Jean-Pierre Devote | The McDavid of The VHLM

[eagle_3450 278]

Jean-Pierre Devote had a relatively slow start to the VHLM season, after going under a point per game through the first 18 games of the season, sitting at just 17 points. Since then however, Devote has been on fire. With San Diego losing their #1 defenseman in Factor Lee, Devote stepped up and has now become one of the top scorers in the league. He is no longer a force to be reckoned with just on paper, but is now climbing the ladder in VHLM points and is currently ranked 9th in the league with 35 points in 26 games. This sets his most recent scoring pace at an insane 18 points in his last 8 games, along with being +14 in that span. This trend is eerily similar to what Connor McDavid did this current NHL season, when after a slow start, he put up 25 points in just 13 games and climbed all the way back up to the top ten in NHL points. Could this be a sign that Devote will be the VHL's version of Connor McDavid? Could he be the next big thing and actually achieve his goal of being the best Monegasque hockey player ever? If he can continue on this trajectory, then the answer to both of those questions is undoubtedly, yes.
