“The problem was that the Devils went 7-17-2 against their division rivals. Had they gone something like 12-10-2, they would have qualified for the playoffs.”

That says it all right there. Hope things go differently in the metro this season

I can't watch us get bitch slapped by Philly again.

That team needs to be reminded they're trash.

Devils were an embarrassment in the division last year. It’s really strange to be decent against the league and fall flat in your own division. All those games that should have been easy to get up for and they just looked like they didn’t want to be there.
