The New Jersey Devils' 2014-15 season is over, and once again the Devils have failed to make the playoffs. There is a lot of negativity and criticism around New Jersey at the moment, as well there should be, but the team's disappointing overall performance should not detract from the impressive individual performances seen from certain Devils players.
Players like Michael Cammalleri, Andy Greene, Steve Bernier and Cory Schneider deserve praise for their excellent play this season, even if it was not enough to carry a mediocre team to the playoffs.
This article will distribute awards to the Devils' top players in a variety of categories. We will first look at the Unsung Hero and Players' Player awards, usually decided via a team vote by New Jersey's players. This year, however, general manager and interim head coach Lou Lamoriello decided not to award these honors to any player.
Other awards will include Defenseman of the Season, Forward of the Season, Young Player of the Season, Comeback Player of the Season and Most Valuable Player.
