Devils RTG

Équipe: 2021-22 Devils du New Jersey

Date de création initiale: 21 avr. 2020

Publié: 25 avr. 2020

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Personal takes:
The 2021/2022 roster obviously doesn’t look very strong and is probably a lottery/bubble team again. By then players like Hischier, Hughes, Bratt, Boqvist, Smith and Blackwood are the young core of the franchise, have matured and taken over the team. UFA signings are all short term deals so the cap isn’t damaged by the time all those ELC’s run out and to make sure there are enough roster spots for our prospects to play and develop. With all those 1st round picks the farm system has gotten a ton of true impact talent and should emerge as one of the very best. Sure, if we make it this way we’re probably looking at two more years of loosing and fighting for top lottery spots again but imo we’re already so deep in this mess that we now should look to make it the proper way and not damage ourselves for the time when we can’t need it! This ACGM is obviously relying on a lot of our prospects to develop…


19/20 season:
The NHL decides that they can't play and quit the season.
Decisions made regarding conditional draft picks that affect the Devils: Devils don't get a pick from Carolina (Sami Vatanen) / Devils get a 2021 5th from Buffalo (Wayne Simmonds) / Vancouver “misses“ the playoffs therefore the Devils receive a 2021 unconditional 1st instead (Blake Coleman) / Arizona doesn't win any of the 3 lotteries in 2020 so the Devils get their 2020 1st round selection (Taylor Hall).
ELC slides (now last until 2023 instead): Ty Smith / Kevin Bahl / Nikita Okhotyuk / Nolan Foote
