New Jersey Devils: A Look Back And Forward

Any time a team misses the postseason, it’s disappointing.  That is especially true of an organization with the expectations of the New Jersey Devils.  Although it may be tempting to write off the season as a lockout shortened campaign, one with a smaller sample size, in the same breath, it’s hard to be completely dismissive ...

At Least The Devils Picked A Good Year To Suck

To say the least, it has been a tumultuous year for the New Jersey Devils. Left for dead by prognosticators following the off-season free agent exit of team captain Zach Parise, the Devils set out in 2012-13 to (as always) prove the critics wrong. After storming out of the gate to a 9-2-3 mark, the ...

THW Panel: The Top 10 Most Underrated NHL Players

Some NHL players never receive enough credit for the on-ice production they offer to their respective teams. Every season, there are players who fly under the radar and manage to have a great season and help their team every game without making the headlines a la Sidney Crosby or Jonathan Quick. These unheralded and underrated players ...

Devils Hope To Hit Reset Button On Mid-Season Malaise

When last we examined the “State of the Union” for the New Jersey Devils, they were riding high and perched atop the Eastern Conference standings.  No team was hotter, save for the seemingly indestructible Chicago Blackhawks.  Alas, the Devils were not immune to the plight of the injury ninja.  Specifically one to the back of ...

Dan Girardi Kicking Butt on the NHL All-Underrated Team

When Dan Girardi stayed down, writhing in pain, after blocking a Montreal slap-shot with his ankle Saturday night, the entire Ranger organization and fan-base was frozen for a moment in palpable trepidation. Blocking shots is just one of the unheralded yet elite facets of Girardi’s game. The once undrafted free agent out of the Welland, ...

Devils Struggling to Find Consistency After a Hot Start

The New Jersey Devils are still in the top half of the Eastern Conference with 22 points (9-3-4), but they haven’t put together a solid 60-minute game since completing a home-and-home sweep of the Pittsburgh Penguins on February 10 by identical 3-1 scores. Those two ‘convincing wins’ were followed up by roller coaster week: a ...

New Jersey Devils At The Quarter Pole

New Jersey Devils General Manager Lou Lamoriello typically cites the 20 game mark as a barometer to assess team performance.  That point is usually about the quarter mark of the regular season.  Of course this is hardly your typical season and with 12 games under their belts, the Devils are now a fourth of the ...

Deal with the Devils: Travis Zajac Re-Signs For 8-Years

After seeing many of their best players leave via free agency over the years (Zach Parise, Scott Gomez, Brian Gionta, Brian Rafalski, Scott Niedermayer) the New Jersey Devils ensured that Travis Zajac won’t be going anywhere for a while. The 27-year-old center and the team that drafted him in 2004 agreed to what is believed ...
