What a season it was from the New Jersey Devils. This team fought from day one, and held onto a playoff spot every single game for an 82 game season. Taylor Hall was an MVP candidate, and is the favorite to win the award. Nico Hischier, Blake Coleman and Will Butcher became fan favorites in their rookie season. It was mostly great to be a Devils fan this season.
All these positive storylines swept one negative under the rug. We expected a lot more from Pavel Zacha this season, and he did not deliver.
