  4. I hope two first round picks end up feeling worth this trade. Nemec sounds good, but the other guy seems like a throw-in. The #Flames already have too many wingers that couldn't cut it on the #Devils.

  6. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    FAUSTUS: No, Faustus, curse thyself, curse Lucifer,
       That hath deprived thee of the joys of heaven.
          (The clock striketh twelve.)
       O, it strikes, it strikes! Now, body, turn to air,
       Or Lucifer will bear thee quick to hell.
          (Thunder and lightning.)
       O soul, be changed into little water drops,
       And fall into the ocean, ne’er be found!
       My God, my God, look not so fierce on me!
          (Enter Devils.)
       Adders, and serpents, let me breathe a while!
       Ugly hell, gape not. Come not Lucifer!
       I’ll burn my books! Ah, Mephistophilis!
          (Exeunt Devils with Faustus.)

    Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
    The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, Act 5, sc. 2 (sc. 19), l. 1498ff (1594; 1604 “A” text)

  11. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    FAUSTUS: Faustus, begin thine incantations
       And try if devils will obey thy hest,
       Seeing thou hast prayed and sacrificed to them.
       Within this circle is Jehovah’s name,
       Forward, and backward, anagrammatised:
       Th’abbreviated names of holy saints,
       Figures of every adjunct to the heavens,
       And characters of signs, and erring stars,
       By which the spirits are enforced to rise.
       Then fear not, Faustus, to be resolute
       And try the utmost magic can perform.
     
    [Thunder]
     
    Sint mihi Dei Acherontis propitii! Valeat numen triplex Jehovae! Ignei aerii, aquatani spiritus, salvete! Orientis princeps Beelzebub, inferni ardentis monarcha, et Demigorgon, propitiamus vos, ut appareat, et surgat Mephistophilis Dragon, quod tumeraris; per Jehovam, gehennam, et consecratam aquam quam nunc spargo; signumque crucis quod nunc facio, et per vota nostra, ipse nunc surgat nobis dicatus Mephistophilis!

  12. #NJDevils are now amping up the physicality.

    #CBJ Fantilli and #Devils Siegenthaler are fighting at 3:58 of the second. Fantilli, who doesn't typically fight, handled himself quite well.

    #NJDevils Brown went after #CBJ Werenski, which is why Fantilli stepped in.

  13. A quotation from C. S. Lewis

    There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight.

    C. S. Lewis (1898-1963) English writer, literary scholar, lay theologian [Clive Staples Lewis]
    The Screwtape Letters, Preface (1942 ed.)
