Default nj devils CANT beat islanders/rangers?

Its getting really frustrating already! I dont understand how come we beat Philly and Pittsburgh (who happen to be higher in the standings) and in my opinion better teams, yet we cant beat the two lower teams in our division. If we even played average hockey and came away with at least 3 wins between both the rangers and islanders, thats less points for them and another 6 for us. But we choose to stink it up royally.

What really irritates me is that we seem to have 4 or 5 game win streaks and its always the rangers and/or islanders ending those streaks!! Seriously the way we played last night in the third period when we were obviously hungry for a goal is the way we NEED to play for a full 60 minutes of a game! We are definitley better then the way we played last night.

Ok enough of my ranting hopefully we get back on track friday against Florida.

P.S - can we get rid of johnny oduya!!

Because this makes it so much funnier when we win the cup that their fans will be disgusted with how they owned us in the regular season yet we spank them in the playoffs.

i know i needed to let my frustration out. I forgot to mention we also took stupid penalties and i guess without madden and pando it was a bit tougher on some of our guys. Hopefully we get them back soon and start another long winning streak!

It's a conspiracy between the NHL and Hummer because they want the Devils to lose the Metro Ice Challenge.
