As the New Jersey Devils look forward to the 2025-26 season, several forwards are expected to take significant strides in their development. Jack Hughes, already a pivotal player for the Devils, is anticipated to continue his upward trajectory. His playmaking skills and scoring ability have set the stage for him to become one of the league's elite centers. The upcoming season presents a prime opportunity for Hughes to further showcase his talent and leadership on a contending team.

Additionally, Jesper Bratt is poised for a breakout year. Having shown flashes of brilliance over the past seasons, Bratt's offensive production has been on the rise. With improved consistency and an enhanced understanding of his role, he could very well elevate his game to new heights, contributing significantly to the Devils' offensive output.

Finally, Yegor Sharangovich is another name to watch as he seeks to establish himself as a reliable scorer. After a solid showing in past campaigns, Sharangovich's blend of speed and skill can bring a dynamic element to the Devils' lineup. With increased ice time and offensive responsibilities, he has all the tools necessary to solidify his position among the team’s key contributors.
