New Jersey Devils: Beau Bennett Is Not Another Kyle Palmieri

It has been exactly one year since the trade that sent Kyle Palmieri from the Anaheim Ducks to the New Jersey Devils became official. In that time, we’ve seen Palmieri enjoy monumental success in his one season wearing a Devils uniform. Palmieri set new career highs in goals (30) and points (57) by wide margins last season. As Devils fans may remember, Palmieri was acquired on the cheap, costing only a second round pick in last year’s draft (one of two – they used the other on G Mackenzie Blackwood), and a third round pick in this year’s draft (one of three – they used the other two on RW Joseph Anderson and C Brandon Gignac).
