During the draft, the New Jersey Devils will be looking for any players that can help their team goal totals in the future. Could offense-first defenseman Victor Mete be of interest?
The New Jersey Devils will officially start a new era of drafting on June 24th, as this will be the first draft in over three decades where at least one of David Conte and Lou Lamoriello are not involved. Due to this fact, it's hard to know exactly what is going through General Manager Ray Shero's mind in terms of his draft strategy. He might be looking for forwards, he might be looking to make some trades, and he also could be looking for some defenders; Victor Mete is an offensive minded player who fits into the last of those three categories and could be someone the Devils look at in the early/mid rounds of the draft.
