The latest on Nikita Zadorov trade rumors, Colin Miller getting close to a return, Alex Holtz's usage and more in this edition of New Jersey Devils News Rewind
Do you think it's the Devils long term plan to play Luke on the right side? I always assumed he'd be on the left, just because that's his shooting side.
He played the right side in college for most of his time with Michigan. But my guess is they want him on the left side long-term. Either way, I think he can play both comfortably, so probably not much of an issue
Novo completely misrepresented Holtz's statements when interviewing Lindy. He directly asks Holtz about how he feels about his usage this year, then he proceeds to interview Ruff and state "Holtz brought up his lack of usage earlier". I don't agree with Ruff's usage of Holtz, but no coach wants to hear that his player is openly complaining to reporters about playing time.
