So, I get e-mails. Quite a few e-mails, actually. Some proclaim I can enlarge my (non-existent) male genitalia, others promise low price Xanax from Canada shipped right to my door. Same old, same old, right? I get other e-mails too, though. Some of these e-mails, actually, really make me happy. Happy enough I don’t need [...]

7:25 PM ET: Whew! The Devils hold off a late onslaught by the Leafs and win the game 3-2. Not the greatest win, but i’ll take it. Great game for Madden with a pair of goals in his return. That’s all for me tonight, keep it tuned to 2ma for rants, commentary and more live-cappery [...]

The Devils signed Erik Rasmussen today. New Jersey, I apologize for having to break such terrible news. But hey, on the bright side, he was immediately assigned to Lowell. You know, the Baby Devils couldn’t get much worse anyway, so it may entirely be a moot point. Massachusetts, I also apologize to you. I guess [...]

Apparently, it’s impossible for Black ‘n Red to beat the New York Islanders. This is quite disappointing, and frankly, it really disturbs me. I call conspiracy. Or shenanigans. It’s gotta be something. You know?

So here we are again. Tonight we’re staring at another showdown with our cross-river rivals, the New York Islanders, who have inexplicably joined the Rangers in dominating our boys for the first half of the season. In fact, the Rangers and Islanders have combined to hand the Devils a whopping 44 percent of their losses [...]

All that packing and unpacking in the early stages of the season is finally paying off for the New Jersey Devils. Of their next eighteen scheduled games, fifteen of those will be played at home.
