I believe that in addition to the games played threshold, the Devils also need to secure a playoff spot.
Yup, they do. I was operating on the feeling that they were automatic for a spot, but it is not a foregone conclusion.

The 25 games seem unlikely if you ask me, Allen isn’t all that hot when he gets a heavy workload. We have witnessed that here.
 
Del bel belluz is doing well. I still think he's the better player between than Beck. He's got a lot more gifted offensively.
They're very different, it's still hard to tell at this point IMO. Beck is a much better skater and 2way player, but DBB does have a superior offensive toolbox. I'd say Beck's floor is a bit higher but if DBB hits he's a top 6 player pretty easy.

Yeah, I get what hockey scouts see in Beck (just wins cups), and it's far from over. Beck could turn out to be the better player. But I think DBB was better at the time, and has the inside track now.
