Jake Allen & Nick DeSimone were Impressive in NJ Devils Debut. They Shined in the 6-2 Win Over the Dallas Stars last night. Jake Allen was recently acquired from the Montreal Canadiens on NHL trade deadline day and Nick Desimone was picked up off waivers from the Calgary Flames some time ago, but with injuries to Hamilton, Siegenthaler, and Marino out it gave space for Desimone to make his Devils Debut. He Led the TEAM in Ice time, has an assist, 3 blocked shots, and 4 Hits. He made his mark to get another shot and with that Win last night the Devils are only 4 points back of a Wild Card Spot. Can they go on a run and squeak into a playoff spot?

Yes! This win is absolutely beautiful but it must translate to something meaningful, i.e. a winning streak 😅 Arizona and Vegas can be beaten with the same type of effort 🎉 great debuts for Nick and Jake the snake 😂 LFGD 💥
It was a fun one to watch. I was pretty worried with Allen after those first couple goals but luckily the other Jake in goal was also have a rough game on the other end. What a weird first period.
I was impressed with the defense last night and especially impressed with the devil’s commitment to just protecting the lead in the 3rd AND still adding one more goal.
I wonder if this was the devils playing well and/or the Stars having a rough night.
Id love to see them build on this with some confidence. Especially the new guys in the line up…maybe they can get everyone fired up.
I think Green has made some good, common sense decisions in the line up so far. Timo on the correct wing, mercer playing with hischier…hell, even holtz got a goal playing with timo. I like luke and nemec together.
Its not relevant to this game but I think they should move Luke off the powerplay first line. Give nemec his spot. Then id feel pretty damn confident
Impressive win. I hope we can keep this going! Also I really hope DeSimome stays in the line up. He showed a lot of heart.
Finally Mercer is back playing with Nico.
It's almost like the entire hockey world forgot that for 2 months last season, the line of Mercer- Hischer- Tatar was the hottest line in hockey.
Still have no reason why Jack is not taking faceoffs ( has not since his return from injury).
Good win.
And a breath of life!
It was a fun game for sure. Something we all needed. I’m not thinking playoffs just because of one win. Go get 4 pts this weekend if you want to be serious about making it interesting. Regardless then play has improved.
I live in New York City so every time we lose the Rangers I have to hear it from six different people but good win last night LGD!!!
Almost turned off the game after the first goal, glad I decided against that. Lets Go Devils!
Amazing how even just a mid-level type goalie can make the team that much better. It just illustrates how poor the tending has been so far.
I was surprised & happy that the Devils beat Dallas last night! I thought for sure that the Devils was going to lose!
