Devils Social Media Trolls Red Wings

It wasn’t enough for the New Jersey Devils to beat the Detroit Red Wings. Then they had to pour salt in the wounds.

Or, to be more precise, pour out a gravy boat full of losses.

The Devils social media team on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, were ramping up the mocking memes following Friday’s 5-4 road victory over the Wings at Little Caesars Arena.

First, they took aim at the club’s recent gravy boat Zamboni promotion, which has proven to be a big hit with the Red Wings fanbase.

On the official New Jersey Devils site on X, they posted the video of the Zamboni gravy boat pouring out a heaping pile of Ls.

“It’s aLL gravy, baby,” read the post.

They even went as far as to pin the post, so it’s the first thing you see when you open the Devils feed.

As of late Friday evening, the post had been shared 24,300 times. It had over 900 likes and in excess of 140 reposts.

Red Wings Rasmussen Also Mocked

When Detroit beat New Jersey 5-3 at LCA on October 19, a photo of Red Wings forward Michael Rasmussen staring down and screaming at a fallen Jack Hughes following Rasmussen’s game-clinching empty-net goal was turned into a popular meme by Detroit fans.

Following Friday’s beating, the Devils social media team was also turning this one around. In their version, Rasmussen is seen screaming down angrily at a giant white L.

That Detroit win over New Jersey was extending a Red Wings win streak to a season-high three games. The Wings were also looking to extend a win streak to three games on Friday. In this instance, the Devils were thwarting those hopes.

And in case you didn’t notice, the scorer of the game-winning goal was none other than Jack Hughes.
