…how quickly things can turn around in the Garden State, eh?
Let us celebrate Zach Parise’s career high 30th goal of the season, along with Martin Brodeur’s franchise record 44th win of the season, both achieved tonight in the Devils 3-2 win over the New York Islanders.
Oh, and of course the minor detail of New Jersey’s [...]

Was there really any doubt?
SIDEBAR!
Okay, so I feel bad for the Islanders, I really do. Voted Most Amazing General Manager In The World, Garth Snow constructed a team that he really thought would contend in the playoffs. Alas, Ricky DiPietro can’t get those damn birds to stop circling his head (with his latest blow coming [...]

Yes yes, Mr. Elias will suit up for Tuesday’s game on Long Island. We’ve missed you, Patty. Never leave us again. Never. Ever. Ever.
Ever.

So the streak ends at three! Everyone bow to Mr. Dowd. Jim Dowd rules, but having the flu…well that sucks. So being the reason for the lack of updates around here…my apologies! Patricia is in Pennsylvania enjoying a Hershey Bears game but will be back shortly! I’m carting my infected [...]

Rod Pelley: Ain’t no way Vinnie Lecav’s gonna score on me!
Word of advice, Roddy, keep your mouth shut. I fully expect Vinnie to net his 50th of the season now that Pelley has vowed he will not let the former Bolts cap’n light the lamp on his watch.
Oh boy. It’s going to be a loooong [...]

Tuomas Pihlman has been called up for tonight’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
You know what THIS means: Erik Rasmussen is the latest poor soul to be thrown into the pile of injured Devils.
Suffering an “upper body injury” aka “spleen removal,” Rasmussen was going to accompany the team to Tampa Bay but was instead sent [...]

2 Man Advantage’s Tip of the Day #5: Don’t eff with Colton Orr.
Especially if your name starts with a Todd and ends in a Fedoruk.
Poor guy was down for the count and knocked out cold after getting clocked in the cheek by the Blueshirt Bad-Ass. After being carted off by the Meat Wagon, Fedoruk was [...]

…it sure made me smile after tonight’s latest loss in the skid.
WATCH: Clark, the Canadian Hockey Goalie (link opens in new window)
Quick description: Hockey Goalie Clark, absolutely dreads the offseason, so he decides to pick up a new summertime hobby to fill the void that seemingly lacing up the skates can only do for him. [...]

Well, that game was an atrocity.
I’m getting really sick and tired of watching the offense, or lack thereof, miss chance after chance. I mean really, what is so immoral about focusing on offense for a while? Is it really that unforgiving of a practice to run and gun some offense and maybe get yourselves a [...]

…too bad the refs are nowhere to be found.
Holy potatoes was that a craptastic non-call on that Jay Pandolfo takedown. Boy has rough luck when it comes to these things, remember Detroit in 1999-2000? Yeah, me too. Apparently one would have to decapitate Mr. Pandolfo to actually receive two measly minutes in the box.
EDIT: Goal [...]
