The good news is that preseason games ultimately don't count for much. The bad news is that the performances within the games absolutely do. They help the coaches determine who belongs and who doesn't. It's a chance to see their tactics work or not. It's an opportunity for the fans to get a taste of what they may expect. With all of the changes made by the Devils in this offseason from the highest non-owner position in management down to the roster turnover, tonight's game was similar to some efforts from last season. The Devils lost to the Boston Bruins 0-2 in Providence, Rhode Island; and the shutout loss doesn't fully cover how poor the performance looked.
