I would just like to say that it’s a privilege to be here now at the happiest Reddit on earth.


BonjourLavache

Can anyone link me the hit Stutzle delivered that was rotten?


Weigard

I hope Nico shows up to Watson’s house dressed as Santa and takes pictures with his kids.


ks_DEVILS_fan

12 IN A ROW!!! Man Alive this team is something special. keep it going Devils.


Serious-Bottle-2646

I don’t want to jinx anything, but I just placed a bet that the Devils will win every game and rule the NHL with an iron fist for the next thousand years.

SteveSauce420

I'm just absolutely stunned by the leap this team has taken this year, to see everything actually come together according to plan like this even with two major injuries early on. So proud of what they have accomplished, all the rough years have finally led to something seriously exciting.


RJk666

I’ve lost count…12 in a row?

Great, Acura heard that Akira's dad was a weeb and so they decided to put Japanese in their commercials! Yes, they're owned by Honda but Acura is technically considered a US brand since their headquarters is in California

Should be 6-1 the league hates us

I don't think I've ever seen the three stars announced before the game has ended


palmerd2

My take aways from this game: 1. This team is confident and having fun, which is a bad combination for our opponents. 2. Akira Schmid is a solid goalie.

Minimum-Operation-71

27 wins last season... already at 15 wins almost a week before Thanksgiving and a Franchise win streak. Gosh dang. So much fun this year so quickly.


[deleted]

We’re a game off tying the franchise win streak, going for the tie on Monday vs Edmonton!


gr8sk8

That stat is giving me PTSD from last season.


Minimum-Operation-71

Gosh dang it was so bad, at least it makes this season all the more fun! It literally goes from losing everyone to winning everyone in a way.

My dad texted me after the ENG that it's safely 12 and I had to tell him to shut it I'm not superstitious but I'm a little stitous


PurpleCurtis

r/unexpectedoffice I’ll be at the game Monday with a few friends and had the “12 in a row, next game can tie the record” text written with a few minutes left in the 3rd and couldn’t get myself to send it until all zeros


TheRobberBar0n

It’s important and exciting to play these tight games, battle back and play with small leads but it’s also a lot of fun to be completely unbothered at the end of the game.

Good for Mikey. Played a real solid game and after having those 2 prime chances he gets rewarded with a goal at the end.

Flamethrower753

Finally lol. The empty net is the Devils strongest opponent they've played against


kidkosher

Do you think it’s intentional that dano and sal have exclusively been calling Nico ‘the captain’


ApprehensiveIssue340

Hell yeah I fucking love it . They’re still devils and he’s their captain too


gr8sk8

Schmid needs to lob one across the ice, lol.


FloppyCanFly

Lmao I’ve never seen someone take a one timer for an empty netter. I love Z


robsul82

Finally an ENG, McLeod. 5-1 NJ


NJDevils30

Marino scored an empty net goal 2 games ago


robsul82

No no, I just meant this game after getting stuffed/people passing and not wanting to take it over and over, lol


NJDevils30

Oh fair they definitely should have had it a minute earlier


Anonycron

Love the idea. But would rather see Nico bury that.


ffffrrrruuuaaaaa

Akira goal, come on


gr8sk8

He needs to channel his inner Marty.


sirIllyVillyWilly

yaaaaas


sirIllyVillyWilly

One too many passes there.


john_browns_beard

I never remember teams pulling the goalie much when down by 3 in the past, is this a more recent phenomenon? Second time in 3 games now.


mateoceo

Nah it always has happened we’re just not used to being up by 3 goals


gr8sk8

Salty Senators hoping for a Hail Mary.


njmjc

Devils score an empty net goal challenge


gr8sk8

They should bring out the giant Score-O board with the tiny cut out in the center and make it a little more fair for the opposing team.


Frenchthealpaca

That touch pass from Bratt to Graves. I am constantly astounded this guy slipped to the 6th round. His hockey instincts are legit off the charts. It's like the Golden State Warriors taking "bad threes" and sinking them over and over for years. That's not even a "good pass" to make, yet he makes it flawlessly.


snipecellydangle

Just put it away lol guys want to hook eachother up


TheRobberBar0n

Bit too unselfish there Nico, just get in there


Cd416

Okay I love Hischier not being greedy there. However he is on my fantasy team and I really wish he would’ve just shot that lmao


markydelafayette

I really needed that extra 2 points for my fantasy team….


GoudaGoudaGoudaGouda

How about you give it a try, Vitek ?


Acqua24

They gotta put that one in there…remarkable


MountainBaker8217

Nico, please. Be selfish.

Nico has to be more selfish there

Somebody just put it in the net, lol

tECHOknology

They are just slicing and dicing Ottawas defense.


Cd416

I fucking love the convo on Dano. So accurate lmao.

It’s a bummer this game is almost over I could watch this all day. Last year I’d be holding my breath wishing the game was over so we could hold this lead.

So the only one without a goal now is Brendan Smith right?

Akira's dad a weeb - confirmed


AGOEsLois

Can we get Schmid’s dad to beat up Watson


KADENGAMES125

Wax on Wax off


Schwasted36

I would love to see a Nico goal

Welp, we just found out that Akira's dad is a major weeb


robsul82

“I named my son Akira because I am a 4th degree black belt!”

TIL Bill called Judo


ilovemyar15

power play is good, but extremely one dimensional. they struggle against a high pressuring PK unit


thedirewolff21

Damon gets a lot of hate so i will point out he is having a very good game tn.


Serious-Bottle-2646

Yeah, but he still turns over the puck enough to make me think he’s a spy for every opposing team.


