It is NHL Playoff time and that means that your favorite teams will be providing you memories that will last a lifetime (both good and bad). The New Jersey Devils missed the playoffs for the second time in three seasons, but over the time of their existence they have provided their fan base with some ...
When your team doesn’t make the NHL playoffs (it’s kind of hard not to as 16 of 30 teams qualify), the season is deemed as unsuccessful. When the New Jersey Devils don’t make the playoffs (2 times in 16 seasons/2 of the last 3) changes will be made, as their mantra is: Stanley Cup or bust. ...
We were allowed to take a couple days off and look at what happened. Everything went crazy in the fantasy hockey world. There have been fantasy hockey duds and studs galore. Then, as always, the ugly often pops up unexpectedly. This week presented the first week of playoffs in some cases and the sting of ...
This really has gone to the dogs and that is not a bad thing always. All we keep hearing is just how bad it is getting trying to navigate rosters full of red on people’s spreadsheets. The anger that owners exhibit this time of year borders on sheer lunacy. You never think of issues like ...

Jacob Josefson has had a bumpy start to his NHL career with the New Jersey Devils — he has shown flashes of brilliance, but has also fallen victim to the injury ninja. Not just any injuries though, ones that last months rather than days or weeks. Now in his third season as a pro (2009 ...
The New Jersey Devils have had the best start possible to the 2013 season, which is obvious by their 2-0-0 record, but is that good start because they have out-played their opponents or have they out-smarted them? It could be possibly both, but (my) gut feeling says the latter. Aside from the absence of Zach ...
In what looked like a continuation of their Eastern Conference semi-final tilt last spring between the Philadelphia Flyers and New Jersey Devils, one squad knew when to throw punches and when to pull them and the other appeared mired in an early season struggle. It was typical Flyers and Devils. Frustrations flew and tempers flared. ...
Getting up to speed. That’s what the New Jersey Devils and the rest of the NHL finds itself doing in this early abbreviated season.
