The New Jersey Devils had a disastrous 2021 season. They fell victim to a serious COVID-19 outbreak and, while they did get off to a hot start, they ended the season as one of the worst teams in the league.
However, after the trade deadline, the Devils became the youngest team in the NHL. Many players made their NHL debuts this season and it’s hard to criticize such a youthful team.
If anything, Devils fans should like what they’ve seen from the youngsters. Overall, they’ve been impressive.
The Devils aren’t done, though. They have many promising prospects in their system, several of whom will have the opportunity to make their NHL debuts within the next few seasons.
