I thought Zidlicky was great last night when I was watching in the late second and early third periods. He made a lot of smart plays.

Ryan Carter had a good night too....he was a factor
He went from being a hockey player at 7:05 to becoming a "Devil" at 7:40

Josefson definitely had his best game of this season, but (and I'm not trying to call specifically you out, this just made me think about it) I think a lot of people forget how good he looked at times last season.

However, there's definitely some extra credit for assisting the back-breaking goal against a tough Rangers team, so I'll keep my head turned I guess.

Figured this would get bumped. He looked good again tonight, on both ends of the ice. Picked up two well deserved assists. His shot-pass on Clarkson's goal was a thing of beauty, the only other defenceman we have who I've seen do that this season is Larsson.

You could tell the points would come, he's just too smooth an offensive player for them not to. His passes are incredibly crisp, and he's not been a liability defensively. He'll continue to get better as he adjusts to our system.

Two games? Praising him after two freaking games? How dare you!

New team, new teammates, new system + struggle the first couple of games = failure and terrible trade

Paitence people, paitence......last two games have been fantastic

I can't stress his passing enough either it has been great

And our PP looks good too, now that he's adjusted to his role on it. Replaced Foster fairly seamlessly, I'd say.

If he doesn't look like complete trash through the playoffs, I'll call it a win. I mean, how many defensemen have we had where it didn't take them basically an entire year after signing (or being traded for) to get properly adjusted?

Only one I can think of, Malakhov.

Oh, Chambers.

Thing is, it wasn't just his first couple of games that had everyone jumping off the bandwagon, it was the entirety of his season in Minnesota as well. But yeah he's been resembling more the Zidlicky of old lately rather than an old Zidlicky.

His time this season in Minnesota shouldn't have been taken to account to me at least

He didn't get along with the coach and we all know that deal and how it can affect a player

NJ is a new slate for him

Not only is it a fresh start, but Lemaire clearly liked (and endorsed bring in) the player. hmmm I'll trust JL's hockey mind over Yeo's.

There was a reason for that. A reason some wanted to ignore. But stats don`t lie duuude! I said "trust me, he`s still a player" and I mean what I say.
