“Whether it’s Sunny Mehta or whoever else the Devils hire, they have work to do once they begin the job. Let’s look at the four most important tasks facing the Devils’ next GM.” [Devils on the Rush ($)]
“Mehta is smart and media savvy. But he has not yet been a general manager in the NHL and could use an experienced front-office member to support him. Insert Shanahan, who fits both the experienced front-office member criteria as well as a franchise great. He was Lou Lamoriello’s first draft selection as Devils general manager in 1987 and played his first 281 games in a Devils uniform before bookending his career in New Jersey in 2008-09.” [New Jersey Hockey Now]
Could Tyler Dellow be another good option? “Dellow also has a data-driven background, a history with the organization, and has done tidy work to help elevate the Carolina Hurricanes.” [Infernal Access ($)]
“The 2025-26 Stanley Cup Playoffs will be the first NHL post-season without all three NYC area teams (NJD, NYI, NYR) since the Devils entered the league in 1974 as the Kansas City Scouts.” [r/hockey]

Who are the league’s most underrated forwards? “This list could have easily been 30-50 players long, so unfortunately, a lot of highly deserving candidates (including the one on your favorite team) will likely be left off. Here’s my personal take on seven underrated NHL forwards. I’ve tried to include a diverse mix of player types, including top-six players that out-of-market fans have already heard of but whose talent/production they may not fully appreciate, and some under-the-radar middle-six forwards.” [The Athletic ($)]
“Nick Suzuki recorded his 100th point of the season Sunday night, becoming the first Montreal Canadiens’ skater to reach the single-season milestone in 40 years.” [Daily Faceoff]
