I'm a habs fan but i love watching the Devils. Such a talented team. What a goal by Luke Hughes. Good luck devils fans!

[@Devilsfan-pd8ov]

Thanks I wish we had at least league average goaltending

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

My family in Montreal love their Habs as well lol shame we haven’t played the Canadiens in the playoffs since 1997 when Brodeur scored that empty net goal 🥅 at the end of the game

[@manuelkeats296]

Mercer is outstanding when he's on his game.

[@amitbhardwaj7516]

Yeah, for sure!

[@knoxynyr87]

That Hughes goal was a beauty

[@jeffreyseed7437]

Great to see Timo back in the game again! 4 goals in his last 3 games! I was concerned with how he was playing before but it takes time to adjust to a team I suppose. Great comeback, Devils!

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

You’re right it’s his first full year with us and he’s notoriously a slow starter and finishes strong at the end! The guy should be a 55 goal scorer if he wasn’t so inconsistent

[@jeffreyseed7437]

@@QueensNewYorkguy There was also the fact that we was injured and he came back probably a little sooner than he should've.

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

@@jeffreyseed7437 thanks for pointing that out, I didn’t realize he came might’ve came back too soon! That’s all on Lindy

[@jeffreyseed7437]

@@QueensNewYorkguy No problem

[@ResMartian01]

I'm a devils fan and SUPER happy they got the win tonight. But as a Sacred Heart alum, it makes me happy to see Justin Danforth really showing up tonight for Columbus. He was all over that game tonight!

[@safejewel2072]

7:35 this is the moment that Luke Hughes remembered who he was playing against

[@TRDTalk]

Timo time is back

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

Give Timo more quality shots a game like the sharks give Zetterland and he will perform better.

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

I would be thrilled to see Timo score at least a point a game though.

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

Timo Meier fan for life. I would be thrilled for Timo and the Devils if they win the cup.

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

Timon has to show up in the playoffs though! He’s got Jack Hughes and Nico and Haula yet he still started slow for another year in a row! When he’s good he’s great but when he’s bad he stinks

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

@@QueensNewYorkguy The Devil's do not even use Timo for scoring like the sharks did or like how the sharks use Zetterland. On the Devil's Timo is like the 4th or 5th option to shoot the puck? Clearly even if the Devils go to choose in order who would shoot the puck Timo would be way lower on the list than his contract would imply. The sharks call offensive plays just so Zetterland will shoot it.

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants good point and i totally agree with you on that! But when you have Jack Hughes, Jesper Bratt, Tyler Toffoli on your team who are all great goal scorers then you can understand why Meier falls so low in the shooting options! That’s why I want him to get down low more and eat up those dirty goals like Mercer does consistently

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

@@QueensNewYorkguy Sure I get that but you could give those 3 names 25% shots and give them to Timo and he should produce more but I get why the devils do not obviously. If Zetterland was still there he would be getting less shots too. I like Mercer as a good cheap player. Good Luck

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants thanks for your well wishes and good luck to you and your team as well! But Zetterlund was a good little piece to our team and I began liking him and how much he was contributing but I forgot all about him once Meier arrived! Zetterlund was never going to give us 40 goals like Meier can and will this year but i gotta give him credit he played a huge part in why we lost to the Sharks a few games ago smh we’re inconsistent this year mainly cause of injuries to Hischier Hughes and now Hamilton and we’re cleaning that up and on a bit of a roll lately! Edmonton lost to the Sharks so I’m not too upset we lost to them! The Sharks look like a formidable team now that they made some changes

[@mephotography9829]

Lukey boy with the wowzers 👍

[@amitbhardwaj7516]

Another come-from-behind win for NJ, thanks to a very late game tying spectacular goal from Luke Hughes and then an OT winning break away goal from Meier!

[@advanceromance2656]

Shades of Bobby Orr. Columbus bench like, "WTF was that?"

[@raphaeldefabritiis3206]

Enfin Timo commence a marquer .. salutations a la 🇨🇭 team 👍

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

Glad you’re a knowledgeable fan of hockey cause I seem to have to remind people that Timo is very inconsistent! He should be a 50 goal scorer

[@user-bu2zs2xl9n]

молодцы дьяволята!прекрасная игра,так держать!

[@vel4965]

Вот это матч. вот это игра. Жаль Мерзликина, всю игру тащил нормально. Мне вообще показалось, что его команда только на вратаря в защите и надеется.дьяволов с победой, побеждает сильнейший

[@jacobepicness8558]

LETS GO DEVILS!

