Is the 2018-19 New Jersey Devils Season Already Lost?

Now 44 games into the 2018-19 season, our New Jersey Devils have so far collected only 41 points, which at just a simple glance certainly isn’t good enough for a playoff team. The team has been hurt by a variety of factors this season, mainly poor goaltending, poor defense, injuries and an inconsistent power play. Some of these issues are improving: the situation in net is seemingly being stabilized by MacKenzie Blackwood, which is in turn masking some of the defensive issues. Also, the injures are starting to lessen and the Devils are inching closer to having a complete team once again.
