monday rest

[nj_cup]

Don't understand pdb is giving them the day off. They shouldnt even be tired! They played 2 periods so far and were just in Florida! Wtf get this team on the ice and work them already!

So no practice today and tomorrow the devils will have an optional game tomorrow at 7. Chances are not many will show

I don't mind it if they are watching video and really working on the mental aspect of it. Because let's face it, mental errors and the wrong mindset cost us that game.

Nows not the time to be player friendly Deboer.... let them know that falling on your face isn't acceptable.

This team needs freaking energy... hope the Rock can provide it.

A boot camp style practice would be a sign that the panic button has been hit. I don't think we're anywhere near that point and I think that would be the wrong message to send to the players.

Lose tomorrow night and its beyond bootcamp. Imo....playoffs don't leave much time for mistakes

Not as extreme as a boot camp, but wake your ass up type practice... If they took it seriously for 3 periods, then they wouldn't have to. But they(players) went in easy and should be push hard in practice to break that habit...

Lots of other teams aren't taking it off... its Playoffs time!

In my opinion, these guys are pros and have plenty of veterans on the team. If you can't get things going without having to have a crazy ass practice, you don't belong here.

 

[CalamityX11]

we are the "oldest" team in the nhl..... Damn Marty!!!

 

[MCDevils]

We'll see how they respond to it.

 

[MCDevils]

I think it's safe to say that regardless of the outcome that they'll be having a special teams-centric practice tomorrow.

Maybe PD should give them a day off again tomorrow.

 

[CalamityX11]

They shouldn't bother.

i read on tg blog earlier that elias spent his "off" day at the central park zoo? i know its a nice story and all but damn this is fucking playoff hockey....you seriously cant be giving guys days off like that

 

[TiLoBrown]

I think his off day helped, since you know he scored.....

 

[CalamityX11]

Is Wednesday off too?

 

[nj_cup]

Your right tilo he actually scored two goals. You know the horrible pass to no one on the 3rs goal.

 

[TiLoBrown]

Yea, thanks for mentioning that he did indeed in fact score....now if we want to talk about each other's favorite players mistakes, I remember Kovy making a similar pass on a PP in the 2nd(?) but I didn't bring that up because I wasn't trying to start trouble.......

 

[nj_cup]

did it result in a goal?

 

[rp2five]

At least they held practice today.
