Nico is the real deal. Lot's of slick moves in his first game, and a some beautiful moves behind the net now for his first assist.

I hear that. Hockey is so much more fun to watch with a (budding) superstar on your team

Beautiful assist for his first NHL point.
Really reminded me of Datsyuk on that play

He did great against the Caps in preseason, hopefully he get's the monkey off his back against them tonight!

It's early, I know... but maybe he just isn't ready yet? It could be good for him to go back to QMJHL for a while. He is clearly unable to play with his strengths in NHL. Another season of QMJHL would probably be very beneficial for him.
I think that it could be a good move to send him down after he plays his 7th game, assuming he still struggles at that point.

i disagree, i think the first three games he couldve had multiple points. tonight against the caps was a big let down but they still scored 2. let him stay the whole year and get some reps in against the big boys. at this point the devils are playing with house money. no reason to knock him down a peg.
I think he stays in the NHL. He's too talented to go back to Junior. There's not much more he can learn at that level.

From the sounds of it, appears he had an off game tonight. I still have faith in the kid. His flashes of skill in his previous games is something you can work with.
Basically everyone on the Devils had a bad game tonight. This was his first blanatantly bad game. He's a rookie and that's gonna happen some nights.

Of course. Even if the Devils make a playoff push, they can't view this as anything more than a learning season when it comes to Hischier. He will make mistakes, he will be out of position, he will make bad choices, he will look lost. Forgive him for everything. It's the only way to learn. Trial by fire. He'll be better off for it next season.

Caps are a really physical team, and Hischier especially looked soft. He hasn't really had that issue in the previous games since his speed and puck handling has made up for it, but rough one for him tonight. That being said, the whole team looked like ass so I'm hardly putting any blame on the 18 year old rookie.

He’s been doing the right things, trust me he’s NHL ready. He just hasn’t been getting the puck luck. It’ll come around if he keeps it up. Not sure which games you’ve been watching, he’s been great. If you look at the box score you may not think so.

He is so slick. Devils fans should definitely be excited about him. Hischier and Patrick will prove plenty of people wrong.
I will say though, it wouldn't hurt him to dominate the Q for another season. Either way, the Devils future is looking brighter than it has in a long time.
