he needs to get angry…get in their faces and start telling these guys to 'f' off…by the way luke hughes was making alot of those passes last year as well…hamilton not stepping to help dillion was pathetic…what a loser…
Like I said in the Live, Nico has been on fire and it's outright beyond admirable his performance even during these soul crushing games. The rest of the team seriously needs to show him some respect and make things happen cause this guy couldn't be further leading by example. He's brilliant on the ice.
I'm still high on Markstrom/Allen, I love goalies but Markstrom really needs to shape things up sooner than later cause these blunders make me concerned for our eventual playoff run. Like you said the Devils are reasonably going to make it but I don't want the boys to get taken out in like a 4-1 series or something if/when Marky decides to crumple.
I still believe ace!!! We'll turn things around. Just gotta make the playoffs and be firing on all 8 cylinders at that time!
If we had a Brady Tkachuk in our core, we don’t get tossed around as easily
Seems like the Devils make other goalies look great while our goalies continue to look underwhelming.
Markstrom needs to be better
The style the devils
Are playing is exactly the past leafs teams. How many cups does Austin Matthews have?
Can't wait for the excuses after they lose tonight Allen will lose again they suck at home 💯🤷
no way you're blaming the refs for this one. bad calls on both sides cancel out. devils went 3/5 redwings went 2/4.
I get the defense has been dogshit, but at some point Markstrom has to step up. Still a young season, but it feels like were getting closer to that "future is bright" presser from Fitz
Seems like an old record "Should have, Would have". It is obvious you can't fire the team. The owner of the team has to do something from the coaches up to the next guy under him. These guys are taking his money and the fans money. The is a business and he is not getting results. Sorry' but the truth hearts.
I can’t believe Askarov was still available at some point in offseason . Fitz should have thrown all resources to get him . We should have picked him in the first place but wasting the second chance was purely dumb .
This team need John Tortorella for a couple years to turn this team into men. And the. Let Sheldon take over the men team to win
Send Luke to the minors and bring Casey back up…heck put Markstrom down there as well, and Bring Jeremey up….Markstrom has been piss poor. Fire Fitz. Fire Keefe. These pussies we call a hockey team need to drop the gloves!
we got 5 W’s in 10 games . the doomsdayers are morons . the chest beaters aremorons . this team is neither terrible or a wagon
I think one main core issue with this team is inconsistency. Why is it? It’s because when we play against a hitting team we lose. We play against a small fast team we win. There is no dog in this core jack should have 100% fought that guy who hit him. Teams know nothing will happen if you slam the devils into the boards and the devils get hit hard during games and there is no response they get crushed for free. And that puts the fear into there breakout into there zone cause there scared there gonna get hit cause the team is to soft we need to man this team up and everyone needs to be a dog on the ice or this team isn’t going anywhere. Yeah maybe we make playoffs but we’re gonna get dominated in the playoffs if we don’t change. This is the straight core issue with the team if anyone doesn’t see it aswell your living in a dream and need to wake up. fits needs to turn the core into dogs or devils will just be pushovers untill we get a new core
Devils need an Oakley who protected Jordan and need somebody to protect Jack Huges. Cant have Timo get decked and never recovered.
I left the live because too much negativity. Props to Jack for making an attempt and showing some passion. I’m sorry he got upended, but I have even more respect for him as a player now, for not sitting back at that moment. I appreciate you keeping the optimism man, especially when so many are not. Like I’ve said before not interested in arguing with strangers, but those of us who still believe in this team are out here.
