Just swinging by to share some of my cautious optimism about this team. Although the first period of the second game against Glasgow was scoreless, I was more entertained in those 20 minutes of play than I was all of last season! There was forechecking, battling hard at the boards, driving the net, options on the powerplay... I'd forgotten what all of that looked like in a Devils jersey! I particularly like the look of Ryan Barrow - he reminds me ever so slightly of Joey Haddad, and he's mad effective in front of the net, which you've got to love, and that's something we've been missing... probably since Dixon left! I also think Harewood looks like an exciting player who could be one or two seasons away from making the full step-up to Elite league play. I'm excited about this team.
