I want no part of Hyman as a Devils fan. I respect the absolute heck out of him as a player and I think the Leafs should do whatever they can to re-sign him but I don't see a fit in NJ. He's been a 40pt guy most of his career which is solid for a middle 6 role. But he also plays with elite players in a perfect complimentary role in TOR. NJ needs a top line winger and Hyman isn't that and as others have said he's more likely to trend down than up. Plenty of homegrown guys in NJ who can play a good middle 6 role and hopefully can become a Zach Hyman type of player as they continue to develop. I'll stick with some combo of Wood, Zacha, Kuokkanen, Sharangovich, Foote, Mercer, Thompson, Bastian, Boqvist, etc. and see who pans out. Save the cap space for signing/trading for an elite top line winger or top pairing defenseman.
