You gotta give it to Zubbie. He doesn’t score much, but when he does, he makes ‘em count. Game winner tonight with under two minutes to play. Oh, so you want to make a ZubbieCounterContest picture for this, Zubbie’s 3oth Goal As A Devil? Okay, knock yourselves out. Send ‘em in to zubbiecounter@gmail.com by, oh, [...]

Well you kinda had this feeling it was gonna be UGLY without Paul Martin in the lineup (am I going to trivialize the loss of Pandolfo? Probably… and he’s nowhere NEAR as important to this team…. I’d say on Elias, Zajac and Parise mean more to this team then Paul Martin… but Scott… you mean [...]

So who’d have thought that this stretch of games against the Rangers, Penguins, and Sabres would prove to be an early-season measuring stick? I mean, Penguins, of course. Rangers & Penguins? Okay, maybe. But where the HELL did the Sabres come from? The Sabres sit at 6-1-1 coming into tonight’s game at The Rock. This [...]

Tastes good, don’t it? That’s a win, kiddies. That’s a WIN. Walk into the building of the defending Stanley Cup champions and deliver a good old crotch-stomping to the tune of a 4-1 victory. Beautiful. (Side note: Does anyone else get the feeling that Marty would be pushing 200 shutouts if Chico wasn’t one of [...]

Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to the first annual ZUBBIE AWARDS! Recall if you will, last season (I know it’s hard, pretend late April didn’t happen, that’s what I do). Go all the way back to the second weekend of December. It was a glorious time to be a Devils fan. The Devils were in the [...]

I think I like the ’09-’10 edition of the ZubbieCounter. Whaddaya think of it? Also, in celebration of the first ZubbieCounter update of the year, I’m thinking it’s finally time for our Zubbie awards. Look for it later tonight.

Game night. Devils/Rangers. Let’s see if Marty can, y’know, win a game at the Garden for a change. It’s only been TWO AND A HALF YEARS. 2MA will probably be on radio silence this evening (but you expected that, right? We’re the flakiest bunch of flakes who ever flaked in from flaketown). I’ll miss the [...]

I don’t like the schedule very much this year. I mean really – there’s a two-week Olympic break in February, right? So what happened to the condensed schedule? Why did the Devils have a bunch of days off, then two games in a row, and now a bunch more days off? It’s mighty boring. Especially [...]

The Devils put Cory Murphy on waivers today. I’m sure you’re heartbroken. I’d like to take full credit for this move, as it comes the day after I go public on this very weblog with my formerly private belief that ANDY GREENE = WINS, but I think Murphy himself had something to do with it [...]
