A late goal from Jesper Bratt kept the Devils from being shut out, but otherwise the goals dried up as the Devils dropped a 2-1 loss to the Capitals on Friday. [Devils NHL<\/a>]<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s been a tough season for the Maple Leafs, but Knies has been one of their more productive players. He\u2019s averaged 2.26 points per 60 minutes at five-on-five, making him their second most efficient five-on-five scorer behind William Nylander. However, there are red flags that\u2019d give me pause about acquiring Knies. There are only two Maple Leafs skaters above 50 percent in xGs, and Knies is not one of them. Not even close. He has an xG% of 45.88 percent this season, one of the worst marks on the Maple Leafs.\u201d [Devils on the Rush<\/a> ($)]<\/p>\n \u201cFitzgerald\u2019s draft record in the second round and beyond is more or less fine. By that, I mean that the probability of a draftee turning into an NHL-caliber player generally drastically diminishes in the second round and beyond, and, to be frank, the Devils have drafted two NHL-caliber players (Lenni H\u00e4meenaho and Seamus Casey) in the second round. New Jersey has not hit on any third-rounders in recent memory, and any draftee in the fourth round and beyond is typically some form of dart throw. The first round resume, however, is outright putrid.\u201d [Devils\u2019 Advocates<\/a>]<\/p>\n A brutal hit nets A.J. Greer just a three-game suspension:<\/p>\n \u201cThis year\u2019s Sabres aren\u2019t just the season\u2019s best bandwagon team; they might be the single greatest bandwagon team of all time. Seriously, can you think of a better option?\u201d [The Athletic<\/a> ($)]<\/p>\n \u201cMinnesota\u2019s hockey community is mourning longtime NHL writer Jessi Pierce and her three children following a deadly house fire in White Bear Lake. Fire officials said four people \u2014 including three children \u2014 were found dead inside a home early Saturday, March 21, in the 2100 block of Richard Avenue. Authorities have not yet publicly identified the victims or said what caused the fire.\u201d [Minnesota Star Tribune<\/a>]<\/p>\n Feel free to discuss these and any other hockey-related stories in the comments below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Here are your links for today: A late goal from Jesper Bratt kept the Devils from being shut…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":518474,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5109],"tags":[201,26250,5,576,151,5185,5184,4],"class_list":{"0":"post-518473","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-jersey-devils","8":"tag-devils","9":"tag-devils-in-the-details","10":"tag-hockey","11":"tag-new-jersey","12":"tag-new-jersey-devils","13":"tag-newjersey","14":"tag-newjerseydevils","15":"tag-nhl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116278757009057454","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=518473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/518474"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=518473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=518473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=518473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
