Of the Devils’ additions this offseason, Kyle Palmieri looks to have the most promise. The Montvale, New Jersey native will look to cement a role in the top-six in the 2015-16 season. What should we expect from the former Anaheim Duck in 2016? Is he considered a bust after being selected 23rd overall in 2009? I will answer these questions and more in this post on the Devils’ draft day acquisition.
Palmieri grew up in New Jersey, but spent his youth cheering for the Rangers. He spent his high school years playing with the United States National Team Development Program (USNTDP).
