Devils Possible 2017-18

Hey guys I wanted to make a team for the 2017-18 Devils. This scenario is if Kovalchuk does in fact come back and Shero selects Nolan Patrick with the first overall pick. Please let me know what you think!

I like both Nolan Patrick and Nico Hischier for this team. They both show alot of potential. There is downside with Patrick as he have a history of injuries, but he does he chemistry with Devils prospect John Quenneville from playing together for the Brandon Wheat Kings. We just have to be sure that we pick the best one, as the Flyers will most likely take the other and if we mess that up it will haunt us for years.

I have hears rumors that Kovalchuk would have to make the same amount on his contract as previous years, but since there is no confirmation to these I'll say I could see them signing Kovy for slightly less. Probably around 6 mill if possible.

There is no chance in hell we get Kevin Shattenkirk on this team for 5.25 million for 5 years. This is the contract where he's either going to join his childhood team (our hated rivals) or get paid. If we do get him, to be honest the minimum is 7 million but he's probably going to get more.

Either way I'm so ******* hyped that they won this pick. LGD
