The 2017-18 season was a major step in the right direction for the New Jersey Devils, with the team playing past the conclusion of the regular season for the first time since 2012. While making the playoffs was nice, the team still needs some more pieces to be true contenders both now and in the future. With the 17th overall pick in what is being touted as a deep draft, New Jersey will be looking for a player that can bolster their prospect pool. If they want to go by areas of need, as well as players that can contribute sooner rather than later, the Devils should take a look at Vitali Kravtsov.