[@jacqueslecours9756]

What the play for N.J. , WoW !

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

Luke Hughes just sent a message to the whole NHL with that sick goal 🥅 i swore that was Scott Niedermayer with all that speed flying through everyone on the opposing team! 😂

[@timleahy4279]

Thought the same.

[@hugdealer1111]

me too lol

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

I see why their parents said in a documentary that Luke was going to end up being the best out of all of them! The way he sees the game better than everyone on the ice, including Jack is extraordinary

[@Nicovertime]

Good win ❤

[@kasparslukass6794]

All defender lines needs to be changed for Jackets😢

[@oyeahjustcomenting]

Wtf does Luke get the confidence to do that 😂😂😂

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

Mom 👩🏻 she was great offensively as a hockey player

[@user-nw9fe9sq3l]

Гол пропустили дурацкий. Вместо того чтоб самому забивать из выгодной позиции, пинжак подарил шайбу чёрту на ровном месте.

[@user-xf8bj8rs9c]

Наших вроде не было когда такой косяк случился, кроме вратаря...

[@VenintheGOAT]

I love the style of your editing! ❤😁 Sloppy game by the devils, just barely clutched at the end. Things need to change fast if the devils want to be contenders.

[@armiddle29]

got us in the first half

[@michaelbrown7260]

Terrible loss for Columbus…

[@user-cy1qu3tl5l]

Защита никакая у CBJ...😖

[@oresteez]

Hey Johnny Hockey, how's Columbus working out for ya? lol

[@Axl262]

Nice play 👍

[@SuzIntru]

Holy match

[@johnshields6852]

Hughes does a bobby orr for a beauty.

[@alanconnelly3921]

Nice to win at home

[@ayayronburgundy608]

Luke is faster then his brothers clearly with the height and long stride kid has some wheels 🛞

[@QueensNewYorkguy]

Nemec is asking everyone: Dougie who??? With his solid gameplay offensively and defensively! When 20 plus goals at the blue line and almost 80 points overall and top 5 slap shot and top 5 d man power play specialist, multiple GWG scorer Hamilton comes back we’ll be at our best and almost unbeatable!!

[@timjansen7694]

I follow the Blue Jackets. I used to be a fan but I gave up on them a few years ago. Follow them because they are on TV locally. Having said that, the Jackets played well in this game, considering it is the Blue Jackets and not the Rangers or the Bruins.

[@BAG-es6qy]

Nabaga Merzlikins, pūst un pūst.... 😢😢

[@genos1345]

žēl redzēt šādu zaudējumu, Elvis ļoti labi nostavēja

[@oldfartjohnson6354]

That was interesting.Great that the DEVILS squeezed out the win after it looked like it was all over.

[@MicoV94]

Timo Meier and the New Jersey Devils wins in overtime against Zach Werenski and the Columbus Blue Jackets in their massive Metropolitan Division rivals 🏒🔴⚫⚪😈 New Jersey Devils went up to 18-13-2, while the Columbus Blue Jackets fall to 11-18-7

[@magmajic]

Ужасная срезка Джонсона.Мерзликина жаль,неплохо получалось у него в этот вечер.

[@user-nu4qk7qh7v]

Коламбус! Что с тобой не так?

[@bpoi985]

Hughes like Neids in the playoffs

[@neeper666]

Jacket's need a coach

devils gotta be the most fun team to watch when they play their best

Pppppsssshhhhhhh-ed bass master - wooooooo

Это полный ппц

[@Le-0N91]

Воронков тупой, мимо него майер гонит ,а он его просто погладил! должен был блокировать!Да, и не только Воронков,мимо всех прокатил Тимо как на раскатке!

[@user-xf8bj8rs9c]

Ничего, прочтёт комментарий исправится 😊

[@user-fv7ys9wu2n]

Я тобой полностью согласен, воронков с его физухой кстати как и проворов играют очень мягко, когда надо жёстко. Я думал хьюза просто остановят силовым там 1,5мин оставалось. Можно было и остановить силовым. Я не знаю че они тупили,играют как потерявшиеся, из наших чинахов и мирошниченко заметны.

[@Ted1775]

Timo Meier is back on a hot streak. Devils on a 2 game heater!🔥🏒 Somehow Fitzgerald has to retool the defense and fix this goalie situation. Loving this secondary scoring. Luke has some serious acceleration. Imagine this team will be on fire again once Jack gets going.
