Travis And The Texans Dominate Again
The Travis Zajac–Stefan Noesen–Blake Coleman combination was first united on January 30. Still, the line finished as the third-most-used combination for the 2017-2018 Devils.
Essentially a 1985 Bears defense-Dikembe Mutombo hybrid, the line was repeatedly tasked with shutting down the opponent’s premier attackers. Zajac and his two Texan wingers came out alive and thriving, securing a 53.38% Corsi and 58.72% SCF (scoring chances for).
Built with the Devils’ two best penalty-killers, this line is spilling over with two-way talent. It should once again shoulder a heavy load and dominate for the Devils.
