The New Jersey Devils announced today that rookie defenseman Seamus Casey has been sent to the Utica Comets of the AHL. Seamus had 3 goals and an assist in 8 games with the NJ Devils this season. He is going to be a great player for the Devils in the future. Daniil Misyul has been recalled from Utica. This seems to be an indicator that Luke Hughes is close to returning to the lineup.
– Which defenseman will come out of the lineup when Brett Pesce is healthy?
– Ondrej Palat was on the 1st Line with Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt at practice today.
I discuss all of this and more in this video.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Anybody on d back on defense yet
"How can you possibly tell this kid after the way he's been performing 'Sorry kid, you're gonna be riding buses with Utica.'"
They found a way.
Ace, thought you’d like to know, a store at the mall here in Albany has River Rats jerseys for sale. Thought of you when I saw them.
I forget who on Twitter reported this so idk the validity, but I saw a report that Casey himself said that he was really starting to feel the difference in scheduling between the NCAA and the NHL. So if this is true, with Luke and Pesce inbound anytime soon, I would rather Seamus step down now, especially while he's highly regarded in everyone's minds, and more slowly adjust to the professional level while further honing his skills in the AHL, instead of crashing and burning.
This is best for Casey. As mentioned in the video, Keefe was getting gun-shy to give Casey minutes due to his overall liability to the NHL team, but the kid needs as much time on ice as possible for his future.
I fully believe that Casey will be hungry for more after getting a taste of the NHL and he'll definitely make it even harder to send him down after he gets called up again.
Palat on the first line 😖😖
Not gonna lie…with Jack not really producing much, I would send him down to the 2nd or 3rd line. Maybe that'll give him a kick in the ass to step it up a little.
Palat is the worst player in the league. You could replace him with literally anyone from Utica and you wouldn't notice any difference. He should be ashamed to cash his checks. I got banned from a Devils fan forum for dumping all over the signing the second it was announced. Look at him now. He's complete trash. Doesn't belong on any line. One of the worst contracts the team has ever handed out.
Give the kid props. He gave everything on his shifts and delivered important goals, solid player. Wish him luck! Thought Nemec would have went before Casey. Palat is dusty, should have drained his breakaway Saturday night. LGD!!!
I think Nemec looked like crap starting off but has slowly been looking better and better each game. Palat on the first line hurts my head. Maybe it works but at this point i think Noeson needs to go in there. Hes had time on the PP with Jack and Bratt and is the best devil at playing fetch other than the captain.
The schedule is ridiculous. There's the long break in February, and otherwise it's packed. We have 4 games in 6 nights multiple times, twice in October.
I don't know if this will be a popular idea but with our depth and the busy schedule and the high-energy style, we should platoon some players. Dress 23 guys and use healthy scratches.
The schedule definitely didn't help Casey. I think it also contributed to the shitty play vs the Caps and it could even make injuries more likely.
Dumb ass question Ace: Is Seamo eligible for the Calder next year?
one thing about this coach is that if your playing like shit he'll let you know…hughes is screwed…
I told you my victory lap could be short lived lol
It’s frustrating they cant find someone to play on jacks wing and idk if its cuz half the time they dont know wat jacks doing with the puck.. jacks super skilled and hes a competitor ive seen that in him he needs to get going.. i wana pissed off jack that people pay to see
Markys been getting beat glove side alot still think hes gonna have a great year
Even tho the team is flawed, there's too much talent to be worried ! Seldomly does a team hitting on all cylinders early in a season , can carry it all year long.
I think Palat must have pictures of Fitzy in Uncompromising positions. Dude sucks!!!!
Guy who scores 3 goals on 4 shots demoted. Guy who can’t buy a goal goes to top line.
Thanks for making me feel better about Casey. Hopefully Misyul helps until Pesce and/or Luke is back. In regards to Palat I really think everyone is in a bad spot. Not sure if this is still accurate but last I heard he had a team worst +/- In his shoes I’d be real aware of that and the fact that I have this high contract for no real return. Makes you grip the stick too tight, and exacerbates the problem. Honestly best thing at this point for I think both him and the team is to waive the NTC as sometimes teams just aren’t a good fit. Now hopefully by me saying that he proves me wrong and scores a lot on that top line.
This is basically giving Palat a chance to see if he can produce with the top 2 most offensively skilled players on the team. If not then he's gotta go but he has a full NMC
Make Siegenthaler first pair D while we're at it 😂
Devils need to beat tampa i wana see them beat a real contender
