I hate losing 1-1 when Buffalo's one goal was a turd in a box.

they just need to get back on track!
So can 29 other NHL teams. Not the point. This team is very inconsistent and if they want any success this season, there's going to have to be a change in some of the personnel.

And how's the top 6 on fire? The whole team has only been able to put together 3 goals in the past 3 games.

I don't think he's known as much of a goal scorer, he's got good vision and passing.

Miller didn't steal this one. He played an excellent game, but the Devils had wide open nets and missed. That's a lack of finish.

And even worse is that Marty played really well too, and would have had a shutout if not for the flukiest of fluky goals.

Just because you out shoot a team doesn't mean the team will always win.

Canadian Devil or w.e=I wasn't talking out of my ass. Miller played well but give me a break. We had numerous opportunities to finish them in the 3rd and Ot. Open nets, point blank chances, Kovy's tap-in during overtime? Come on. They don't finish well. It's been a problem for years.

At least we got a point, but losing to Buffalo seriously sucks.

i'm not worried because i saw a glimpse of what they were capable of during that overtime. if they can somehow stay on that level consistently we will be fine.

I believe someone said something about the Brodeur effect. I am starting to think you're right. It's too coincidental that Goaltenders who give up 4 goals a night like Pavalec, and Miller are looking like Tim Thomas every night.

Why is this? I don't believe in this coincidence crap. This team did EVERYTHING right tonight, and somehow played like it was Lundqvist, or Thomas. Don't gimme that ''Miller is good, and Buffalo is good blah blah blah blah'' crap like every bad team we lose to. I don't care if he won the Vezina 2 years ago. I haven't seen a game like this from him since before he was taken out in November. Also the team hasn't won in 5 games

I've lost faith I really have. We have the ability to be an offensive force we have the ability to beat the Rangers or Flyers half the time at least offensively. We need a run where we barrel through everyone like with Lemaire or the second half of 05/06.

Glad we get a week to prepare for a disappointing Rangers game. At least they're ACTUALLY GOOD, and have a CONSISTENTLY GOOD GOALTENDER!

Good thing we have a week off, they need something to turn the tides. 3 goals in 3 games? We need zajac back and more offense or we'll be golfing early again

It wasn't as lopsided as everyone thinks, yeah they doubled them up in shots but most were weak as hell. Miller came up big on Kovy in OT and Poni in close.

Scoring chances were 21-20 in favor of the Devils.
