Simon Nemec - Stands out in debutNemec registered two assists and three shots on goal in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Sharks.
ImpactNemec set up Dawson Mercer's first-period power-play goal and an even-strength tally by Ondrej Palat in the third. This was a solid debut for Nemec, who led the Devils' blueliners with 22:38 of ice time in his NHL debut. The 19-year-old should be on the radar in all fantasy formats with Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) on injured reserve indefinitely. Nemec and Luke Hughes are poised to battle for power-play time, but there's now enough room for both of them to also see top-four minutes at even strength.

Ondrej Palat - Buries goal in lossPalat scored a goal on six shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Sharks.
ImpactPalat's tally in the third period cut the deficit to 4-3, but the Devils couldn't pull even. All three of his goals have come in the last seven games, and he's added two assists in that span. The 32-year-old winger is up to 11 points, 41 shots on net, 23 hits, 12 blocked shots, 19 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 22 outings overall. Palat can chip in offense at a slightly higher rate than he's shown, but he hasn't topped the 50-point mark since 2016-17.
