So, the Devils got their butts handed to them by Tampa Bay today. So sad.
I can’t say I appreciate the horrid display of “hockey” the Devils put forth today, but hey, it happens. I know, I really should be signaling the end of the world right now with a *gasp* Devils loss, but I just can’t get too upset. Can’t win ‘em all.
Let’s face it — the Devils fell apart when John Madden’s face fell apart. Damn, does that boy really put his face on the line though. I swear, I thought I was watching a replay of the ’03 Finals when Madden came back out with the visor and the mangled mess of a face. Poor man. Poor, poor, bloody-mangled man. He really is a Mad Dog, eh?
On the other side of the chain linked fence (with appropriate Beware of Mad Dog sign, of course), we have Colin White, stinking up the joint for, well, not the first time with his obligatory dumb penalty of the game. And to boot, he added a few dumb plays as well. Come on Colin. Seriously. Come on.
Alas, I’m hoping we don’t see longterm problems with Johnny Mad Dog, as, well, that WOULD really suck. With the trade deadline approaching, an injured John Madden likely won’t signal a trade (hey, we do have Jim Dowd, a poor man’s Madden), and we really don’t have the money anyway. I’m gonna throw a bone out there and predict the Devils acquiring Forsberg, but who doesn’t see THAT one coming? Yeah yeah, I know, Larry Brooks I am not…

Madden is the face of the team…no pun intended….he just has that grit that we could never replace. There is no amount of money you could trade for that….period! Great blog and damn I hope we beat the Pens tomorrow.
