You’ve all heard the stories of the New Jersey Devils offseason before. Adding Jack Hughes, P.K. Subban and Wayne Simmonds made the team look brand new. Then, on July 29th the Devils and the Vegas Golden Knights got together and sent KHL superstar Nikita Gusev to the Garden State.
Things were all hype from there on out. Gusev was a favorite among Devils Twitter fans. In fact, many credit our own Tyler Kelley for getting Gusev to New Jersey. We thought he could be easily a 30-goal scorer who could also be a great distributor when necessary.
