The New Jersey Devils took two high-upside American prospects with their first two picks of the 2025 NHL Draft. Neither player has shown any of that upside, and they were both left off the consideration for Team USA at the World Junior Championship.
It’s that time of the year again. Coming out of the Christmas break, the best prospects in the world descend upon one destination to play some hockey. It’s the World Junior Championships.
This is a special year, as it’s the 50th such tournament putting the best hockey players under the age of 20.
