ever get that feeling....

[devs30rko]

during streaks where your team is playing poorly that you really only want to see their logo in the next game in hopes they are turning it around?


it doesn't keep you from watching the game.... but you don't want to read about them
don't want to see their site.
don't want to watch a game replay.

you just want it to end?


i'm not used to this

 

[puckhead]

oh yes.

you are waiting for the losses they that play well, before you can reasonably expect the wins to come.
it sucks.

 

[devs30rko]

awful.


just awful.

After four games, I'm thinking the Flames are going 41-41-0 this season. Unfortunately, 82 points won't be enough for the playoffs.

last year, Phoenix got 107 points with 33 regulation wins.
never say never

Friday night for the canucks kings game I found myself saying in the 3rd ... i cant watch this shit any longer ... when I make that declaration i usually avoid the highlights of the game and try and forget about it

onward and upward!!!

82 time's a year.

Last Thursday night watching the Panthers - Flames game, I gave up after the 3rd Panthers goal early in the 3rd period. It was more a factor of boredom than anything else, I'll stick with most games if they're entertaining, but it was just terrible hockey.

Amen . . .

Actually, I amend that. However many playoff games deep is the real issue for me.

The devils flyers series last year was plain depressing

 

[devs30rko]

the beginning to this season is plain depressing lol

I know the feeling well...lol

I'm used to it now. You get to a point where you just know they're going to find a way to lose and you expect it. That way you don't get quite as upset when they do lose.

 

[Squatchito]

It is probably stating the obvious, but I wouldn't worry too much. New coach, new system in place in serious competition for the first time, and Marty looking very, very mortal right now. Sure, it is painful to watch now, but when they hit their stride they are going to be very, very scary.

 

[devs30rko]

i keep trying to remind myself that lol


the one thing i keep in mind is.... 5 rookies, 5new players... literally half the team was not in a devil uni last year.

 

[Squatchito]

Futhermore you've got Kovy adjusting to a new side. Presuming he is still playing to the right of Zajac, admittedly I don't see a ton of Devils games. When he adjusts and they develop some chemistry, as much as I adore Ovie and Backs, that will be the most formidable front 3 in hockey. Not to draw comparisons to the Caps, seeing as the Devils have one of the best shut down D-men in hockey and the greatest(or one of depending on your opinion) goalie of all time between the pipes.

 

[devs30rko]

at todays practice kovy was on a line with elias and josefson

i don't know who was on the left side or right, the only thing i can tell you for sure is josefson is the center..

in all honesty this line seems like a better line for kovy. elias is more flow oriented and good defensivey, and josefson, while he's only played 2 game is very similair to elias and has been spectacular in his first 2 in my opinion. not to mention he looks faster than elias too so you comine that with kovy this could be a good line. all 3 are very creative players, where as zach and trav are great but they make their lving in front of the net and along to boards, the don't really fit with kovy in my opinion

The Devils are in the same boat as the Sabres, but the Devils are more likely to get to the rescue boats, while the Sabres drown a miserable death.

 

[devs30rko]

pointy objects don't help boats

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Are you kidding? I'm an Islanders fan.

Sorry but I have no sympathy for teams that make the playoffs every year & are expected to go deep once they get their.

 

[sTyLnK]

I never watch replays and stuff if my team loses. Why? Because they lost. I don't want to see highlights of a bunch of losers.
