Erik Foley: 2015 NHL Draft Prospect Profile

As much attention will be paid to what the New Jersey Devils do with their first round and two second round draft picks in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, the rest of it cannot be ignored.  Yes, the likelihood of finding a NHL player - never mind a very good one to become a part of the team's core - is reduced beyond the second round.  However, being able to identify future NHL players in the third round and beyond turns good drafts great, salvages otherwise drafts, and may hasten re-builds.  It is for those reasons why our annual series of prospect profiles go beyond the top two rounds.
