Perhaps more than ever, the New Jersey Devils are headed for uncharted territory.
With Lou Lamoriello's decision to leave his position as team president of the Devils to become the general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, New Jersey will be without the Rhode Island native for the first time in nearly 30 years.
Overall, Lamoriello's legacy as a hero of the New Jersey Devils is already secure. The Devils won the Stanley Cup three times under him, made the Stanley Cup Final two other times and had a regular-season record of 1,093-779-268.
