a top heavy team and campbell. devils depth should wreak havoc on the rest of them.
Then it's all about execution and seizing the chances we get. I hope they have all that overpassing nonsense out of their system, we need to put everything on net.
No one was willing to reveal the meaning of the dice. There are 16 visible dots – the number of wins needed to capture the Stanley Cup – but the players would not confirm that was the symbolism there.
“It’s a secret,” Kovalchuk said.
“It’s symbolic,” backup goaltender Johan Hedberg said. “It’s like a Dan Brown novel.”
Regardless of the meaning (I’ll keep digging for the answer), it’s just another example of the tight bond between the players on this team as they gear up for what they hope will be a long postseason run.
The game nerd in me appreciates that the Devils have basically identified themselves with the Zerg Swarm from Starcraft. They come fiercely in waves, with no restraint, no mercy, no surrender.
I just came across it the other day while flipping through Bruce performances on YT so I did a little editing and put it up last night

Let's go boys! The last two nights have been appetizers, can't wait for tonight.
I remember you telling me about wearing the hat there, but when I first saw it the other day (and the Devils part doesn't do justice to everything else he busted MSG's balls about) I couldn't stop laughing
Isn't Detroit the only team thats allowed to throw octopus on the ice? I think they will let the rats slide for the first goal if/when that happens. After that they'll make the announcement to not throw things on the ice and then we'll see if they follow through with penalties after that. If it turns into a 10 minute event to clean up the ice after a goal I'm sure the NHL will stop it and even if they don't it'll be taking the momentum away from the Panthers by standing around and doing nothing while it gets cleaned up.
they would have to let the first one slide, like the detroit example. i have no problem with that.... but like you said if it becomes stupid then they have to lay down the law.....after all like the 'marty rule' we now have things like the 'rat rule' and the 'avery rule'.

Wow. Saugus just went full nerd there. I didnt know he was going to do that.
i realize its now a whole new slate in the playoffs but wow the panthers really did ride the short bus into clinching the 3rd seed and division title....2-3-5 in the last 10.
