This New Jersey Devils offseason gave us much excitement, energy, and new faces to the franchise that created anticipation for the upcoming season the likes we’ve never seen before. October 4th could not get here fast enough because Devils fans were so excited to see what this new team could do. Then opening night finally came and it started out like it was a dream, the Devils went up 4-0.
Then, it was as if this was meant to be a cruel joke and the hockey God’s slapped us with a dose of reality. That reality being when you put together a team with a bunch of new guys on it, it isn’t supposed to come easy and there are going to be some real struggles when it gets started.
