In last week’s article, I commented on the state of the prospect pool and I asked for three things at the draft: Offensive Wingers, Centers, and a Goalie. Let’s look at the results.

In 2026-27, McKenzie will be playing for the Penn State Nittany Lions. For such a late pick in the draft, there is actually a lot to like […]
New Jersey Devils Select Luke Wilfley at 172nd Overall in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft

In the high-scoring juniors league, Wilfrey managed 9 goals and 15 points in 66 games. So, what […]
Devils Select Daniil Rusakovich with the 149th pick in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft
After trading back once again from pick 140 with Colorado, the Devils picked Rusakovich with the 149th pick. I like the idea of sliding back a few spots to pick up some more lottery tickets (also picking up pick 222), it is something that has reaped rewards for Carolina and it seems Sunny has a […]

He sent 35 to Chicago in exchange for the 37th and 119th picks. When that 37th pick came up, the Devils selected Matias […]
New Jersey Devils Select Alexander Command at 12th Overall in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft
People wondered if it would be Ethan Belchetz, the big winger. I thought Sunny Mehta might take Nikita Klepov, the high-scoring winger. But the New Jersey Devils went in a different direction with the selection of Alexander Command at 12th overall in the 2026 NHL Draft. The 11th ranked European skater, whose rankings ranged from […]

Could Sunny Mehta and/or Sheldon Keefe Look To Their Past to Address the Devils’ Future?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. Player X is a free agent. Player X can sign with any team. Player X ultimately decides to sign with Team Y because the GM or head coach of the team is a former teammate. Or they’re from the same hometown and came up through juniors together. […]

After Colliton: Who Should be the Offensive Assistant for the Devils?
Two days ago, the New Jersey Devils made a surprising announcement: offensive assistant and power play coach Jeremy Colliton has left the organization to pursue other “business opportunities” unrelated to present vacancies around the National Hockey League.
