After an abysmal 2021-2022 regular season, the New Jersey Devils and their fans hope to improve this October. Luckily, the team has improved over the offseason, and with the natural progression of their young stars, should be a much better team this year. Let’s look at my point predictions for each Devils player.

Forwards:

In my opinion, the skater group last year was good enough for playoff contention. With the goaltending and power-play woes, the unit posted 2.99 goals/game, good enough for the 19th best in the league. We should expect an improvement on this number. With the hiring of Andrew Brunette and the hopeful decrease in injuries, the Devils should be fun to watch this year.
