Zajac interviewed during the 2nd intermission. Basically said that the line is gelling well together. Not going to dwell on the awful 3rd period they played the other night against the Rangers, and are going to go out and play Devils (Sioux) hockey! :huh: That line receiving tons of accolades from the announcers during intermission. Zajac and Parise playing years beyond their actual experience level.

Earlier in the game, announcer said that he spoke with Langenbrunner, and Jamie said that he finds himself having to skate as hard as he can to keep up with Parise and Zajac, or they'll leave him behind. Announcers said that Zajac and Parise are coming off the ice even in practice with huge smiles on their face because they simply love playing this game.

Have to say, I love watching these guys play this game!

thanks, unfortuantly i was working and couldn't listen. I love it when they interview them. I have an interview with Travis on tape from the Carolina game because I was going to miss most of it. I watched the interview about 4 times. ;):D

From the globeandmail.com:

Devils go to school to find talent

Brodeur says times have changed when looking at players from U.S. colleges

Devils general manager Lou Lamoriello has stockpiled a roster of players either born in the United States or who were developed in the U.S. college system. New Jersey has an National Hockey League-high 14 U.S.-born players on its roster and 11 were U.S. college products.

"Times have changed," Brodeur said. "The U.S. is a great place to play hockey and the [college ranks]are producing a lot of good, young players.

"I think you have to look at the history of our team where some of our scouts and GM come from. U.S. colleges are important to them and that's where they look for their players."

But just because of all the U.S. college-educated players, don't expect the conversations to be any more scholarly than in your average NHL dressing room.

"Not many of us finished four years," said rookie centre Travis Zajac, who left University of North Dakota after his sophomore season. "Still, this is a close-knit team."

This is off the Lowell Devils' website this morning. Looks like Jordan could see a lot more playing time. :silly:

(tried to get the stats more readable, but they wouldn't translate from the "typing page" to the "preview page" - sorry)
