[Devils-list] Mogilny

Let's not forget that Mogilny scored in 11 of the 12 games before the 
playoffs.  He hit his hot streak at the end of the regular season.  Whether 
it was bad timing or just shooting his load too early, he's just one of 
those streaky scorers that is hot or cold.  If you want consistency, he's 
not your guy...
