  2. It looks like a few of us regulars were too depressed to keep watching after the 2nd and turned it off.

    Guys, we all unfortunately need to play it safe and not watch anymore games.

  4. Hooray. They barely eat a team worse than they are. They’re gonna do what they always do. Stop the bleeding for a few gabes, string us along, get our hopes up, then disappoint again.

    I would love to be wrong though

  5. From Bryce, to Dano, and especially the team, this is the energy we need for 2026. LGD!

  6. Happy for the win but they played about 5 minutes of great hockey and the rest of that game was so bad.

  7. Really glad they got that win. Was not home last night and couldn’t watch. I also didn’t watch all of the Vegas and Utah games and missed part of the Washington game and they got wins/points in all of those games so I guess I have to stop watching full games! I hope they can build on that comeback. Happy New Year everyone, I hope it’s a great one for our team.

  8. The devils total offense in the last 6 periods has come in literally a two minute span. All this means is Keefe is going to coach another game for this team

  9. Please fire Fitz. Save this core from his incompetence. His drafting acumen is even worse than Lou’s later years.

  10. Not a pretty game by any means, but it’s nice to see a gutsy come-from-behind win!

  11. Rewatching the highlights, look at how psyched Brown is after Luke’s goal (you can see on the wide shot replay). Along with his skillset, it seems like he was a great add for the culture.

    Put those vibes in a jar and bring em with you to every game, boys.

  13. I wanted to say in before the doomers but apparently I was wrong. On to the next one boys 

  14. Definition of “they don’t ask how, they just ask how many” hopefully this is a spark that catches something.

  16. When you’re in a spiral, any win is a good win. But they were really only good for literally 2 minutes. The previous 40 was bordering on seriously pathetic and they barely hung on there at the end.

    The biggest positive during this stretch has been goaltending. Allen as usual, and it seems like Markstrom is finally coming around.

    They have to go on a run, so many teams to leapfrog.

  17. **“Let us remember this day, hours before the dawn of the new year – when the devils came to Columbus and delivered a spectacular comeback after being down by two in the third – as the day the Devils turned the season around… Happy New Year Devils fans! We’ll see you in 2026!”** -Bill Spaulding (if he still worked for msg)

  19. The thing I take away from the game yesterday is the following:

    When Dano says ‘Weeeellll…that is unfortunate” he is really thinking ‘I cannot believe [fill in Devils player] made such an idiotoic boneheaded %#&^**%# stupid play.’
