Don't be upset, be minimally disappointed. This team has won seven rounds, seven!!! That's great. We lost to a great team, despite giving them a game or two. And besides we are Conference and Division Champs. That's not bad. And look at the future. My god, we can be hoisting the cup again next year. We are built for the future. The Rangers aren't going to win dick next year. And I find it hard to believe the AVS can keep them all together to win next year. WE have a great chance. Look at our core.

Were either of these comments really necessary Bob? I mean, come on now. We gave them a game or two? The Devils didn't give the Avalanche jack shit. They flat out beat us and beat us bad in a couple of games. Do we already forget the Game 1 5-0 beating and the Game 6 4-0 embarassment?
As for the Rangers comment, I am a Devils fan and the Rangers are our top rivalry, but what the hell did that have anything to do with tonight. Must we taint Colorado's victory and Ray Bourque's capturing of the cup after 22 years with this crap?

What's the point of insulting the Rangers man??...we have new management and some money to get people like Sakic. So don't worry bout us Bob. And BTW, you guys shouldve lost to Toronto anyway.

Colorado was in no way, shape or form the better team. They just played like the better team. At least the Devils didnt get completely embarassed in game seven...we scored a goal! Yeah! Of course, there was no way Colorado was gonna give up a three goal lead, but hey, at least we got the meaningless score that made the game at least look a little more respectable.

What does this team need to do for next year? Well, number one, they gotta stop reading about how good they are and start playing like they are actually good. At times in this series they dominated. Unfortunately, not enough. Colorado was fairly consistent throughout. Oh, and get rid of Brodeur. His run is over. I dont wanna see him in net anymore. Can he stand on his head and win a game for us? Well, he doesnt see many shots so his concentration...lets see if someone else can concentrate, huh? Im tired of seeing the other team shoot under 20 shots on goal and, oh look, the Devils lose 3-1. He an average goaltender with above average puck handling skills.

Oh, and I guess the dynasty is over. The more I heard people discussing the Devils "place in history" on the radio and the more I heard everyone saying the Devils should win this one the more I KNEW they would blow it. Absolutely KNEW it. Two of the four losses in this final were and embarrassment. Did the Devils show up for games one and six?? Didnt really look like it. Nice how they gave up after the first period in game six. Good heart there. This whole playoff year this team showed far too little grit and heart. Losing two games to Carolina? Going to a seventh game against Toronto? Losing game one of the STANLEY CUP FINALS 5-0?? How do you lose the first game of the FINALS 5-0??? And thats the most frustrating thing...cause it was there. This isnt the Knicks-Spurs a few years ago. This isnt a team that should be content just getting there. Because all year weve heard how good this team is.

Well, shit, noones gonna read all this crap. Maybe this loss and the knowledge that if they had played harder and smarter they might have been hoisting the Cup will propell the Devils to the Finals again next year. And maybe next time theyll win it.

Uh they pretty much proved it on the ice. Most Devil fans can even admit that.

Just imagine if they had Forsberg, how bad it would have been

I have to admit the Devs were outplayed by the Avs in that series. I don't know if they were the better team but they sure did play like it.

IF they had Forseberg, I think the Devils would have definitely won the series.

I'm the biggest devils fan in the world..and this series was memorable, andi think it helped the game of hockey, and i am dissapointed. But Borque is a bitch ass fuck, and the Rangers suck.

goodnight

ohh and by the way, Sean Cold likes gay man ass :)

Correction: If they had Forsberg, the Avalanche would have swept.

I guess by your logic, the Devils would have lost if David Aesbicher was in Goal, instead of Roy.

Here you go people! I am a devoted Devils fan, and will be completely honest and unbiased here. I have every game on tape, and if I were to review the tapes, it would show me one thing:

The Avs were the better team. They hit better, skated better, scored better.

Marty, my favorite player, had a god awful series. His save percentage was well below 90%, not typical Brodeur. He seemed very tentative in Games 6 & 7. If we were injured, he should not have played, IMO.

Once they lost Game 6, I must admit, I thought they would bounce back. They didn't. The Avs definitely earned the prized Cup this year.

All I can say is I hope the Devs make the necessary adjustments to challenge for the Cup next year. They must now find a backup goalie, and some more firepower, since they will obviously lose Mogilny.

My two cents!
