A world class blog for Jersey's team: the New Jersey Devils
We have all heard the arguments that the Devils should trade their top pick this year. If the Devils are in a win-now position, why would they want to take their picks and wait years for them to develop? But there is an alternative to trading away every draft pick worth anything in a deal: […]

If Sunny Mehta and the New Jersey Devils are serious about contending in the 2025-26 season, one thing they will need to do is get creative and add more offensive firepower upfront. The Devils have been trending in the wrong direction in terms of offensive production over the last few seasons. They averaged 3.52 goals […]

As we get deeper into the offseason and the NHL draft gets closer and closer, I’ve started to think about how I want the New Jersey Devils to attack the 2026 edition of the draft. Holding the 12th overall pick, new general manager Sunny Mehta seemingly has a few options at his disposal. He can […]
Here are your links for today: Devils Links “Everybody knows the Hughes brothers want to play together. Maybe Jack wants to come to Minnesota now to join forces with Quinn rather than wait or have it the other way around. It would be complicated, though, because it’s hard to believe Jack would leave their youngest […]
Good afternoon, Devils fans and hockey fans, and welcome to another All About the Jersey draft profile. Today, we are going to look at someone who might fly under the radar a bit.

Howdy everyone, as Chris said last week, welcome to draft/prospect season. As we get deeper into these profiles, you will see there really seems to be no consensus beyond the top 2 (and even that is now being debated after the lottery). What I do know is there are five or six defenseman likely to […]

Two more free agents in the New Jersey Devils system are forwards Xavier Parent and defenseman Topias Vilen. While both are restricted free agents, that’s where a lot of the similarities end. Parent plays up front in a scoring role for Utica after not hearing his name called in his draft year while Vilen was […]
With the restricted free agents profiled for this upcoming offseason, its time to shift our attention to the unrestricted free agents. The New Jersey Devils didn’t have a lot of pending UFAs to begin with going into the offseason. The fact that the two I’m going to write about this week are probably the two […]

In this this post we look at five Devils prospects who rose their stocks the most this past season. David Rozsival A late birthday when drafted in the 5th round of last year’s NHL entry draft, David Rozsival is still only 18-years-old.

We continue our series on the New Jersey Devils’ pending free agents today with a look at Paul Cotter. During his time in the Garden State, Cotter has flashed some brilliance, flashed some ineffectiveness, and to his credit has become a staple of the Devils’ lineup for two seasons now. But should that continue into […]

16 nations are participating in the 2026 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championships, which take place this year in Zurich and Fribourg, Switzerland.
