Win or Lose, Good Things Are Happening

Related Topics: New Jersey Devils, Michael Ryder

Despite the fact that the New Jersey Devils have fallen out of a current playoff position and are seemingly falling down in a super tight division, it is not wrong to say that the team has come out of the gate at least fairly well, well enough to stay competitive early on. And that competition has been great for the morale of the team, for the enjoyment of the fans who have not seen a truly competitive team in half a decade now, and for the overall atmosphere and vibe surrounding the organization. Throughout the fairly strong start to the year, especially when this team was 9-3-3 and sitting in a strong position, it has been easy to forget that this is still a rebuilding team.
