The Devils have seen a handful of key players struggle to find their footing offensively, and they need them to deliver to turn this team into a competitive, playoff-caliber one.
The Hockey News highlights several New Jersey Devils players who must improve their offensive production following a 3-3 start to the season. While Jack Hughes, Jesper Bratt, and Nico Hischier have led the scoring, depth contributors including Dawson Mercer, Amadeus Lombardi, Timo Meier, and Evan Rodrigues have struggled to produce early on.

The article also notes that defenseman Luke Hughes, forward Anthony Mantha, and winger Arseny Gritsyuk need to elevate their scoring to support New Jersey's reconfigured roster.
