I would like to apologize for the overreaction tonight
The fact that we’ve dominated teams night in and night out and have one bad off night isn’t embarrassing
The embarrassment is knowing how good this team is, while they play so bad when so many people are watching
Where does this fall among the most embarrassing Devils regular season losses of the last 10 years
Funny enough the opening loss against WPG in 2019 is probably the worst I can recall
Markstrom 9GA vs NYI is up there
Luke Hughes 2 own goal game

I can’t lie somebody needs to be fired
Special teams have been abysmal all year
For a team so focused on making strides in the playoffs, our PP and PK are not even close to playoff caliber
This is a special teams loss for the Devils tonight. The power play and penalty kill were both horrific. #NJDevils

The easiest statement game of all time and now we won’t hear the end of it
Good job boys on showing absolutely zero effort you’ve really done it this time

This is one of the worst periods I’ve seen the Devils play all season. Just a severe disappointment in what could have been a statement game. Not sure what to say beyond that
Today the devils showed the world that we can’t win in the spotlight
They should all be fucking embarrassed

On a serious note - Hellebuyck confirming that not only was his family harassed with online death threats, but it did in fact go further than that, should be enough to put this entire discourse to bed
Leave the guy alone. Chapter closed. Move on. You get nothing.
Almost liked a hate tweet because I thought it was about when Markstrom gave up 9 goals and they still didn’t pull him
They could put 10 on Allen and he ain’t coming out. Protect the bitch ass pussy Hellebuyck with everything they can. With the Devils only playing here once a year, he may never play in Winnipeg again. They’ll protect him forever

Any logical heat NJ/Connor is taking is fair game for several reasons.
But @Sid_Seixeiro saying he would pay WPG fans to STALK the Devils & Connor Hellebuyck for the rest of the season...THIS is the EXACT reason he asked out.
Get a handle, man. Look inward. YOU'RE the problem.
If we use our brains for a second
Would you rather have your goalie play both games against a top divisional opponent (Capitals) or a worse non conference team (Jets)
Yes, the game would be cinema but winning is always more important than a cool narrative
Here’s coach putting it better than random twitter user (me)
Sheldon Keefe on the Devils decision to not play Hellebuyck in Winnipeg via NJD.tv:
"I think the release speaks for itself. When you look at it from my perspective, as you break it down as the coach, first, important to say that we had to make it clear to Connor why and give him some understanding. In his words, he really felt it was his duty to go and play and all of that.
But look at it from our end of it. Tonight was his third game in six nights. He’s been at this for less than two weeks with us. Then after we finish this road game in Winnipeg, we’re going to go home to two big divisional games waiting for us.
I understand the sensitivity to the situation. When you’re hyper-focused on that game, as the Jets fans would be, understandably, from our perspective, when you zoom out, this is a goaltender that is not going to play every single game of the season. You’re always looking for times to give him a night off, and the schedule falling the way that it does, it just made sense.
As I said, in talking with Sunny, it was pretty clear that it wasn’t even really up for discussion because of all those reasons." #NJDevils #GoJetsGo
