We’re closing in on the 2021 NHL Draft. The New Jersey Devils own the fourth and 29th overall selections in this year’s draft, another chance for the organization to add an impactful player to the system.

If the Devils don’t trade down/out of the top-five to add a more significant veteran piece.
But assuming the Devils stay put at No.
