Tuesday afternoon was the last chance for the Devils to qualify their restricted free agents. With a good chunk of players being eligible, the Devils needed to determine who they fault was important to retain and who was on the chopping block and time to walk away from. According to the Devils Twitter, they extended offers to Joseph Blandisi, Blake Coleman, Stefan Noesen, Blake Pietila, Kevin Rooney, Ben Thomson, Vojtech Mozik, and Damon Severson.
What to make of it?
A notable, and somewhat unexpected, player who failed to receive a qualifying offer is Beau Bennett.
