After taking Adam Larsson with the fourth overall pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, the New Jersey Devils are in a very different position one-year later. Barring a trade, New Jersey will have to wait until 28 prospects are taken before it's their turn to draft. Last year, Devils GM Lou Lamoriello could concentrate on the top draft picks. This time around it's far more complicated. "Now, the focus is not on say eight or 10 players or even 12 players," Lamoriello said. "Last year, it was maybe four of five. Then, you're thinking about trading down or whatever. Here it's focused in on a larger pool of players." Of course, 2011 was the exception rather than the rule for the Devils. New Jersey is use to making the playoffs and consequently getting a lesser draft position. The 2010-11 campaign ended their streak of 13 straight playoff appearances. They're hoping that they started another lengthy streak in 2011-12.
