The 2018-19 campaign is quickly becoming another lost year in the history of the New Jersey Devils; while there’s still a good amount of hockey left to play (4 months roughly) the chances of playoff hockey returning to New Jersey for a second season in a row are low. 95 points is a good estimate of what it takes to make the playoffs, so the Devils would need to approximately go 32-16-5 in the remaining 53 games to even have a chance to qualify. You can tinker with the numbers a bit, but still, the bottom line is they would need to win a lot more often than they’d lose and a lot more often then they have been winning.
