Team: 2022-23 New Jersey Devils

Initial Creation Date: Jan. 26, 2023

Published: Jan. 26, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Zetterlund scratched a couple of weeks ago, reason given by Ruff is that he hasn't been producing much of anything as of late.
Well, neither are Wood and McLeod, and they don't even have the 5v5 impacts that Zetterlund got.

Ever since December both Wood and McLeod have played mostly awful hockey.
They don't deserve to play tonight.

This how I'd like the Devils to lineup against the Predators.

Somewhat agree on Wood.
Somewhat disagree on McLeod.

But now that Bastian is back...I'd give the BMW line some time to be that effective checking line from first part of season.

Should have traded wood 2 years ago for a Coleman-line return

I heavily disagree on McLeod. While he isn’t scoring at the clip he was when the BMW line was clicking, he’s been a great forechecker and still the FO guy on the time. Not to mention he can kill penalties and his defensive game is still adequate. He doesn’t need to be scoring to be valuable and I think he is a fine 4th line center and think he will resign for 2 or 3 years.

Wood on the other hand is probably done in NJ after this season.

I agree those 3 players seem to have much more impact when they r together and the Ruff broke them up last game, they need to stay together for a few games to get back in their rhythm.

As for Zetterlund he does score he was just buried for a bit before he was scratched and he is much better than boqvist. Boqvist needs to come out and Zetterlund needs to come in
