How the government's punishing of the exposure of official wrongdoing can linger for years
Sometimes it's hard to forget about a goaltender's night. A few big saves but a couple of goals, and there are bigger problems to worry about.
John Tortorella stood out again at a playoff news conference. Only this time it was because of his feistiness toward the New Jersey Devils and not for his brevity and contentiousness with the media.
Jaromir Jagr had a goal and an assist and the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Detroit Red Wings 3-1 in a preseason game Friday night.
The Peter DeBoer era with the New Jersey Devils is officially only three practices old. But so far, the returning Devils like what they see in their new coach.
If things weren't bad enough, the struggling New Jersey Devils are going to be without high-scoring left wing Zach Parise for an undisclosed amount of time.
New Jersey Devils right wing Brian Rolston has had surgery to repair a sports hernia.
"Coach told me I'm playing, and I'm very ready to go," Josefson said. "It feels great. My body feels great. It may be a little tough stepping in, but I'm a little more excited than anything. I've been getting better every day and I felt I could play in this series. It's just a matter of when. I just hope I do well."
"It's only been a couple of days, but so far, I like it," second-year forward Jacob Josefson said. "I like the high-tempo practices. I like the fast pace. It makes you feel like you've been on the ice for a long time, but you really haven't. Obviously, he has a gameplan that he believes in and it's up to us players to get into it."
