The New Jersey Devils are in near-turmoil right now. They’re on a league-worst six-game losing streak and are just three points ahead of the last-place New York Islanders, who have four games in hand.
There’s no excuse for a team with as much talent as the Devils to be performing as poorly as they are, indicating that head coach Lindy Ruff and company’s days are likely numbered.
The Devils had a busy week, playing four games and losing them all. They also had some COVID issues, losing Jesper Boqvist, Ryan Graves, Nico Hischier, and P.K. Subban to protocol.
