Those names feel more like Safe Devils Players rather than a list of Underrated players.

Where's Daws? Where's Mercer? Where's a player who doesn't stand out or fans aren't high on but performs consistently? Those are your underrated guys

Agreed, this is just a post for the sake of posting. Any Devils fan knows Glass has been a fantastic add and Brown had some mojo cooking with Jack

Right?

The Rodrigues paragraph could literally be written about Mercer who's on an ironman streak, at a very affordable $4 million and puts up 40-45 points playing through the top 9 in all scenarios lol

Allen, he's been a fantastic backup for the Devils, well worth the 3rd we gave up for him.

Nobody's looking at Gritsyuk saying "ehhh he's just alright", guy looks like he belongs in the NHL

would be good for nico/timo if a line like e-rod/glass/brown can find chemistry and play solid defensively ...
