3 cups in 9 years by playing “non” real hockey….When are the Rangers going to get a clue? Go on and grab another superstar that will underperform. Lets see how your team handles a solid 30 million cap next year. Hopefully, by eliminating all the milk your overpriced babies drink will get you there…..ha,ha,ha

Remember after 1995, the Devils almost went to Nashville. Besides, New Jersey gets all their teams from other cities (Denver (Devils), Uniondale (Nets, New Haven (Giants), Flushing(Jets))… except the Metrostars, but that isn’t a major sport. New Jersey should not be angry if their teams are taken from them… they did the same to many other cities.

Goals don't make hockey interesting. Hockey makes hockey interesting and the Devils don't play hockey.

You can even play the trap and have some interesting games. But the Devils play the trap to the fullest. The Devils will get a 1 goal lead and then "ice", well techincally the get past the red line, the puck. That is why the Devils are boring. You can score lots of goals and still have a bad product.

Goals are not an indication of how good a game is. I have watched some of the best games of my life end up 1-0 or 2-1. But when you don't play the game then a 1-0 game is terrible.

Chances are what makes hockey fun. Odd man rushes makes hockey fun. Breakaways make hockey fun. Nifty passes make hockey fun. Big hits make hockey fun. Big saves make hockey fun. Forchecking makes hockey fun.

Sitting between the bluelines interfering with players makes hockey boring.

I ask myself that same question every time I see the Devils play - "Can they move?"

There, Devfanman4, I said it - just to set you off.

I'm here to help.
