NJ Devils Month in Review: January 2010

Well that was a rough month wasn’t it??? Too many games in too short a time… and not enough good healthy bodies….But yet with the major OMG WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE panic fits in Devils fan Universe (we do have fans out there right??)…. I’m shocked the mass suicides haven’t started piling up…. Or do [...]

The Night The Lights Went Out In Jersey

So.  That was strange.
Look, I know the PSE&G Power Play sucked tonight, but seriously.  C’mon.
I take full blame for the power outage, by the way.  I was in the arena tonight, and for no good reason whatsoever, myself and my friend Amanda got into a discussion about how there hasn’t been a leak in the [...]

Captainbrunner = Hattrickenbrunner

Okay, so I gotta work on the name.  I can’t help it if Hat Trick doesn’t fit in as nicely for Langenbrunner as it does Andy Greene (Greenetrick!) or Niklas Bergfors (Bergtrick!) or Patty Elias (Hatrik, of course).
But yes, Jamie Langenbrunner, fresh off his addition to the roster of Team USA as token old guy, [...]

The Best. Ever. Period.

Mr. Shutout

I’m a busy, busy man for the next week and a half.  My posts will be few and far between.  But I have the time for this.  There’s ALWAYS time for the Wonka picture.
Martin Brodeur, to the Buffalo Sabres, as he’s said to 102 others before them:

Marty, you’re the man.  ‘Grats, sir.

Mmmm, Victory

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 our announcers?)
Anyhoo.  [...]

ECQF GAME 1: THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE DOWNRIGHT RIDICULOUS

I sense peach fuzz on the chins of sweaty men in hockey pants — that must mean it’s time for another edition of 2MA’s Playoff Recap — THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE DOWNRIGHT RIDICULOUS!
THE GOOD
Uh, everything? The boys came out swingin’ tonight. Looking like players possessed, Black ‘n Red effortlessly flew across the ice [...]

F&!$ it, I’m pressing it.

Angry?  Yep.
Embarrassed?  You betcha.
Scared?  Try friggin’ petrified.
Thanks, Devils.  Just thanks.
I’d love to give some sort of insight, but I’ve missed the last few games (night classes – a curse and a blessing, apparently).  I’m kind of happy I didn’t see anything but the last three minutes of tonight’s game.
Scratch that, I’m kind of mad I [...]

Oh boy.

The Devils are awesome.
Pretty much all that needs to be said.

The Day After

It’s been said over and again, by Scott last night, by comments both here and elsewhere, by talking heads on TV.  Last night, simply, was amazing.
I sat down to try to put something up on this blog before heading back to my much-less-thrilling day job, and I wasn’t sure what I was going to say.  [...]
