It's interesting going on the Devils boards and almost all of their fans aren't worried and still have no doubt they will beat the Canes. I know this was a letdown spot for them, but man they look overmatched against our forecheck. They were lucky the posts saved them from having a TD scored on them. Also funny that all of their fans are saying that the Rags are a way better team than us - While the Rangers top 6 is made up of better scorers, our forwards don't get nearly enough credit for their backcheck and covering for our dmen when they pinch. Their forwards also had zilcho chemistry and it became even more obvious during their playoff series.

We just have to be smart with our positioning, because it seems like the Devils rely on counters for scoring. We can't be overly aggressive in our forecheck and give them odd man rushes. Keep running our 2 to 3 man forecheck, keep a couple back deep for breakouts, and keep forcing the Devils into turnovers in their zone.

They don't think two of the goals shoulda counted and the refs targeted their team and that's why they lost as bad as they did.  Even saw some say that the canes didn't generate hardly anything at all and was lucky to win the way they did. 

 

Even saw a few say that with the goals that shouldn't have counted from bad ref calls that they should have been up after 2. 

 

Don't know what they saw, but it's gonna be a short series for them if they don't dominate the canes in the face offs and start generating high danger shots at least on their pp.
