NJ Devils: Sweden West
if you rate it out to an 82 game season henrique has more goals than last year.
You expect anything less? Can't blame Lou for the bad bounces and head-scratching lineup changes. He calls people up, DeBoer doesn't play them...yep, Lou's fault. We don't have the money Parise wants to come back, Lou's fault. We give Zajac a contract the majority of us thinks he deserves, he underperforms its gotta be Lou's fault.
I haven't mentioned every other Devil not named Brodeur underperforming, but it all Lou's fault.
One thing I do find funny is now that Parise is gone he was the messiah and we let him go, but when he was here people complained incessantly about how he underachieved in the playoffs. I'm sure I could pull up all those posts if I did a quick search. If we win the cup people will complain that it took too many games.
Who would you have replaced him with. Keep in mind they had to want to come here 9 times out of 10 and we needed the cap room this year with the cap lowering next. Its not like EA's NHL where they've never heard of NTCs. People actually have to WANT to come here. But hey, you're all fucking A+ GMs, you'd make it work
------ pointed to Zach Parise’s departure to Minnesota via free agency last summer as the biggest difference between this team and the one that went to the Finals. General manager Lou Lamoriello tried adding several depth players, but never brought in anyone capable of filling the void created by Parise’s absence.
“That’s a top 3 forward we never got back. It’s tough,” ----- said. “We felt we played extremely good for a long part (of the season), but at the end it came back and when Kovy went down, it made a big difference in not having another top guy.” That was probably the big difference that you see.”
woah woah woah what devil player had the balls to actually say that? finally something i can say i agree with him on!
that's DEVS30RKO's music!
Okay sorry I had to.
On point the one key w that article is do you buy into us being worse next year than now? Or even two years. We're picking in potential franchise player range and already have a wealth of D prospects.
I gotta say I do not expect to be picking this low next year. We may not win it all, but were not this brand of mediocrity
AMEN, CUP!
This is exactly what I've been saying. What did we expect to happen when we lose a top 3 forward and don't even replace him with a guy who is HALF as good as him?
3 people on the devils you cant criticize 1.marty 2. elias 3. lou
You got that right Cup.....
