Devils Daily: Brylin to be Honored, Changes Afoot in Detroit Lineup

Okay, so, did anyone else tear up watching the Sergei Brylin Ring of Honor announcement video? Certainly, it couldn’t have just been me. The New Jersey Devils organization nailed the second selection for the Ring of Honor and it’s good to see them revive its relevance.

The Devils are in Detroit today. They’ll play the Detroit Red Wings tonight but will skate at 11:30 in the morning, so we’ll get a glimpse of what they’ll look like without Nico Hischier. More on that later.

Elsewhere, is one of Pittsburgh’s star forwards losing his touch? Should the Hawks take a chance on a sputtering Columbus forward? And, is Philly going to extend one of their young, promising forwards on an expiring deal? It’s all in the links.

Let’s do that hockey.

New Jersey Devils

More NJHN: The Devils’ blueline has certainly struggled this season. Enter Colin Miller who — in a short sample — has simply been awesome. Is he just what New Jersey needed to return to form? We crunched the numbers.

NJ.com: In case you missed it, the Devils will be without one of their star forwards not named Nico Hischier on Wednesday against the Detroit Red Wings.
