Nico Hischier Continues To Produce For Devils

New Jersey Devils forward Nico Hischier has five goals and eight points in his last nine games.

Despite being held pointless […]

Devils Roll With Keith Kinkaid Versus Hurricanes

Sami Vatanen on a Roll

New Jersey Devils defenseman Sami Vatanen has been on an absolute tear as of late.
