Two thoughts as I watch NJ take another lead  

1.  I am glad I didn’t invest my time watching the first two periods.  
2. I don’t know why my expectations are high for this team ?   

The 'initial high' of the royal blue is wearing off...

It's nice to see a hockey team play with energy and enthusiasm. I'm jealous of the Devils.

It's a Lindy Ruff team.  Not the most talented, but the effort is always there.

It's characteristic of dinosaur, re-tread coaches.  The first thing they address is team effort.  Once you get high energy from the roster night after night, the other problems work themselves out.

Your expectations are high because we got two big names.  We thought Eichel and Hall would be some hockey unicorn.  We thought Dahlin would have a breakout season.  

Those we expected to lead us into the playoffs are somewhat of a liability.

Truth!!! Is Gerard Gallant available?

The players concessions took some of the urgency other team was feeling but I think the goalie in question will still be dealt but teams are still feeling we’re they stand.

Sabres will be out of it if they don’t figure it out quickly.  This team is good enough to make the playoffs if they had two Ullmark but carter and his sub .900 goaltending will cost this team a playoff spot.  You can’t be losing to a depleted devils team at home.
