It was a tough year for Nico Hischier of the New Jersey Devils. Last season was canceled early and the Devils weren’t invited to the “return to play” bubble for a chance to make the playoffs. Then, he injured himself while training for the 2020-21 season in Switzerland which caused him to miss a good chunk of the year.
