Slip Sliding Away

Created by: Opie
Team: 2021-22 New Jersey Devils
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 19, 2021
Published: Apr. 19, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
NJ going all in on youth with a historically young team ... tankathon is on. Hard to stomach, but also hard to argue the merits ... looks like a premium top 5 pick is in the cards & a continuous beat down from the division rivals to end 20 - 21.

This 21-22 team likely secures another lottery pick in stacked 22 draft, despite progress on the ice. 22 offseason, NJ starts pushing for better UFAs & more serious contention going forward. Failure from there means Fitzgerald's job.

Taxi Squad are players who I believe (guess) start next season in AHL. However, all have a shot of call ups through the year.... Left out the likely signing of (or trade for) another UFA or two (signed very short term) for Leadership.

      agreed, they will struggle again next year but the top of 2022 draft is loaded so I'm fine with that
