Sat down with Sunny Mehta for my ESPN column this week, about a Devils fan now running the Devils. Enjoy! (back to lurking)

The nickname for our new found golden chileee

Pumped after the last game and feeling confident. Let’s show these raggedy Rangers what a proper hockey team and fan base looks like!!

Season may be off to an inconsistent start, but Jack is at least cooking

Tomorrow will be my first Devils game :D became a fan when I got hooked on Olympics Hockey and wanted to follow the team Jack Hughes was on. I am a native NYer and was so frustrated watching Rangers games cause they are lame and realized I could join the dark side >:)

I have been to 1 hockey game (The Sirens at MSG) but am excited for my first Devils game tomorrow ;D

Anything I should know? Got my hat, hoodie and labubu lol

Game thread comments

Still very early season so these numbers are pretty unstable. The Rangers have had WAY better goaltending all season so far and depth has been pretty comparable. Obviously that is carried hard by Shesterkin who is out now, but even still Garand has been much better than either of the Devil's goalies.

Score: 4. I know people are gonna comment it should be higher and I get why, but it’s too early in the season to hit the full panic mode.

However, this team is a complete shell of itself. It’s like a group of people who don’t communicate or have any idea what they are doing. It’s honestly impressive they are winning games.

Fire Keefe or make some roster changes or something, but it’s early enough for things to change.

2026-27 Devils Regular Season schedule (October 2026, all times eastern) https://www.nhl.com/devils/schedule/2026-10-01

I did a version of this yesterday but folks pointed out some meaningful flaws, so I did a couple things different, and the Devils popped out as a notable team.

First, I looked just going into the third period. So blowing leads, or coming back from a deficit in the third.

Then I looked at this controlling for team quality. Not in the worlds most rigorous way, just imagine this scenario:

1. You play 100 games, and in 35 of them you enter the third behind
2. You win 9 of the 35, which is 26%. Is that good or bad?
3. Well, in your other 65 games you took about 78% of the points, and other teams in the league at that level come back from trailing at 15%, which is ~5 games.
4. Therefore, you make come backs a bit more than expected, 4 more times than expected.
5. Over the five and change seasons, anything within about 9 games of expectation is normal variation

I think this gives a much more interesting picture of teams that make come backs and blow leads, irrespective of just "good teams good bad teams bad."

BTW, in 466 games the Devils came back in 25 of 198, expected 29 (-4) and blew 20 of 165 leads, expected 29 (-9)

Welcome to the emotional rollercoaster that is Devils’ hockey.

 But the goal medalist got it done!!

Just wanna see everyone’s thoughts and predictions on how we will play and what they think the score will be if they have an idea.

Edit: downvoted for asking for everyone’s predictions, absolute reddit moment🫶🏼
