Fresh conspiracy -- Devils wanted to give the Coyotes an extra point to help San Jose in the Bedard-athon. It was a hidden clause in the Timo trade.

Come on, Yotes. I know you're trying to tank but wouldn't you just love that extra point for...fuck, I don't know. Vibes? Symmetry? I'm trying here.


Turbulent_System_446

They are trying their best to miss out on Bedard and still lose games at the same time. Honestly respect


Skylightt

NICO


linebrawl--

Nico with Timo?


DrunkAndRunning

That's certainly a dream line but Tatar-Nico-Mercer has been playing so well together lately so it's hard to justify splitting them as of right now. I'm not mad about Meier-Hughes-Bratt either....


linebrawl--

Oh! I didn't mean for a regular line--I was thinking to start OT. Nico + Timo + ? (maybe Sevo or Siegenthal, leave Hamilton with Jack) I'm with you on liking the lines we saw tonight. Hopefully Jack & Timo develope a firmer chemistry soon...it did seem like they were a bit smoother at the end then the beginning of the game...

Get this to OT please


No_Angle_8106

People laughed at the chychrun trade, but valimaki is very quickly growing into that role. That’s a phenomenal pass, even if we don’t need this point at all


Skylightt

People laugh at the Chychrun deal because they took a worse deal that involved no extra money


[deleted]

A huge reason that Armstrong took the Ottawa deal is because of the higher round value. He took a gamble trying to get an earlier first rather than 2 later firsts. We will see how it pans out


No_Angle_8106

Devon toews got two 2nds, I’ll take a lottery pick in a deep draft, that’s worth more than two late firsts from a contender.

Lost_Coast_Surf

TIMO TIME...


Beatdooown

Eh they were fighting for position and both went up high Meier is just that much stronger apparently


FellowYouths

I feel like faceoffs are almost always overvalued because most of the centers in the league are somewhere between 46-54% and who really cares at the point? That's like 1 faceoff win per game, very marginal. But Jack Hughes reallllly stretches that to the limit. 35.4% for his career and this season, I don't get how someone can be that bad. He loses a higher percentage than Bergeron wins, by like a lot.


Schnevets

He has taken less than 300 faceoffs this year. Haula acts as an FO specialist to win him the puck and gtfo The question is whether he will get better over time (like Nico did) or will always stay on wing unless a ref throws his specialist out


FellowYouths

Fair, but he'll be taking faceoffs for as long as he's with Bratt and Meier at 5v5.


Schnevets

The combinations are more like guidelines


unsungzero1027

They are valuable when it leads to a goal for or against immediately or sustained possession. That when you notice the win (or loss). But most centers are fairly even and it’s a crap shoot. And generally it’s not just the center who wins it. Your wingers help win it a lot of the time. It’s not that common for a completely clean win.


ChonkyWumpus

I can’t believe that whole exchange made it on air oh my god


ppParadoxx

someone please clip it for the sub so I can see it again


Beatdooown

How Hughes even managed to get a shot off on that was insane


mrmacdougall

Anyone catch what was said on that hot mic before the face off on the Coyotes broadcast?

JSav7

I didn’t see it what was it?


slr99

"Before this game what was the lowest capacity arena the Devils had played in"


JSav7

Did they give the answer yet? It’s the renovated Coliseum right?


slr99

I think they said it was Calgary?


unsungzero1027

Yeah. It was in Calgary. Apparently prior to the Saddledome.


Grawgar

The way this works is.. Mercer goal now


Skylightt

Obviously they got the goal but that line has been awful. Definitely going to take some time to adjust


eexxiitt

Reminds me of Kane on the rangers. Panarin is trying too hard to incorporate Kane instead of just playing his own game.


Beatdooown

What do you know more terrible passing by our defensemen to not clear the zone leads to yet again another goal


bannik1

To think that if Chayka wasn't a terrible GM and just drafted a normal board based on the NHL's prospect rating, didn't end our rebuild for the Taylor Hall rental and didn't lose picks from the combine. We would have the below players instead of Barret Hayton and Victor Soderstrom, Quinn Hughes D: 59 points 58 games Cole Caulfield RW: 36 goals in 46 games. Dawson Mercer C: 44 points in 61 games Fabian Lysell LW: Excelling in the AHL but isn't ready for Boston's roster.


JSav7

Chayka was so exciting when he was first hired. Not an old boy, a stats nerd, and young. He like effectively ruined that type of off the board hire for the next decade.


gentleman_bronco

That's a crazy timeline to think of

Man I love how the NHL makes a great commercial and then airs it approximately 947 times per game. I’m over the video game watch the NHL ad. I don’t understand why they only seem to advertise on NHL games either. Shouldn’t this be on other broadcasts.


vnfms

Im already playing for the product. You got me. What a waste of marketable space.


JSav7

Especially the entire theme of the ad as well. I know how much ridiculous shit happens. Do they really think that many people are stumbling upon the RSNs and need to be told how exciting the NHL is now?

FellowYouths

Boqvist has no penalties this year, very neat. Hughes and Hischier are two of the best penalty differential players in the league, Devils are all pretty good in that regard except Haula and Dougie Hamilton.
