The New Jersey Devils blow another glorious opportunity tonight, losing to the Buffalo Sabres by a score of 5-2 at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, NY.
The Devils of course had to tease us before sticking the knife in our hearts.
They took a 2-0 lead after 1, and then did absolutely nothing for the rest of the game.
Typical 2023-2024 NJ Devils.
I talk about the game in this recap video.

Great idea firing Lindy y'all. Great call to the fans who called for it. The damage that was done by that firing to a young, building team that loved him, may be irreversable. The "fire Lindy" crowd has A LOT to do with all this. Live with it, and stop complaning after getting exactly what you wanted.
YOU HAVE A KID??
Edit: Oh. Nephew. Okay. I was STUNNED for a minute 😳
I missed the game but followed it on the app. Looks like I didn't miss much. What a joke. Just pathetic. This will ensure Travis Green is not the coach of the future. Hopefully, Sullivan is cut loose, and Fitz can bring him to NJ.
we are the most unserious team in the NHL get the analytics team to prove it the stats
I’m not surprised, it’s their M.O. this season.
The next meaningful game is October 4th in Prague.
If I fly 5000 miles to watch bs, I’m going to drink a lot of Czech Pilsner. 🙂
Horrible season, lots of missed opportunities, poor management, etc.
Time to put this season to rest, maybe another Dante’s Inferno video. lol
Goodbye 2023-2024 NJ Devils season. Flying home to watch the games were fun, the Stadium Series game was awesome. My glass seat game in Sunrise was great. Love it when they come down to Florida and beat the Panthers. Meeting Lazar and Bahl was cool. Got my game used jersey signed by Lazar.
That’s cool you got the little guy into the Devils! I was about his age when I went to my first game. Hooked ever since, except for a little break from the madness.
Peace
now make another take of tonights game without your kid. I want to hear your real thoughts about the game and the team.

Was at the game, best money I've spent to watch the world's greatest disappearing act in the 2nd and 3rd periods
Someone in the broadcast mentioned "mental fortitude." That's exactly what was missing in this game, and probably the whole year. They don't lack talent. They don't even lack physical toughness. They're not a bad team at all, but they have found just enough ways to stay afloat in the race that the losses are all the more painful. I only hope it makes them mentally tougher in the future.
Totally pathetic. They whip the leafs but get handled by the Sabres? Nemec got smoked like he wasn’t even playing. Not sure who it was but another devil watches the puck go into the corner and just stares at it???? Straight up they don’t want it.
Hate to say I told you so. I knew they would choke in this game and not make it 3 in a row.
tell lil bro that uncle jayviation said wussup, anyways im done with the devils 🙂
As much as I would like to see changes to the D core, the term we have left on veteran contracts would make it tricky.
Wow you literally took the words out of my mouth… When the game was over I thought “why do I let them keep breaking my heart ?!” You’re absolutely right, we’re all sick in the head 😂😂😂we’re such dedicated fans so I guess it’s really hard to accept..
I really love your channel, especially since I don’t live in Jersey I often feel nobody here understands me lol
I've said it before on your channel: This team needs to be in mini-rebuild mode if we want to make something out of the Hughes/Hischier/Timo window. Tonight's game was proof yet again that any team with size and skill cannot only beat us, but they can impose their will on us completely-with no resistance. We cannot win with the team as currently constructed. At this point, I'd gladly trade away Holtz and Mercer and replace them with players who have size and physicality and can hold the zone to allow our skill guys more opportunities to create. I'd also move on from Marino and Siegenthaler if I can get rugged defensemen with a bit snarl and nastiness. I'd keep MacDermid if the money is there. Fitz better succeed in his "big game hunting" at goal as well and get us a true number 1 with Allen as a solid 1a. Travis Green and the remnants of the Ruff staff need to go as well. The fact that I am basically typing out a vintage WFAN caller's fever dream wish list shows you how deficient this roster truly is. Sadly, our ownership group is probably too wrapped up with the Commanders to fire Fitzgerald.
Well… It's officially over now for anyone who was holding out. Let's play spoiler to PHI/NYI, and get some entertaining justice on 4/3.
Travis Green is definitely not the guy to be Head Coach next season. Fitz needs to hire someone from the outside this summer. I think either Craig Berube or Mike Sullivan are great choices but Travis Green definitely is not the one to lead this team going forward.
This season will go down as one of the strangest and bizarre seasons in Devils history. From the goalie troubles, to the injuries, to the coaching, to the poor management, to the mostly winning against playoff caliber teams, to the mostly losing to non-playoff caliber teams. I just hope everything gets fixed this summer. What a mess.
Steve Dangle's calling card has become talking out of his ass.
Wow unreal
Where are the money guys. L hughes sucks.
Devils up 2-0 and we start doing blind passes up the middle it’s astonishing we just need to hold a lead and play safe who cares win the games
Ohh so true. This was impossible to describe. I have nothing left.
I was always hopeful but facts are facts, we just don't have a championship team. I'd rather they not make it into the playoffs, sparing us an embarrassing elimination.
Allen was shakey and Hughes needs to stop being so cute.
Jake Allen needs to sue his agent for putting him in another situation where his defense lets him down. He did play well enough tog et a win. The D is too soft.
Not enough hits. That's the game.
Hey, cute kid. Nice job dad.
Settle down big fella. This is just a reset year. A few adjustments in the off-season and things will be fine. It is what it is. Go Devils
I really didn't like Jack's game tonight. No killer instinct.
I finally get home, search YouTube so I can watch the game, and there you go in the search results printing the score right in the title… Spoilers much? Come on dude.
In the off season, fire Green, hire Sullivan as coach, get Gudas, and get Markstrom.
adorable
