For years, NHL Network has used August as their time to rank the players in this league based on position. Oftentimes, the Devils players are underrated. We have seen years where players are ranked earlier than expected, like when they put Jack Hughes in the top 20 centers prior to his true breakout in 2022-23.
One player who never got the proper recognition is Jesper Bratt. The New Jersey Devils winger has been close to a point-per-game winger for a few years now, and he repeated that last season with 88 points in 81 games.
