When the Vegas Golden Knights came into the league, the New Jersey Devils thought their expansion draft would actually help. Fans hoped the Knights would take a Mike Cammalleri off their hands. They ended up taking Jon Merrill, which was a blessing in disguise. The Devils came out of the expansion draft in alright shape.
The next expansion draft might not go so well. The New Jersey Devils have finally turned a corner. After acquiring P.K. Subban, Jack Hughes and Nikita Gusev this offseason, this Devils team looks like one that can contend now and in the future.
