Guess we have to retire the Weekes Laser thumbnail

Black ‘n Red continued their mad spending spree this morning, signing goaltender Yann Danis to a contract. Terms are unknown at this time.
Danis spent last season on Long Island, posting a 10-17-3 record in 31 games played (29 starts). The 28-year-old Quebec native posted a 2.84 GAA with a .910 save percentage.
Oh, and he also [...]


Maybe? Maybe?

Shifting our butts here for a minute (see: the darn post below this one), we have a brief update on one of the few coveted players actually remaining in the free agent frenzy of ‘09.
Yes, I am talking about none other than Josh’s favorite Finn Saku Koivu. We have word tonight courtesy of David Pagnotta [...]


Why don’t you take a seat?

It sucks to be a Devils fan if you have a fat ass.
…what, too blunt?
I apologize.
Let’s be frank here though. The round buns of many Devils fans far and wide (pun partially intended) are wedged between a Rock and a, well, plastic seat.
What the heck am I saying?
Oh, the seats are too cramped!
Or so says [...]

Today the Devils signed former draft pick Ilkka Pikkarainen.
Exciting, right?
The 28-year-old forward spent the last three seasons in Finland, posting 24 goals and 13 assists for 37 points in 54 games last year. He also racked up 149 penalty minutes.
The 220 pound Pikkarainen should add a physical edge to the Devils roster, ’specially after losing [...]

Johnny sure does.
The Swede re-upped with Black ‘n Red for a multi-year deal worth $3-million a season.
Not bad, Mr. Lamoriello, not bad.
Oduya was sure going to be a hot commodity on the open market this July, so this Devils fan right here is definitely happy that there is some semblance of awesomeness on the blue [...]

Is it drafty in here?
Oh, it’s almost July. Never mind. Just a weak Entry Draft joke huh. My apologies.
So, it’s that time of year again. The future of the NHL will be determined by the calls of crusty general managers, granting the dreams and wishes of  scrawny framed, baby faced boys far and wide.
How I [...]


Lou Lamoriello is awesome.

I had a dream last night that the Devils won the Stanley Cup.
Rushing to the computer, in dream form of course, I logged onto 2MA to spill my heart out in sheer jubilation. My team won the Cup, finally.
Of course, my password wouldn’t work and the “publish entry” button mysteriously disappeared so I couldn’t even [...]


And another one bites the dust!

Reports out of New York indicate that the New Jersey Devils will take at least two less penalties a game next season.
That’s right, ladies ‘n gents, Bobby Holik is no longer with Black ‘n Red.
After 18 seasons, 11 with the Devils, the 38-year-old bruiser has decided to hang ‘em up.
His reason? He wants to be [...]