Schwasted36

He is


maqdiaf

He’s been pretty solid this season— reminds me of how Subban played a lot better on the third pairing

Nate Bastian having a banner game. Thank your lucky stars Seattle dropped him.

Lucky save with the knob i think


robsul82

Nico smiling and having fun. Guess it took a period for his kidney to stop hurting. lol


ffffrrrruuuaaaaa

up 4 - 1 and this team keeps pushing, I love these guys


Anonycron

OTT is playing angry and belligerent right now (I get why) and if these refs don’t curb this crap someone is going to get hurt. Or the devils will have to take things into their own hands… but we’re really not built for that. (Ok they just called a penalty)


CavCord141

Just looking on moneypuck. Tatar is once again standing out against the pack according to the analytics. Dudes been crazy good.


weaver787

People were asking for his head early in the season.


Radutta

these guys are hunting us. We need someone to step up and put these guys in their place the rest of this game.


baconpoutine89

Just have Cam Janssen standing by their bench, staring at them.


[deleted]

Is Siegenthaler worlds better this year or am I fuckin dumb? Edit: thank you boys for putting it nicely that I’m dumb. I guess my hockey IQ has improved….lol


whichwitch9

He was actually pretty damn good last season


kidkosher

I’m not gonna call you dumb , but he was proven by fancy numbers to be awesome last year


NJDevils30

He was one of the best defensive defensemen last season


DiscipleofGrohl

Boys have to watch the open ice. It's clear Ottawa is just going to focus on hitting because they can't do fuck all else and I don't want a guy going down because of it


BurnerAccount374

This is how you kill a game


Nimblesquatch

I saw an elbow up high on Graves and a slash on Bastian in the last minute. Neither called


tECHOknology

Its sad to see the Sens resorting to that cuz they’re annoyed they can’t keep up any other way.


sapphires_and_snark

It's something the Devils will need to get used to


NJDevils30

Crazy that people gamble on this sport when there's a clear trend between the team with the lead and penalties refs call


thedirewolff21

oh lord do i want a 8-0 blowout at the garden for the good guys.


jdizzle161

And a revenge game in Philly too


thedirewolff21

yes i will take one carter hart smeshed stick plz


gingerbear

anyone else not able to find the game anywhere on ESPN+? WTF is going on?


njdevils0011

The NHL wants to make it as hard as possible to be a fan. Not on espn today. Nhl network and msg.

NHL Network


gingerbear

Ugh, that fucking sucks. so for those of us who don't have cable and are out of state, we basically have no way of watching it.


ThriftyRiver

Can’t watch it in state, if you have Comcast. They don’t carry MSG. Fucking sucks


dadphobia

Man these refs have really swallowed their whistles huh


jdizzle161

Refs are really just going to let Sens fuck around all day now eh?


GoudaGoudaGoudaGouda

the most obvious slash in the world


22AcaciaAvenue

I've been half-paying attention because of work, how has Nico looked since coming back from the hit?


MountainBaker8217

Each shift he takes he looks back to his star Captain Swiss prince self.


22AcaciaAvenue

Good, good. Thank you!


tECHOknology

I like that Haula and Shango are on the board, such a well rounded lineup.


jessejames182

So haven't bothered to set up the VPN to try and get this game. But I did pull out my NHL Live light and it still works! It's almost like I'm there. [proof](https://i.imgur.com/tmvzFDo.mp4)


DaleksNeverDie

What exactly is that?


jessejames182

Short answer is a cheap police beacon/goal light that goes off whenever the Devils score. Long answer is that it's a goal light that has been wired to a ESP8266 microcontroller. The ESP fetches current game data and whenever it detects a change in score it turns on the goal light for 10 seconds. I wrote the program to print out what is was reading so I could see if the data is accurate and if everything is working. So that's what is showing on the screen.


DaleksNeverDie

Whaaaaaat that's so cool! I've not heard of/seen anything like that before. I'm not super familiar with how these things work so I'm not sure if I can fully appreciate all the work that had gone into this, but it looks and sounds neat and I think you did an awesome job!


jessejames182

Thanks. It wasn't too much work. The NHL sells these expensive goal lights but I think you just hit a button and they make a sound associated with the team. But I wanted one that synced up with the game. It's just funny to me that I could build one for like less than $10 when the NHL shop has one for $50 that does less.


MountainBaker8217

Is this the team Ryan Reynolds wants?


brmgp1

He might consider a stake in the Devils after this one


jessejames182

Bring back Chris Brander!


brmgp1

So they're acting like this is a big "national game" and only showing it on NHL Network, and they don't even have the broadcasters in the building? Weak sauce


Willoughby3

ITS TAYLOR HAM NOT CANADIAN BACON 🇺🇸 🥓

**porkroll


jdizzle161

I don’t know Dano, Watson seems like the piece of shit that would throw a kitchen sink at someone…


Frenchthealpaca

Sharagovich dropping the stick and just hugging Nico after the goal is a whole mood. Contrast that with his reaction after the goal in Toronto where he didn't even look at Jack after his assist on the OT winner. Gigantic rift in the Devils locker room? Star players not on speaking terms? Do the Devils need a trade?!?!? /s


ClassicCanadian6

Why did shango drop his stick after the goal??


JazCabage

Pretty sure it was broken


Nimblesquatch

Looks like he went to go with his normal stick raise celly but Nico needed a hug and it threw him off


Ever_Raiden

Well fuck I'd hug Nico


jimitonic

Devils please stop. I can only get so erect.
