If Elias is healthy he should 100% be signed. He is still a very good 3rd line winger.
-
Versteeg is an option again and I would love for NJ to sign him to protect Zacha as a 3rd line center.
Hall-Henrique-Bennett
Cammalerri-Zajac-Palmieri
Boucher-Zacha-Versteeg
JJ/Kalinin-Fiddler-DSP -
Too add he and Nick Lappin for free would be simple amazing. Nick Lappin on a much much weaker team had 4.55 shots per game. Vesey had 4.27 shots per game. Both those are elite NCAA numbers which should carry over. Plus they play together on a line in the Foxboro league.
PS: Lappin put up 3.26 shots per game in the AHL against mainly the toughest competition late in the year.
-
I think he signed with NJ. I just have a feeling the direction NJ is going, a roster spot, family ties and 3:30 drive to Boston makes it appealing.
-
Most likely he is a strong offensive 3rd line winger, that seems to be the route most UFA college kids run.

Anyone know if our 2 new Russian draft picks are competing for spot on Russian team for Hlinka tournament? Where is Hlinka tournament being held this year?
Hlinka is for under 18.

Watch #11 in this game. At first watching highlights, i wasn't overly impressed. Watching the first period, this kid has some serious skill. At 6`3 he is a very good skater, looks to have quick hands and was used on the PP. His skating and fore check led to the first goal. His positioning needs some work, like most Russians.

Am I way too high on Blandisi or are you way too low on Blandisi?
You are too high on him until he develops substance to his game. his passing, skating and hands are top 6 already.

I don't see Bennett on the first line. Palmier should be the RW on the first line. I would love to see Hudler on the 2nd line at RW.
1st and 2nd lines play the exact same 5 on 5 minutes. Bennett won't play on the PP or PK so playing a lot of minutes 5 on 5 (his strength) is in the best interest of the team.

NJ has gone from a team with many holes up front to a team very deep on the wings. There are going to be a lot of camp battles with a lot of those good players being forced to play in the AHL.
Locks: Taylor Hall, Adam Henrique, Kyle Palmieri, Mike Cammalerri, Travis Zajac, Beau Bennett, Jacob Josefson, Vernon Fiddler, Devante Smith-Pelly
Safe: Reid Boucher, Sergei Kalinen
Battle: Joseph Blandisi, Pavel Zacha, John Quenneville, Miles Wood, Nick Lappin, Luke Gazdic
I believe Gazdic will hold one of the extra spots, for a goon he actually does well possession wise relative top his team. He just had a terrible PDO. I believe Miles Wood will definately make his way on the Devils unless Shero veto's Hynes. Wood can be an elite 4th liner to start and work his way up the lineup. Speed kills and he fits the framework of this team. I believe Zacha will start in Albany and take over for Josefson if he fails to produce. I love Lappin and think his window is smaller than others but he will have to wait and force his way on the team.
Taylor Hall - Adam Henrique - Beau Bennett
Mike Cammalerri - Travis Zajac - Kyle Palmieri
Reid Boucher - Jacob Josefson/Pavel Zacha - Devante Smith-Pelly
Sergei Kalinen - Vernon Fiddler - Miles Wood
Luke Gazdic,
Shots per 60:
Hall - 10.29
Cammalerri - 2.45
Bennett - 7.96
Smith-Pelly - 7.34
Boucher - 6.67
Palmeri - 6.59
Fiddler 6.47
Cammalerri - 6.28
Gazdic - 6.02
Henrique - 5.77
Josefson - 5.47
Zajac - 4.84
Kalinen - 4.12
NJ should score a lot more

Lets hope NJ signs Austin Cangelosi, he has scored at every level and Id expect him to atleast he an AHL scorer.
-
I feel the following will be lines in camp:
Hall-Henrique-Bennett
Cammalerri-Zajac-Palmieri
Elias-Zacha-Boucher
Kalinen-Josefson-Smith-Pelly
-
Would love to see Hall-McLeod-Bennett in preseason for a game. Fastest devils line ever.

We did have threads for all the picks last year - I think in the future if I remember I'll make a thread for the 1st round pick, the 2nd round pick, and then all the rest.
Why have you concluded that Bratt only got 4th line ice time? I know he was way down on his team in scoring, but I'm not sure why you think this.
I found their team stats which has +- for and against for every player on the team. The top two lines were very obvious and I took a guess that the next LW was higher on the depth charts based on 8 or 9 more events over the course of the season. I'll see if I can dig it up.

I am really liking this pick by the Devils, I'm not sure why we don't have threads for all the players like HFBOARDS.

This kid had numbers Draft -1 similar to Dmytro Timashov (Timashov was an Oct bday), Jonathan Dahlen (Dec birthday), Alex Nylander, Jakub Vrana and Lucas Wallmark. So what about his draft year. Playing 4th line minutes he put up 8 goals and 9 assists in 48 games. Dahlen put up 15 goals 14 assists in 51 games in the same league with essentially an extra year of development.
He maybe soft, he maybe poor defensively but he is a 17 year old Swedish kid who obviously has speed, skill and a shot.

Just now, SterioDesign said:
so you see him top 6 over DSP or Palmieri?
Well between the 1st and 2nd line, where one slots is all chemistry. Both play roughly the same amount of minutes 5 on 5. I would most definitely play him ahead of DSP.

Kenny Daneyko didnt' know where NJ was for pete's sake!
Too be fair, Ken Daneyko wasn't the smartest or high skilled player. McLeod is a center, you sort of want those guys to be intelligent.
-
While always being injured he still is a 1.28 P/60 player. i think he fits in well with Henrique and Cammalleri. He generally decent at shots/60 as well.

Some otherwise smart and successful athletes are like that. Jeff Kent admitted to not knowing or caring about MLB growing up. Ryan Tannehill didn't know what division the Dolphins played in until training camp, but he's very smart.
i know there are some exceptions to the rule but he also didn't interview well at all.
-
He doesn't seem all that intelligent in how he speaks. He knew absolutely nothing about the Devils which concerns me for a person looking to play in the NHL, you would think he could name someone other than Brodeur.

2016 Draft
in Hell
I want Keller, if he ends up a similar type prospect to Marner it will be an exciting future.

Bennett, when fully healthy, fit in the top 6 of a strong Stanley Cup contender. Bennett, if healthy, will play in the top 6 and perform well.
