Newcastle 2-7 Manchester. Just goes to show that Devils lost to a very poor team last night at home. Sorry to be pessimistic, but I can't see us even being close to Giants on Thursday!
But lets be honest, last night if Jarvis hadnt gifted them a goal would they have scored? Other than when they were on a powerplay newcastle never really troubled us apart from hitting the post in the second period.
For me Jarvis was pretty bad last night, he made that costly error and just tried to persue personal battles. this was highlighted at a time in the third when we were on the penalty kill attempting to get the box formation going and he was to busy cross checking and following the guy near him and we lost our shape. I also feel this carried over to the penalty he took in OT. I actually think he has been decent this season but last night i felt he put himself in front of the team.
