Sources from the New Jersey Devils Client Experience Team today confirmed to me that the season ticketing distribution and entry procedures will be significantly altered for the 2016-17 season.
The crux of the change is the distribution of a credit-card like entry card, I believe named a Cricket Card, which will be used for entry into games. One card will be issued per seat. This will replace as the default ticket method the beloved, by many, commemorative ticket stock.

For Season Ticket Members who desire printed tickets, this traditional option is still available, but there is a $25 payment required to receive printed tickets.
