Devils development camp is officially in the books after most of the team’s prospects converged on Newark over the past week, so now is a perfect time to step back and reevaluate the team’s farm system with a fresh set of prospect rankings.

Since the last prospect rankings done by NJ Advance Media, a lot has changed. Goalie Mackenzie Blackwood made the full-time jump to the NHL, so he’s no longer included. Forward John Quenneville was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks, and forward Nick Lappin signed with the St. Louis Blues, so they also exited.

Jack Hughes and the rest of the 2019 Devils draft class entered the fold, and two of them are included in the top 15. Here’s a look at our latest rankings:

1-Jack Hughes, F

2018-19 team: U.S. National Team Development Program

Stats: 50 GP, 34 G, 78 A, 112 P

Age: 18

Drafted: 1st round, 1st overall in 2019

Hughes likely won’t have his name on this list for long, since he should make the jump directly to the NHL after being the first overall pick of the draft in June. He’s a high-end skater with the skill to make a big offensive impact in the NHL. He’s got the potential to blossom into an elite NHL player.

2-Ty Smith, D

2018-19 team: Spokane Chiefs (WHL)

Stats: 57 GP, 7 G, 62 A, 69 P

Age: 19

Drafted: 1st round, 17th overall in 2018

Smith nearly made the NHL team following his draft year in 2018, and he’s a strong bet to make the final push for the roster in training camp this fall. He’s a gifted skater with high-end hockey IQ with the puck, which will fit in well with the Devils’ system. He’s worked on the defensive and physical side of his game, and if he can show he’s capable of handling the competition on that end, a spot with the Devils awaits him.

3-Jesper Boqvist, F

2018-19 team: Brynas IF Gavle (SweHL)

Stats: 51 GP, 13 G, 22 A, 35 P

Age: 20

Drafted: 2nd round, 36th overall in 2017

Prior to the arrival of Hughes, Boqvist was the top forward prospect for the Devils, and he’s still up there with his playmaking ability and speed. After signing his entry-level contract, he could contend for a roster spot in September.

4-Joey Anderson, F

2018-19 team: Devils (NHL) / Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 34 GP, 4 G, 3 A, 7 P / 13 GP, 2 G, 4 A, 6 P

Age: 21

Drafted: 3rd round, 73rd overall in 2016

The next three spots are all occupied by players taken in the 2016 NHL Draft, and there’s a case to be made to put them in any order. For now, we’ve got Anderson ranked the highest, based on his work in the NHL last season. A broken ankle disrupted his season, but he’s got the game to allow him to make a bottom-six impact next season.

5-Michael McLeod, F

2018-19 team: Devils (NHL) / Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 21 GP, 0 G, 3 A, 3 P / 55 GP, 6 G, 27 A, 33 P

Age: 21

Drafted: 1st round, 12th overall in 2016

McLeod’s ceiling is likely higher than Anderson’s, just based on his speed and raw skill. But he’s still working toward putting that all together at the NHL level, where he did get 21 games last season. He’s going to be an NHL player, but now it’s just a matter of finding out if he can reach the top-six potential that he carried with his draft position.

6-Nathan Bastian, F

2018-19 team: Devils (NHL) / Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 7 GP, 3 G, 0 A, 3 P / 58 GP, 18 G, 6 A, 24 P

Age: 21

Drafted: 2nd round, 41st overall in 2016

Bastian also made his NHL debut last season, and he scored a pair of goals in the season finale. Bastian has realized his calling as an NHL player will be as a grinder, someone whose physical play and ability to get to the net will let him create offense.

7-Reilly Walsh, D

2018-19 team: Harvard (NCAA)

Stats: 33 GP, 12 G, 19 A, 31 P

Age: 20

Drafted: 3rd round, 81st overall in 2017

Walsh is heading back to Harvard for his junior season in 2019-20, where he could see his biggest role yet, especially following the departure of Adam Fox, who signed with the Rangers to forgo his senior season. Walsh, like Smith, plays his best hockey on the offensive end, but he’s going to get the chance to play big minutes to show he can handle duties on both ends of the ice.

