Devils' Blake Speers: Returned to juniors

Speers was reassigned to the OHL on Monday.

Analysis:

Speers will head back to Sault Ste. Marie for at least the remainder of the OHL season after appearing in three games with the Devils. In those outings, the winger tallied three shots on goal and one hit while averaging just 9:29 of ice time per night. While it is possible the 19-year-old could be called up to New Jersey later in the year once the junior season is over and the 23-man roster limit is lifted, owners may not want to utilize a roster spot on Speers except perhaps in dynasty leagues.
