New Jersey Devils Can Focus On Simon Nemec and Luke Hughes Next Season
With free agent frenzy quickly approaching, the New Jersey Devils may look to do some cost-cutting measures on defense. There are several reasons why spending less on the blue line makes sense. John Marino and Dougie Hamilton proved to be the offensive and defensive stalwarts on the right-handed side. Marino has been the two-way phenom that has proven to be key since joining the Devils. (Still can’t believe they got him for Ty Smith and a 2023 3rd-round pick.)
There are options in house that won’t cost much to replace some of the other players who are unrestricted free agents. It starts with the superstar prospects.
