  • House of Horrors: Previewing New Jersey Devils @ Carolina Hurricanes
    Mar 28 2026
    The New Jersey Devils have recently returned to winning form, beating strong teams on the road, but a looming matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh threatens to halt their momentum. According to Zach Berman, the Devils historically struggle against Carolina, whose aggressive Rod Brind'amour system consistently exposes New Jersey’s weaknesses, both in the regular season and playoffs. The Hurricanes seem to trigger frustration and poor performance, with the Devils unable to win a game in Raleigh since January 2023, and previous encounters marked by embarrassing losses and organizational self-doubt (06:58, 14:33). Despite the Hurricanes not being an unbeatable powerhouse—they have lost a fair number of games this season—Zach Berman emphasizes their organizational intelligence and consistency, attributes that have kept Carolina near the top of the Eastern Conference. He points out that their sustained regular-season success is enviable, even if their high-end scoring might fall short of delivering a Stanley Cup. Frustration is voiced over the Devils’ recent attempt to copy Carolina’s roster strategy, which backfired, worsening New Jersey’s performance rather than narrowing the gap (19:33). Zach Berman expresses that the psychological damage from repeated defeats against Carolina often lingers, impacting New Jersey’s performance even in subsequent games. He calls for the Devils to finally break the cycle, urging them to play with the same speed and tenacity that brought recent wins, and to give fans a reason to celebrate regardless of the team’s playoff standing. These historical struggles have created an atmosphere of pessimism, but also a challenge: prove the doubters wrong and finally defeat the “boogeyman” in Raleigh (24:41, 25:13). The episode closes with Zach Berman daring the Devils to make him “eat his words” by showing resilience and breaking their losing streak against Carolina. He promises to celebrate any such victory, hoping for a rare uplifting moment in what’s been a difficult season for the Devils and their fans (26:31, 27:14). Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Nov 30 2023

    It's already been established that Nikita Zadorov already wants out of the Calgary Flames organization, and Chris Tanev might not be far behind him. It's been rumored that many teams have inquired about the services of the Flames' alternate captain. He's in the final year of his contract and the New Jersey Devils need more defensive depth. Dougie Hamilton might miss the next game due to an upper-body injury, and Samuel Laberge has been called up from Utica.
