Hope Toffoli is tired of moving around and wants to sign a team friendly deal
Good night at the faceoff dot tonight. That makes a big difference. And the 4th line looked solid tonight, especially on the forecheck.
Woot woot
This win felt good. It was an example of a team with more pure talent overcoming a slow start and letting that talent take over and win the game. As a Vanecek skeptic, I have to commend him on an excellent game tonight, with many saves that kept us in the game and kept the door open for us to overwhelm the Canadiens. I love Toffoli’s game and the fact that he looks dangerous on every shift. I am also impressed by Jack’s defensive play of late. With Carolina struggling, we need this kind of team effort to take advantage of the next 4-5 games and build a lead in the division.
Can you even begin to imagine how awful we’d feel every day for the rest of our lives if we didn’t take Hughes and he was a Ranger? Can you even FATHOM the deep dark hole this fanbase would inhabit for the rest of their miserable lives? CAN YOU EVEN START TO CONCEIVE of the absolute grudge that would be held for the rest of eternity, possibly eclipsing all other existing sports grudges in the history of sport???
I just love how Jack is playing defensively. Stealing pucks all over the place and the sick thing is that we’re not even really playing well right now but this guy just makes shit happen. His defense and constantly winning the one on one battles is leading directly to offense.
Kakko played with men tho?
Who has the Vally clip praising him like an idiot it’s time
Don’t let the Hughes and Toffoli night distract from the fact that VV looked GREAT tonight. He made a lot of key saves for them!
Also, I think Holtz is finding his game more and more.
4th line deserves a goal. They look awesome
Haha, yeah
I’m really liking the Toffoli-Highes-Meier line, Meier just needs to find the back of the net. Which isn’t to say he isn’t playing really well and contributing a lot, just the three of them together scoring goals will maximize that lines potential.
Pickles scored against the Rangers
A Mini Slutfest on this fine Tuesday Evening:
* This is exactly the kind of game you wanna see from our boys.
* Yes, some defensive mishaps, some silly penalties, some annoying plays, a pretty bad start, some fumbling in that third period, but overall, a grand fucking game.
* First of all, massive shoutout to Vitek. He had a really strong game.
* Second shout out to that fourth line. I love this iteration of the fourth line. Keep it! Don’t change it.
* Speaking of the lines, these lines are fucking immense. Let’s roll with them for the foreseeable future.
* **JACK MOTHER FUCKING HUGHES IS A JACK MOTHER FUCKING STAR.**
* **2023-2024 Jack Hughes, the world ain’t ready for you.**
* I want to really really point out how spectacular Bratter’s defensive game has been so far this season. Not only on the PK, but generally.
* And also, the thing thats so great about Jack is not only his offensive prowess, but his takeaways and how he lifts the opponent’s stick.
* Since being benched, Timo is truly motherfucking showing up. I can’t wait till he scores a goal.
* Speaking of, Dawson’s points are coming.
* Welcome to New Jersey, Toffee!
* Nico goal! Nico goal! Nico goal!
* Our top six is a fucking beauty, and as soon as that HHM like figures it out, our top nine is going to be…a masterpiece.
Let’s do it again tomorrow night!
Happy with that win. Came out slow and let up that first goal again. Good response though getting it back quick and taking over rather fast. PP is deadly pk looked better tonight and 5v5 goals came in. Toffoli Hughes and Meier look good. Nico (I see you my Nico lovers out there) with a great game and his first goal. Holtz and Mercer looked good and responsible. Bring this momentum into tomorrow’s game against the caps
Jack was great on O and D, VV was great, Toffoli obviously is finishing chances our wingers would have generally blown the past few seasons, Nico gets on the scoresheet, just a great game. And the power play? I’m so excited to see what we might be able to do with even a top 10 power play in the league. Primeau impressed me despite that his numbers might not look that impressive this game.
Hey, I think this Jack Hughes guy shows some potential.. might turn into a key role player one day
Devils win and a lot of Metro teams losing… shaping up to be a good night!
I got all my hopes rewarded tonight
Holtz is getting rewarded for playing better all opening season long.
Toffoli is a sniper
And finally I get to see scoring play from Hughes to Hischier.
I know no one agrees but Hughes went 1 for 10 on faceoffs tonight
Just play Hughes and Hischier together
We do it in the powerplays and we have enough center depth to pull this off
Anyways , another hot take. I’m not sure there’s any reason not to play Luke with Marino. We want the guy to develop and maybe even win the Calder. Stapling him to smith is not a recipe for success
There’s no downside to playing Bahl and Smith on the 3rd. I actually think they’ll ALL complement each other well
WOOOOO
Every other team in the Metro is losing or lost as of right now, this could be a great Tuesday haha
Whatever we doing on power plays keep it going!!!!
Best looking game of the year. Take away the bad penalty in the third and it’s domination.
Toffoli gets his shot off very quickly,
Solid game by Vitek. Game was a lot closer than the final score suggests.
Last couple years it felt like every game, the devil’s were going up against no-name goalies who stood on their head out of nowhere against us. Feels good to see a no-name goalie doing great against us, but we still win it fairly handily
Ok, now let’s get Mercer and Meier going.
Nico could’ve been a Flyer and Jack could’ve been a Ranger. I want each of you to be grateful every damn day, win or lose.
Aside from the usual slow start, nothing to really complain about tonight. Boys got it done and played how they should with this talent!
Really excited that Toffoli seems to be coming into his own. Thought that was such an underrated move
The Timo Meier trade is still aging like milk.
Finally, a complete game. Dominating offense, good defense, solid goaltending. 14 pts in 5 games, ig Jack is better than Gretzky now lol. Everything coming together pretty nicely here.
LETS GO! What a game to remember. Duggie gave me a puck, Akira signed my jersey and chatted with me off and on all game AND I got to throw my hat for Toffoli’s hatty
Powerplay is looking SOOOOOOOOO much better than last year. Glad to see whatever changes we made in the first few games are, as of now, corrected. Last thing left is to improve the starts. This team will be dominate if we can leave first periods 1-0 us or at the least 0-0.
Seeing Hughes and Bratt battle for the Selke so far this year is the cherry on top of all the PP magic and other scoring. If our defense gets 15% better and we get league average or better goaltending we are gonna be unstoppable.
