The Song for Tonight: OK, so Slayer did not get received all that well. That’s fine. Let me change it up. One of the songs I played a lot back in 2012 is one of my favorite August Burns Red songs from their classic album Constellations. This is “Meddler.” Feed the flame. Strengthen ourselves. Accept we cannot make time stand still. Stop. Listen. Learn. And then there’s this guitar outro.

The Rules: The rules remain the rules even as the Devils are in the playoffs. Please keep your comments clean, legal (read: no streams, no links to streams, no asking for streams, no streams, no streams), and all about the game itself. Other scores are OK, but let’s make sure the comments here are primarily about the Devils and this game. Also, let’s respect each other, there’s no need for drama or unwelcome nature of any sort. This is a game thread, let’s focus on the game. Play nice with each other or you will not play at all. Thank you for reading. Go Devils!
