Kyle Palmieri is enjoying the best season of his career as he gets ready to play against his first NHL team on the road for the first time.
Palmieri will return to face the Anaheim Ducks on Monday night as his New Jersey Devils seek to sweep a three-game West Coast trip.
The winger was drafted in the first round by the Ducks in 2009. His career-best point total with Anaheim came in 2013-14 when he had 31, as he had some trouble establishing himself on a star-studded team that boasts Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry.
