Coming into the preseason, it seemed like the New Jersey Devils defense was set. Take a look at the lines they have already in place.
Then, cuts came to camp on Sunday. There were some interesting choices. Mikhail Maltsev wasn’t given a chance to continue his attempt to make the team. Joey Anderson and Brett Seney both got cut despite a long stint in the NHL last season.
The rest of the cuts we should have seen coming. The players left on the roster include most of the regulars, then about six players fighting for the final spot on the roster.
