Équipe: 2023-24 Devils du New Jersey

Date de création initiale: 9 déc. 2022

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Key takeaways:

1. Miles Wood prices himself out of NJ. As much as I want him to stay out, paying a 4th liner north of 4mil is to much, I have a feeling he will get around what Blake Coleman got.
2. Graves and Severson also find themselves off the team. I expect Graves to take no less than a 5 year deal considering he is already 27. The Devils can’t offer the term he is most likely looking for when we have so many young guys ready to go.
3. Gristyuk and Shak make the move from the KHL to the NHL. Gristyuk has 22 points in 39 games, 12 in his last 10,. Muk 13 in 37 but his defense has seen a significant improvement. Shak has also made it very clear his goal is to make the NHL next year. They both fins themselves on the opening night roster but this is not to say they might not be sent down to the AHL if they are struggling.
4. Foote gets his opportunity to stay with the big club. He and ZAR fight for the 4th LW spot to play with McLeod and Bastian.
5. With Muk showing up, there is less pressure on Nemec to come in and perform, however he is the 1st defensive call up barring injuries.
6. This team is very young. But that is because we have so many young players ready to take the next step.
The Rookies: Gristyuk, Muk, L Hughes, Schmid.
7. We have a ton of cap space with this roster while I don’t see us losing much of what was successful this season. If they wanted to go for a huge add they can. We have the picks, prospects and young players available to make pretty much any kind of deal work.
