The Devils Have Had Quality Fourth Line Play So Far This Season Share this story Photo by Mike Stobe/NHLI via Getty Images In the 2016 NHL Draft, the New Jersey Devils selected 12th overall. In the first round, they took Mississauga center Michael McLeod. In the second round, 41st overall, they decided to take his teammate and linemate, right winger Nathan Bastian. They had done a number for the Steelheads that year, McLeod posting 61 points in 57 games and Bastian had 59 points in 64 games. Two picks after Bastian went to New Jersey, Carolina took forward Janne Kuokkanen from Karpat in the Finnish Liiga. He had crushed the Jr. A league in Finland for junior players, posting 53 points in 47 games, and earned himself one game in the Liiga where he posted two goals. At the time, they all seemed like promising prospects who had potential to become NHL regulars, especially McLeod at 12 overall.
