Not me,
There are way better teams than NJ. Im not going to list them all but my money is on Anaheim. They've got it all, the best goalie in the NHL this season (giguere is rated as the top goalie this season). They have the best defense in the league, and their forwards are scoring like crazy. Now that NJ has Gomez back their offense will pick up, but they are lacking at defense. NJ will prolly make a small run in the playoffs, but I'm not expecting them to make it to the finals.

New Jersey Devils all the (bleep) way.. Marty Brodeur is insane and elias is picking things up.. they will not be the team with 115 pts at the end of the year.. they never are... but do not count us out because with marty the man brodeur in net, anything can happen and for the Rags fans.. you guys have two more games than the Devils so sthu

LET"S GO DEVILS!!! I went to a game at CAA this year, two hour drive each way, but it was awesome! Anyway, with the best goalie in net and a defense that includes Elias, Gomez, and Gionta, how can you fail? They have the best defense in the league. They have a great team!
BTW:
A) Anaheim is in a different conference, so they would only play them in the finals, if Anaheim got there.
B)It's December, typical Rags fans proud to lead the division, remember last year when the Devils were 20+ points back and game back to take the division the last game after being down 3-0? Remember that sweep in the playoffs too? LOL.
C)They played two more games than the Devils.
D)The Devils have the top rated defense, not Anaheim!

hard to say. got anahiem buffalo sanjose and atlanta in the way. the lines i noticed are pretty stupid. lou lamorello was a better coach then this guy. he would mostly always have gionta and elias on the same line. elias seeting him up and gionta would almost never make a mistake. now look at them. gionta has like 12 goals. gomez WAS injured and elias has 25 points. hes gotten wake and realize what hes doing. i think the lines should be gomez elias and gionta then parise madden and langenbrunner then zajac brylin bicek. the rest well combine a line who ever they are
if elias keeps up this steak they'll do just fine. brodeur will also have to step up his game as he has saved some of the hardest shots and let in the most garbagey goals ever. last uear when elias came back then eon 9 straight then at the end of the year they won 11 straight and the first 4 playoff games in a row. in those 15 games i think gionta had 9 goals gomez had 12 assist and elias had i think 25/26 points. (about 10 goals

I think the Devils could go all the way this year. Did you see their televised performance against Buffalo Tuesday night? They lost 3-2 but NJ scored their two goals inside of a minute! Wow!

In my opinion, theres some better teams then the New Jersey Devils in the National Hockey League but I think they have a chance to make the playoffs. When you make the playoffs everyone has a chance to make it to the finals. But with Montreal, Buffalo, Anaheim, Atlanta and also San Jose.. those teams have a better chance to win but we'll see!!!

Brodeur is the heart and soul of this team. They need to be more productive offensively in order to get to the finals.

YES OF COURSE!! as long as brodeur stays good, elias gets better, and their defense stays strong they can definitely make it
