The New Jersey Devils return to the Rock from Quebec to take on the Washington Capitals in another preseason game. Maybe the last for a few of the team set to go to Prague. We shall see. Talk about it here as it happens.
The plan for the New Jersey Devils is to send their roster for their season opening games in Prague this weekend. This means tonight’s preseason game at the Rock should be the last for most of the key guys to possibly play. Even if that is not the case, the two main points of preseason apply: play well and don’t get hurt.
The Time: 7:00 PM ET
The Broadcast: TV: NHL Network, Monument (if you’re in DC); Digital: ESPN+, NJ Devils official website has a stream; Audio: Devils Hockey Radio
The Matchup: The New Jersey Devils vs. the Washington Capitals
The Song of the Evening: OK, I know I wrote in yesterday’s Gamethread that the school theme would not be all pop-rock songs…but here is another one. This was a hit in the 90s, the music video was at Bayonne High, and it can teach you some key rules about breaking up and getting attention and a suggestion about a one-month limit on dating that is a fresh look and is such a good idea. It’s “Popular” by Nada Surf from High/Low. (By the way, their third album, Let Go, is really good.)
The Rules: The rules remain as they are as the Devils resuming preseason in New Jersey. Please keep your language clean (this means no swearing, don’t mask it, it’s not enough, no I don’t care what Tom Fitzgerald said), respect your fellow Devils fan with no personal attacks (play nice or you will not play here), no illegal streams (this means no asking, no hints, no nothing about it), and please keep your comments relevant to this game. Go Devils!
