Hischier and Thompson to IR allow us to keep a few forwards.

Really interesting that they kept nemec over bahl. They wouldn’t keep him as the 7th d and stunt his development so he must actually be going to play. Looks like Smith is 7d then

bahl absolutely deserved that spot, kind of infuriating honestly ,, i know he’ll get more looks but damn

Didn’t Johnsson get waived? Confused why he’s on the roster.

Nemec over Bahl, considering ages, roles, development timelines, and preseason performance, is a WILD choice.
Nemec would benefit so much more than Bahl in the AHL, too. This is weird. Hopefully just a paper move but we’ll see.

I like giving Nemec a chance to solidify a roster spot, likely doesn’t happen but who knows

Seeing a few people mentioning this on twitter, Nemec being on the roster over Bahl may be for cap reasons. Nemec has a higher cap hit so it gives the Devils a little more room to exceed the cap with the Bernier move to LTIR. Remember that the Devils don’t play until Thursday so it’s possible the 23 man roster that’s listed here today isn’t the same roster on Thursday.

Love keeping Nemec up, hate sending Bahl down as a result.
I’m confused about the whole Johnsson scenario, I understand he cleared waivers but he wasn’t assigned to Utica. How is he still on the roster? I guess he’s sticking around until Nico comes off IR, then who knows what comes after that.

Bahl (HDCF%, xGF%, SCF%, xGF/60): 87.5, 70.0, 72.5, 2.7
Nemec (HDCF%, xGF%, SCF%, xGF/60): 47.6, 47.17, 43.8, 1.81
