The New Jersey Devils won the number one overall pick in this year’s NHL Draft in a lottery shocker. This stroke of luck should keep the pick in New Jersey, and no trade should be made.
New Jersey Devils general manager Ray Shero will definitely work the trade market this offseason. With a ton of cap space and, possibly even more important, space to take on a player to protect, the Devils could go into this offseason in a position of power.
The team has a ton of assets that could turn into players that help the team now.
