The New Jersey Devils have had a Timo Meier problem for a while now. Sadly, it is only seeming to get worse. I don’t think anyone is going to fault Meier’s effort on any given night, as he is one…

Writer Gerard Lionetti argues that New Jersey Devils forward Timo Meier is showing alarming signs of decline amid a slow start to the 2026-27 NHL season. Despite receiving top-six ice time under head coach Sheldon Keefe, the 30-year-old forward has recorded just one point—a single assist—and zero goals through his first six games of the campaign.
Lionetti highlights that Meier's offensive output has dropped over successive seasons, falling to 44 points across 77 games in 2025-26. The writer contends that as the Devils' highest-paid forward, Meier's diminished production raises major long-term concerns for the organization.
