Looks like the Devils are doing their best to miss the playoffs this season. The Devils have dropped 5 points behind the Penguins and are only 12 points above the 9th place Rangers.
On Sunday the Devils were shutout 2-0 by the NHL's 'worst' team, the Oilers, and that's bad enough. But Brodeur was named one of the game's three star players and the Devils were out-shot 35-22.
I thought the signing of Ilya Kovalchuk was meant to strengthen the Devils' offence.
Jacques Lemaire added, "the Devils weren't focused." "We simply went through the motions against a team that doesn't win a lot of games." "The Devils didn't put in the work that is needed for a win."

Next up, the Devils host the Rangers on Wednesday...
