The Devils beat the Rangers last night. There were a lot of highlights like Mikhail Maltsev, John Hayden, Damon Severson, Connor Carrick and Cory Schneider. Team defense was a struggle, however, as Ty Smith had a rough night.
We chat about how the goal songs worked the other night vs. BOS, Xavier Bernard not getting a preseason game again, the other camp cuts, NHLPA not re-opening the CBA, 2019-20 NHL rule changes and a look at tonight's matchup vs. NYR.
Training camp is open! We catch up on the Hall/Shero comments, other notes & quotes of interest, who's NOT playing on Monday and breaking down/analyzing the two split-squad rosters.
It's Episode 500! We open the show with the re-shaped DI logo, the first-ever logo for Devils Daily and some other new ventures before we reflect on the previous 499 episodes and move into a discussion about the recent Prospects Challenge.
We discussed the news from yesterday about Pavel Zacha agreeing to terms with a team in the KHL and hit on all of the angles about his Devils future as his new contract with NJD was announced in the midst of recording.
We're back from Labor Day and wanted to discuss a few minor Devils things including Ben Lovejoy's retirement, the Prospect Challenge roster, the new goal song vote(!), Noesen/Stafford PTOs and Brian Gionta being named to the US HHOF.
It's the last DevilsDaily of the summer. We touched on some current things like the podcast changing platforms, Bill Guerin to MIN, Pat Maroon to TB, Pavel Zacha missing camp and some various AHL/ECHL notes. Then we tackle all your questions (39:31) to close out the show.
