GDT: Devils @ Crunch 10/30/10

I think we win this one. I agree tougher play is needed tonight. Anyone think we will see a Mirasty/ Robitaille bout?

Well If he mans up and does his job he gets paid to do, Fight, we will.And one more thing..... Mirasty needs to start laying the lumber on the other teams skilled and better players... be an agitator.Take the whole focus of the other team and put it on him.All he does is goes out, fights once and thats it.... No one in the league wants to fight him so MAKE them fight him.Im just sick of the same old... Mirasty goes out fights and then sits..... He needs to get under the other players skin... push and shove when the play stops..... talk "trash" to the other teams best players.... he doesnt always hafta fight.Actually he should try pissing the other team off and not fighting... Carcillo was great at this and it always helped his team and well we see where he is playing now.... NHL.

GO CRUNCH !! BEAT ALBANY !!!

GETTTTTTTTTT ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT OUUTTTTAAAA THERRRRRREEEEEEEE!!!!!!

I hope so but so far when I've been looking forward to Mirasty fighting the other guy is scratched.
(Lessard,Fritz).

I agree....Mirasty needs to be more of an agitator. His second fight last night may have backfired.They scored 2 goals after that fight.He needs to be the second coming of David Ling.

We didn't give up 2 goals because of the fight. We gave up those goals by not pushing the offense. When they go into that defensive mode we seem to lose momentum. Come on, I thought Ross and his no fighting with the lead rule left town. The boys are young and seem to panic whenever the other team gets a goal. Hopefully they grow out of that soon.

Nice win tonight, but another late goal. Once this team matures, they could be scary.

Sadly, in the middle of the third, Robataille declined Mirasty's invite.

Thumbs down to Brittain. If you're going to get your clock cleaned, at least only take a five minute penalty, not 44. Stupid move. Wait til the faceoff next time.

I wasn't exactly impressed with Salters either. He was raved to be a fighter. Maybe next time.

Also, as someone else said, this team needs to start HITTING. In the final minutes of the third, they backed off every time in the corners.

Aside from Festerling, I didn't see anyone tossing their weight around.

And to syraspike, in an early or preseason interview with Kramer, Mirasty said that's the role he wanted to take this year. Maybe Coach H won't let him. I love Mirasty as much as the next guy, but what good is a one fight a game. Scare the other guys, toss some semi-dirty hits and make guys fight you that wouldn't otherwise.

Good win. They have to stop letting in these late goals. I know Albany had the extra attacker
but they have to learn to protect their zone.

One thing for sure is I'll never get tired of that Deschamps-Bonino-Palmieri line.
They're just loaded with talent and every time they hit the ice they're a threat to score.
I hope they stay together all year.

Well we got 3 out of 4 not too bad a weekend.

I agree that top line is scary good right now but seem to get better every game. Good win tonight and the team seems to get better and better every game well except for that Hamilton game.
