The New Jersey Devils went into the 2018-19 season knowing that they would need to get secondary scoring to be successful. The expectation was that young players such as Jesper Bratt, Pavel Zacha, Miles Wood, and John Quenneville would take the next step in their development and fill the net, at least somewhat.
Flash forward from the start of the season to today: Wood has been average to meh with 5 points in 16 contests. Bratt missed all but the last 3 games with a broken jaw, though he still shows enough potential and skill to be part of the solution.
