CORRENTE RETURNED TO JUNIOR
2006 first-round-pick Matthew Corrente was returned to his junior team, the Mississauga Ice Dogs of the OHL. While the lad did have an impressive camp, he was ineligible to play for the Baby Devils, so it was Big Boys [...]

Louie Lams today confirmed that Mr. Anger Management will not be skating in Tampa Bay for the Devils’ season opener against the Bolts next Thursday.
Well, at least the penalty sheet should be a little lighter. Tee-hee.
White was injured after taking a puck just above his eye during a routine practice on September 19th. The incident [...]


Pre-season stuff.

Y’know, so as not to confuse with regular season stuff.
There’s a rumor that the Devils played a pre-season game last night, a 6-1 whomping of the Islanders in Lowell, Mass.
I would have livecapped it, except I guess we weren’t to know the game existed, as it was not broadcast on TV nor the interwebs.
BUT, we [...]

9:31 PM ET: That’s game. Devils take the contest, 3-1.
Overall good game. Flyers played like they were out to prove something, Devils were just trying to, well, hang in there. Solid games from Bergfors, Martin, Doyle, Pelley, Pandolfo, and Brodeur. Clarkson looked pretty good too. Need to get more physical though. I’m talking to you, [...]


Johnny O What?

While perusing the Devils website roster this evening, trying desperately to figure out how to correctly spell Vitaly Vishnevski (Y in the first name, I in the last), I noticed something odd.
Johnny Oduya is no longer in the Devils lineup.
Instead, Mr. Oduya has been replaced by the less loveable sounding John…Oduya.
Naturally, this is terribly disappointing [...]


Update on Weekes’ condition

Breathe a sigh of relief, Devils fans: it sounds like Kevin Weekes shall be a-okay.
Though Weekes was not available for comment after the game, head coach Brent Sutter downplayed the situation, assuring that the 32-year-old netminder “would be fine.”
Weekes was injured just six minutes into tonight’s preseason contest with the New York Rangers, nearly being [...]

9:35 PM ET: Game over, Devils lose 4-3. Not a big deal, so long as Weekes is okay. Early reports out of NY seem to indicate he should be a-okay though.
JOSH SAYS: Meh. Preseason. We didn’t look that bad once the first period ended.

9:24 PM ET: Holler. Gionta makes Valiquette look like swiss cheese, [...]
