We're now about three weeks into the new SB Nation United platform. Of course, it would be sweet if there was an actual New Jersey Devils season to write about with this new platform, but that's clearly out of our hands and instead in those of the idiotic powers that be. Enough about them as the lovely and talented tech team has made a number of fixes and changes to make your SBN-U experience better.
