Election Day might have passed, but Judgement Day should be upon us in regard to New Jersey Devils defenseman Simon Nemec. How much longer can the sophomore defenseman sit on the pine pony? More on that in the links below.
Also in the links, there’s a Boston Bruins forward who is drawing interest from multiple clubs. Whether they trade him or not is up in the air, but if they decide to entertain it, the Devils should be contenders.
Elsewhere, a scary injury incident in St. Louis, Philly’s potential trade ask for a veteran defenseman, and a potential reunion in Buffalo.
Let’s do that hockey.

NYI Hockey Now: The New York Islanders are so banged up, they’ve reached deep into their prospect pool for reinforcements. Isaiah George — a promising, yet raw blue line prospect — made his NHL debut on Long Island last night.
Philly Hockey Now: At the age of 30, Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen is not going to be a part of the organization’s long-term plans on the ice. According to a report, the veteran blue liner could net a top draft pick in an NHL trade.
Buffalo Hockey Now: We’ve advocated before for a potential Devils reunion with Taylor Hall. But, what if he returns to the Buffalo Sabres?
