A few weeks ago, we included Ty Smith as one of the prospects we profiled on Devils Daily. Both Dave and Jeff spoke very highly about him, detailing his skating and high hockey IQ and leadership qualities.

It was an incredible night for the New Jersey Devils and The NHL, as Taylor Hall took home the Hart, being named the league's MVP and Brian Boyle won the Masterton Trophy for his courageous and victorious battle against cancer.

The entire awards show was full of wonderful moments, as members associated with different tragedies were honored. We'll break it all down on what was truly a special night for the NHL.

We start the show with a discussion of our new chat platform and Taylor Hall being up for the Hart Trophy tonight. Then we shift into 5 listener-requested player profiles (12:29) before diving into listener comments/questions (42:33) about NJD personnel, trade ideas and draft discussion. We finish things out by making our mock draft picks (1:30:03).

We start the show with a few pieces of news and notes before heading into an in-depth look at some prospects for the 2nd and 3rd round (27:56) if the Devils choose to trade down/back in to those rounds as well as the 4th round and beyond (1:25:46).

Dave and Jeff open the show with a discussion about the Draft in general and how boards are put together. Then, it's the unveiling of their Top-31 rankings (10:55) starting with the Top 10, then shifting into the middle of the round (29:27) with a new guy for Jeff (49:04) and then the last 11 players (55:29) including a new player for Dave (1:17:16).

In this show, Dave & Jeff discuss the idea of trading for Jeff Skinner (1:25), talk about Nino Niederreiter and roster construction with Sean in Hawthorne (7:53), mention Elias reportedly turning down a coaching gig with the Devils (23:51) and then jump into 1st Round Draft Profiles of Vitaly Kravtsov (30:07), Dominik Bokk (41:43), Grigori Denisenko (50:25) and Martin Kaut (1:03:41). They also go through a listener-sent question about swapping McLeod for NYI's 11th or 12th pick (1:17:49), an addicting 7-round NHL Draft simulator (1:27:53) and finish with Governor Murphy making the 1st NJ sports bet on the Devils to win the Stanley Cup (1:32:22).

Draft day can be a busy day not just for the selection of young players, but in terms of drafting, as well. We'll go over some of our own ideas in terms of trade prosposals, names we like and also read off some of the suggestions that you have come up with recently.

We'll debate it all, as we look at all of the possibilities for Ray and Co. during the draft.

As we head towards the end of our draft prospect list, we take a look at a quartet of talented forward prospects. Akil Thomas and Serron Noel of the OHL and Joel Farabee and Oliver Wahlstrom of the NTDP, both of whom will be attending college next season with Farabee headed to Boston University and Wahlstrom headed to arch-rival Boston College.

We also touch on OEL's extension in AZ, sports betting and if we can do Devils prop bets and the Capitals ridiculous Cup celebrations.

A busy Monday show has us exploring the 2019 Stanley Cup odds that were released on Friday. We pivot to Patrik Elias being named an AC with the Czech U20s and what it means. Also on the menu is a trip down memory lane with the 15th anniversary of the 2003 Stanley Cup run. Then we'll shift into our Round 1 Target Profiles and examine Jesperi Kotkaniemi, Ryan McLeod & Isac Lundestrom.

In this episode, we go over Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals, the signings of Yegor Yakovlev & John Edwardh, the cap rising, Scott Sandelin's new role and then we dig into more conversation about John Carlson and John Tavares.
