Will the Devils Ultimately Regret Not Keeping Ty Smith in the NHL This Year?

Secondary scoring has been a popular topic among Devils fans so far this season. I wrote about the Devils concerns there last week and it comes up all around the fanbase a fair amount. Now 10 games in, the Devils are currently in a bit of a tailspin following a blistering 4-0-0 start and they are searching for a player outside of their dominant top line who can spark the team. Meanwhile, as the Devils struggle to shake out of this funk, they have a potential young star lighting up the league down in the WHL.

That player, of course, is Ty Smith, the Devils first-round draft selection from this past summer.
