New Jersey Devils‘ undrafted rookie defenseman Joe Sova(36) skated in 11 AHL games with Albany after his final college season was over.
He started his rookie year with Kalamazoo Wings of the ECHL but was recalled in early December. In 11 games he has a couple of goals and a couple of assists and looks pretty comfortable and accountable out there.
Look for him to continue to move up the depth chart and potentially step into his first NHL even before the end of the current season. He’s fairly big at 6’3″ 190 lbs and is all of 23 years old.
