  1. Where’s the guy who tweeted out that it might not be as bad as originally thought. Was the alternative to surgery amputation?

  4. Sucks. Hopefully this gives him enough time to recover and do some strength training before camp.

    Fitz we arent winning a cup. Sell high on Kovy play the kids on defense get a top 6 forward with term and or some new bottom 6 players because if we roll the same bottom 6 next year its pitchfork time

  5. This was the smart move.

    He’s young. This season’s team will not win the cup. Fix it get it right and prepare for next year.

  15. That’s escalated quickly. Fwiw if it’s the right choice it’s the right choice, regardless of how disappointing that is for the season.

  16. I SAY CAP YOU SAY SPACE (just trying to find a silver lining, this sucks)

  17. I really hope he bounces back from this one. Godspeed, Jack.

    And y’know what? It’s too easy to despair, so I’m gonna choose to believe I can be surprised by these guys and see if they can unlock something over these next few weeks.

  19. When it rains it pours and it is quite literally pouring out right now and in Devil land. What a brutal past few days for this franchise. Another surgery. I really feel for Jack and worry for his future at the same time. Also what does this mean for the team, I’m guessing Fitz does nothing is my gut feeling. I still hope they get into the playoffs. I don’t want to give up on Nico, Bratt, Marky and the rest of the guys who have worked hard all season.

  21. I’m glad he got the surgery and didn’t try to play through it for 2 months again.

  23. Anyone say sell is legitmately out to lunch. They should not be selling and telling the core, sorry better luck next year if Jack holds up. You can’t keep pissing years away with the core guys to protect draft picks and prospects. You’re in a playoff spot, make the trades with the cap space you gain from this and make sure the person or people you go after have term so they are apart of the future.

  25. I still believe. We’ve got Bratt, Nico, Markstrom, Meir.. We’re still nothing to laugh at!

  26. Fuck Wes McCauley
    Fuck this season
    I know we’re still in the playoffs right now but considering he was one of the only forwards scoring we’re most likely fucked

  29. I guess you can throw Gabe Trevino’s credibility into the same bonfire the Devils’ season just got thrown into

  32. Honestly, team put aside- just SO fucking devastated for him. What a frustrating and awful thing to go through, ontop of the physical pain of it all. Poor dude. Hope he has a quick and gentle recovery

  34. Season isn’t over yet. Enough with the doom and gloom BS. This is a chance for other guys on the team to step up and show what they’re made of.

  35. Jack sure got a lot from Ellen. Like his face, his skating, and his complete inability to have a healthy playing career.

    Gonna make like him and fuck off until next season, amigos.
