Devils Vs Giants - League - 21st Oct 22 - 19.30 FO

[BostonBart22]

They got players marked as forwards put the lines as D. Don't know if that mean playing out of position.

Ok thanks.

 

[fridaysfingers]

I'm reading it as 15 skaters 4 x D and 2 netties

If you go down to second page it shows lineups.
First page is incorrect it shows Long and Garside as forwards but they are playing D

Big loss for giants 3 imports down and starting only 4 x D ..must take advantage of this big game, especially after the dismal game v steelers. Players owe us this one..no pressure .

No excuses, a very dominant win with at least a 2 goal margin. As for Bowns, to be honest, it’s like deciding which form of torture you want, he’s the better of the two, not ideal though.

 

[punks]

Question is; can we get 145 or more replies in this thread? As that's the measure of bitter and twistedness at present!

3-1 Devils win is my prediction for tonight. Hoping the team put on a show

 

[Hedd Wyn John]

1st 5 mins is nearly all Giants. Devils barely getting a shot in.

 

[Hedd Wyn John]

Poor mistake from Thompson but can't say a goal hasn't been coming

 

[moggy#9]

Well this is pathetic so far. The devils seem to have little idea beyond aimless stretch passes. They deserve to be that goal down.

 

[moggy#9]

Ok, let's hear the happy clappers defend this. We're getting slaughtered by an under strength giants. The devils look utterly clueless. Luckily bowns is having a good game.

 

[Hedd Wyn John]

2 goals down now. Constantly playing in front of your own net will do that to you eventually. More giants goals to come I fear.

The reason they're doing that is that they're turning the puck over all over the ice.

Quickest way to lose a game is turnovers!

The Giants are doing what the Steelers did to us last week as I feared. Cutting our passing lanes off. Only this Giants team is better than the Steelers. We'll be lucky to score a goal here.

Wow. What an absolute hammering so far. If Giants were 4-0 up after the first it wouldn’t flatter them. Second best all over the ice

The thing is that we persist in these ridiculous stretch passes and telegraphed drop passes. I honestly don't think that Dupont knows what he's doing.

 

[punks]

Is Coxy alright? Lots unforced mistakes tonight.

We look sloppy, dare I say it in some aspects; lazy! Outworked by bang average play. A continuance of the 2nd and 3rd period against Sheffield...

 

[kristian]

We seem to be already on the bus.

 

[Kevin roog]

Flat again, I hope dupointless get them fired up and more physical second period

The Giants are only one import down, same as us.
They seemed to choose to go short on brits although losing Lewis Hook didn’t help that situation.
We are getting slaughtered but not really by an under strength team.

As has been said in commentary, players enjoy the extra icetime so maybe they are going mainly with three lines for the season knowing they have two spare imports to freshen it up and cover injuries.

I like that and may need to steal it. ;-) I was thinking that he's hockey's version of Liz truss.
