Predicting Devils Opening Night Roster

Predicting Devils Opening Night Roster

October 1st, 2017 With the New Jersey Devils’ preseason at its end, now is as good a time as any to predict the team’s opening night lineup. Some young players burst onto the scenes with highly impressive showings and others looked like they could use some seasoning in juniors, college or the AHL. With that said, here is my take for the Devils’...
3 Devils Who Could Sneak Into the Lineup

3 Devils Who Could Sneak Into the Lineup

September 25th, 2017 In stark contrast to previous years, the New Jersey Devils are light on professional tryouts (PTOs) in 2017-18. The major rationale, in all likelihood, is that the roster has not featured this level of depth and potential in its five-year playoff drought and the young guns are just too talented to be crowded out by aging veterans. That...
Where Do Devils New Signings Fit?

Where Do Devils New Signings Fit?

August 29th, 2017 Despite falling short on signing both Kevin Shattenkirk and Ilya Kovalchuk this summer, the New Jersey Devils have steadily improved since their dreary 2016-17 performance. Ray Shero has flexed his creativity recently by bringing in both Drew Stafford and Will Butcher in hopes of bringing the team back to the playoffs, which have eluded...
Who Can Fill Devils' Positional Needs?

Who Can Fill Devils' Positional Needs?

July 31st, 2017 Despite all of the good press they have received lately, the New Jersey Devils’ roster needs more to propel the team to their first playoff appearance in six years. The forward corps looks mostly complete – with a few points of weakness – but the defense is in dire need of help. The challenge for general manager Ray Shero will be...
Devils Are A 'D' Away from Contention

Devils Are A 'D' Away from Contention

July 19th, 2017 In hockey, the best offense is a good defense, as the saying goes. A reliable team defense will lead to greater opportunities up the ice. Moreover, talented defenders are capable of creating scoring chances. After dismal scoring success in 2016-17, the New Jersey Devils are among the first teams to see the truth in the adage. The...
Devils Make Sense for Kovalchuk

Devils Make Sense for Kovalchuk

July 1st, 2017 For the first time in a long time, the New Jersey Devils seem to be in position to land one of the top free agents on the market. No, not just Kevin Shattenkirk, but also polarizing Russian winger Ilya Kovalchuk. The former $100 million man has been planning to return to the NHL for months and is now able to do so under the...
Fixes for Devils' Broken Defense

Fixes for Devils' Broken Defense

June 28th, 2017 After an entirely action-packed week, the New Jersey Devils are heading into the re-sign and free agency period with a tremendous need on the defensive side. The forward corps, with the addition of Nico Hischier, is in far better form than any time since the team’s most recent Stanley Cup run. Throw in a possible Ilya Kovalchuk reunion...
Devils Three Stars of 2016-17

Devils Three Stars of 2016-17

June 1st, 2017 With the way the New Jersey Devils performed in 2016-17, it is difficult to look back fondly on the season and identify any stars in the making. Despite the team’s 28th ranked 70 points, there was some good to come out of 2016-17. Here are the three Devils who won fans’ hearts at a time when the team’s performance was entirely...
