It had been a long time since the Devils had a top 10 draft pick. (1996) Even longer since a top 5 one. (1991) The light at the
end of the dark tunnel that was the 10-11 season was that they got the prior... and winning the draft lottery got them the latter.
To summarize what happened next: Welcome to North America, Adam Larsson.
Oh, what to say, what to say... Top ranked defenseman in the draft, top ranked European in the draft, already compared to
Nicklas Lidstrom, quiet, calm to the point that sometimes you have to check his pulse to make sure he's alive... I'll stop there.
I've said for years now that with everybody locking up their star D-men long term, the only way the Devils were gonna get one
themselves is through the draft. Sure enough, they have one now.
