Episode Details

The New Jersey Devils, despite being ten points out of the playoffs, have chosen to compete rather than tank for a better draft pick. Their recent winning streak has improved their chances of securing a top prospect, but has also dropped their draft position. Center Jack Hughes and others believe that ending the season strong will build team pride and set them up as Stanley Cup contenders next year. Other teams like the Philadelphia Flyers and Columbus Blue Jackets have also prioritized culture and competing late, showing that it can lead to real progress for young squads.
