Alex Holtz and Dawson Mercer Looked Great Last Night; So They’re NHL Ready, Right? Well...
Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports The New Jersey Devils pair of promising draft choices from 2020 have both looked very good in recent outings. Today, however, we look at why starting them in the NHL this season might not be the best bet. One preseason game down for our New Jersey Devils, and the immediate returns are extremely positive. The established youngsters who played last night (Yegor Sharangovich, Nico Hischier and Jack Hughes) all did well and contributed on the scoresheet. Damon Severson did his part contributing offensively as well, and his pairing with Jonas...

Jesper Bratt Is a Core Piece of the New Jersey Devils Next Championship Team
Photo by Bruce Bennett/ While Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier are always mentioned as key pieces of the future for the Devils, and more recently Ty Smith has been added to that group by some, Jesper Bratt is often left out of that group.

The 2021-22 New Jersey Devils are Expected to be Bigger - So What?
Jack Hughes is not big, but he is The Big Deal. Skill over size every day of the week and twice on Sunday. | Photo by Chase Agnello-Dean/NHLI via The 2021-22 New Jersey Devils are taller and heavier than last season’s team by way of the team average. They will be a bigger team. Does that matter? I argue: No, not really. One of the laments from last season’s failed campaign by the New Jersey Devils was a lack of size. A lack of nastiness.
