Big up to Devils TV for utilising the big screens to show a live feed of the game and immediate instant replys for key moments and plays. Often thought the screens were under utilised, thought it really added to the match night experience!

That's possibly the only post I've agreed with in this thread.
It's also possibly the only post I've understood in this thread.

Try not to lose any sleep over it

After trying to make some sense of this thread, a quick word to the wise - don’t post after drinking!

Regarding actual, you know, hockey... How did Dupont do? I'm starting to wonder about his apparent lack of production.

Guildford have always been a strong Cup tournament team....the Devils' nemisis in recent years.
The Devils will be relieved to get that win in such a close game. It will be very difficult in the return game. Guildford have a great home record.

Anyone know why Devils weren't playing in the alternate jerseys?

Heard something about they’re still waiting on the shorts covers for the alternate jersey.

Having a close match like that the day before a big game with Sheffield really brings home the value of having two excellent netminders. I imagine we'll start a fresh carruth tonight.

Point of order: they are exactly the same people.
With one addition who runs the on screen visuals during the game.

Back to normal programming...

Hardly noticed the fella, anonymous once again. Not good considering he was meant to be the first line center

He looked a bit sharper last night, a few more glimpses of what he can do. Looked like he was on the 3rd line, same line as Lammon actually which I didn't expect to happen.

Someone made a comparison to Layne Ulmer on here, and I fully expect that to be the case. A slow start, but will start to get the measure of the league and will adapt and will be a crucial player for us later on.

Very good game last night, and two great displays by both netties, good fast game with some physicality thrown in. Fantastic crowd generating a great atmosphere, really like the look of this team Kozun rightly man of the match. Can’t wait till 4pm so I can see this team again, with some niggles creeping in hopefully.

If one of the younger guys was struggling I could understand it (but they all seem to be doing really well), but I find the Dupont situation puzzling.

We may be on a fools errand to look for settled lines and roles.

Icing 11 forwards over 4 lines means a mix and match approach. Apparently this is typical AHL so we need to trust Skalde he's been there done that.

As ever who knows what instructions are given to players whatever we think they should be
