New Jersey Devils Pipeline

The New Jersey Devils pipeline is currently ranked 21st by Puck Pipeline. New Jersey has seems to be officially turning the corner, and entering juggarnaut status. Now, this assessment may be premature, as the hype may end-up superseding that actual product of play, but New Jersey is poising to become the paragon squad of the Metropolitan division. The combination of Luke Hughes and Simon Nemec on the back-end, surrounded by pieces like Seamus Casey and eventually Anton Silayev, this D-core is shaping up to be elite. The forward core is already loaded with young professionals and veteran talent. New Jerseys woes in net throughout the 2023-24 should be halted indefinitely with the addition of Jacob Markstrom, and the pipeline addition of Mikhail Yegorov, who had his own delegation of fandom throughout his draft season.
