Markstrom will get back to form and the defense will improve drastically as Luke and Pesce get back up to speed. You're going to see Jack start to torch the league again after last night too.
With that said, the Devils are desparately missing a significant scoring piece in the top 6. Mercer is meh and the constant rotation of Palat/Tatar/Cotter in that spot is a weakness. Marchessault would have been a massive addition there.
With a significant gap in the lineup like that, you're going to get games like this where you dominate, can't finish, and lose the goaltending battle.
