I will not beat around the bush, frustration has been the name of the game this summer for me when it comes to the Devils. I expected Lou to name a head coach long before the Free Agency Open Market got here and every day that he continues to delay with this, the more frustrated [...]

comment14 Comments

Brad Lukowich is the latest Devil to leave New Jersey. 2MA’s favorite player has bolted (get it?) back to the Tampa Bay Lightning, signing a three-year contract. I, for one am very disappointed.