8-Fabian Zetterlund, F

2018-19 team: Farjestads BK Karlstad (SweHL)

Stats: 16 GP, 2 G, 2 A, 4 P

Age: 19 (20 on Aug. 25)

Drafted: 3rd round, 63rd overall in 2017

Zetterlund signed with the Devils and with head to North America following two seasons in Sweden. He’s coming off a knee injury and surgery, but he should be ready for the start of the season. He plays a heavy game, capable of holding the puck and winning battles on the wall, and like Bastian, that’s how he’s going to create his offense at the next level.

9-Mikhail Maltsev, F

2018-19 team: St. Petersburg SKA (KHL)

Stats: 13 GP, 1 G, 1 A, 2 P

Age: 21

Drafted: 4th round, 102nd overall in 2016

Maltsev will make the jump to North America in 2019-20 after playing in Russia for the past two seasons. He’s a big defenseman but a strong skater, and he had a strong showing at development camp, setting the stage for his transition to the AHL or NHL next season.

10-Brett Seney, F

2018-19 team: Devils (NHL) / Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 51 GP, 5 G, 8 A, 13 P / 26 GP, 3 G, 16 A, 19 P

Age: 23

Drafted: 6th round, 157th overall in 2015

Seney played his first pro season in 2018-19, splitting time between the NHL and AHL. He showed in flashes the ability to impact an NHL game offensively. Now the Devils need to see him do it on a more consistent basis to make that full-time jump.

11-Marian Studenic, F

2018-19 team: Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 64 GP, 13 G, 15 A, 28 P

Age: 20 (21 on Oct. 28)

Drafted: 5th round, 143rd overall in 2017

Studenic was one of the pleasant surprises for the AHL team in 2018-19, showing off his scoring touch over the course of his first pro season. He’ll likely start in Binghamton again in 2019-20, where he should be able to keep building and developing.

12-Nikita Okhotyuk, D

2018-19 team: Ottawa 67′s (OHL)

Stats: 56 GP, 2 G, 15 A, 17 P

Age: 18

Drafted: 2nd round, 61st overall in 2019

It’s still far too early to know exactly what the Devils’ 2019 draft class will turn into beyond Hughes, since the other 10 members are all likely at least two years away from contending for a spot in the NHL. But Okhotyuk gets the nod here as a second-round pick. He doesn’t have a ton of upside offensively, but he’s a strong, sound defender that should help pave his way to the NHL eventually.

13-Aarne Talvitie, F

2018-19 team: Penn State (NCAA)

Stats: 17 GP, 5 G, 11 A, 16 P

Age: 20

Drafted: 6th round, 160th overall in 2017

Talvitie suffered a torn ACL that ended his 2018-19 season, but the former seventh-round pick continues to show a lot of promise for his draft spot. He captained Finland at the World Junior Championships, and he will play a bigger role at Penn State as a sophomore.

14-Xavier Bernard, D

2018-19 team: Drummondville Voltigeurs/Charlottetown Islanders (QMJHL)

Stats: 66 GP, 6 G, 19 A, 25 P

Age: 19

Drafted: 4th round, 110th overall in 2018

Bernard was the Devils’ second pick of the 2018 draft after they traded their second and third-round selections. He’s probably got a few years of development left, but he has the tools to turn into a defender at the NHL level.

15-Brandon Gignac, F

2018-19 team: Binghamton Devils (AHL)

Stats: 66 GP, 12 G, 24 A, 34 P

Age: 21

Drafted: 3rd round, 80th overall in 2016

A torn ACL ended Gignac’s first pro season in 2017-18, but he stayed healthy and made his NHL debut in 2018-19. Now with the injury fully behind him and a full year in the AHL under his belt, he’ll continue to work toward getting a bigger NHL chance.
