Score: 5 – I agree with the comments from last week saying it should be at a 5, and honestly, nothing really changed this week. They beat two teams (barely the Pens) but lost to the sabres which is just.. awful. The injuries keep stacking by up the day.
This is still concerning, the team still looks flat and I’m hoping for the best, but it’s getting more bleak.

Imo this meter is consistently too pessimistic but that’s just me
Optimism has no place in Devils fandom. We expect to be let down and are pleasantly surprised when that doesn’t happen. But, yeah, we’re 50-50 right now. Injuries aren’t helping. Need support from the bottom lines. Tatar isn’t scoring but he’s been playing his ass off.
More like a 6.5 to me personally. Good that they’ve started winning again but my god the play in the games recently still isn’t nearly where they were at before the break. Plus the injuries keep coming, which does not help at all. Still having issues with inconsistency but at this point I’m hoping that we can swing a trade after 4 nations and fill out some forward depth.
Your sticky note made me realize something… RWJ is probably the source of our health issues, not a solution. It’s not a very good medical system.
Considering our playoff position, this should be tolerable.
We need Doc Galluchi from JAG to come down from the rafters and heal the boys
You could say anywhere from 3-6, but honestly there’s what, two games before a break? Nitpicking doesn’t seem to be helpful; let’s just hope we win these two, hope nobody else gets hurt and embrace the break.
