Devils' Pending UFAs: Who Stays and Who Goes?

Devils' Pending UFAs: Who Stays and Who Goes?

April 16th, 2019 Finishing the season 31-41-10 is not how the New Jersey Devils envisioned their season going. It paid off in the end as they won the NHL Draft Lottery last week and will select first overall at the Entry Draft in June. That'll go a long way in helping them rebuild their roster, whether it's either Jack Hughes or Kaapo Kakko they select....
Devils See Stafford’s Value is More Than Just Stats

Devils See Stafford’s Value is More Than Just Stats

April 8th, 2019 Drew Stafford’s value to the New Jersey Devils can’t be found in a box score. It won’t show up in the pregame notes and you won’t see it in any advanced stat breakdown. The value of having Stafford, a 33-year-old veteran presence who has an NCAA title, and a World Juniors gold medal on his resume next to the 841 NHL games that...
The Evander Kane Trade Revisited

The Evander Kane Trade Revisited

February 8th, 2018 It’s been nearly three years since the Buffalo Sabres and Winnipeg Jets made their blockbuster, eight-player deal. The Feb. 11, 2015 trade, a few weeks before the 2015 NHL Trade Deadline, involved players, prospects and a first-round pick. At the time, the Sabres were in 30th place in the NHL standings, while the Jets were jockeying...
Devils Score a Touchdown with Stafford Signing

Devils Score a Touchdown with Stafford Signing

October 22nd, 2017 Sometimes in the NHL when a player signs with a team they just seamlessly fit it with what the style of how they want to play on the ice and that’s exactly what the New Jersey Devils have gotten when they signed Drew Stafford to a one-year/$800,000 deal late this summer (August 25). Strangely they brought in Jimmy Hayes on a PTO two...
Devils' Preseason Progress Report

Devils' Preseason Progress Report

September 29th, 2017 On Wednesday night, the New Jersey Devils played their last preseason game, beating the Washington Capitals again, 4-1. Last week, they beat them by the same score during their first preseason game. The Devils haven’t been doing too bad during the preseason, winning five out of seven and losing one in overtime. With a total of 25 goals...
Projecting the Devils Final Roster

Projecting the Devils Final Roster

September 26th, 2017 The New Jersey Devils played two preseason games on Monday night, one against the Ottawa Senators and one against the New York Islanders. They came away with an 8-1 win against the Sens and a 3-0 loss to the Isles. Fortunately, the roster that won mainly consisted of NHL starters while the roster that lost was basically an AHL team with...
Devils Game Two Observations

Devils Game Two Observations

September 21st, 2017 The New Jersey Devils played their second preseason game on Wednesday night against the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. The Devils left New York with a 4-3 loss in overtime but it was not all bad. The offense stepped up and scored three goals while the goaltending looked good despite allowing four goals. The real problem for...
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...
Boston Bruins Round Table: Drew Stafford Signs With Devils

Boston Bruins Round Table: Drew Stafford Signs With Devils

August 28th, 2017 When the Boston Bruins failed to re-sign Drew Stafford, despite his reported interest in returning to the team who traded for him at the 2017 trade deadline, it immediately looked like a misstep by the Bruins management team. While it would have been understandable if Stafford was seeking a deal worth north of $1 million or even $2...
Bruins Round Table: Free Agency 2017

Bruins Round Table: Free Agency 2017

June 28th, 2017 After losing a player to the Vegas Golden Knights, it’s safe to say that every team has some needs to fill. Free Agency is upon us as a frenzy of signings will likely come about on July 1st. The Bruins have their own players to sign before Saturday with roughly $13 million in cap space. Players like Ryan Spooner, Noel Acciardi,...
The NHL's Hidden Musical Talent

The NHL's Hidden Musical Talent

June 25th, 2017 There's a reason why most pro hockey players don't often partake in extracurricular activities outside of the rink. These guys are some of the most gifted athletes in the world, who are so dedicated to their craft that anything that doesn't involve a stick and a puck is just unnecessary noise. They're also making millions of dollars to...
Bruins Should Re-sign Stafford Under Right Circumstances

Bruins Should Re-sign Stafford Under Right Circumstances

May 29th, 2017 The 2016-17 season looked like it would be a failure for Drew Stafford. Coming off of a 38-point season with the Winnipeg Jets, Stafford hoped to carry that success into this season, a contract year for the 31-year-old. However, 40 games into the season, the right winger had buried just four goals and tallied nine assists for a...
Bruins Have Tough Free Agent Decisions

Bruins Have Tough Free Agent Decisions

May 15th, 2017 The NHL's 2017 free agent class isn't anything to sneeze at by any means. However, when it comes to the Boston Bruins, their free agent group is just the opposite. B's General Manager Don Sweeney will certainly have his hands full this offseason. It's honestly Sweeney's biggest offseason to date considering how the front office used...
Bruins Need Bargains from Free Agency

Bruins Need Bargains from Free Agency

May 15th, 2017 From a value standpoint, Dominic Moore and Riley Nash were the Boston Bruins' best free agent signings of 2016. David Backes may have grabbed the headlines (and the cash), but it was Moore and Nash who had the biggest impact-to-cost ratio. The two were stalwarts in Boston's bottom six, key cogs of the league's top-ranked penalty kill and...
Bruins Deserved First Round Playoff Exit

Bruins Deserved First Round Playoff Exit

April 24th, 2017 If you’re a hockey fan in Boston, then you better get ready for finger-pointing season. With an overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators in Game 6, the Bruins dropped all three of their playoff games on home ice, as well as their playoff lives. This year, however, the blame is healthily distributed amongst the entire team, with a tip of...
