With the New Jersey Devils' season coming to a conclusion sooner rather than later, it is natural as fans to look beyond the last few games and think about what this team will need for next season if it wants to build on this years' successes. This year did have its triumphs, and I believe anyone would say that it was an improvement over last season, which is no small thing. Improvement each and every year will lead this team back into playoff contention.
Of course, one big area that needs improvement is scoring, and no one denies that.
