Devils Fire Fitzgerald After Playoff Skid | New Jersey Devils News

Fans are blasting his trades and missed chances, but his NHL connections and past success with Team USA could make him a hot candidate elsewhere — Nashville and Detroit are rumored to be in the mix.

Hughes Speed and Value Under Fire | New Jersey Devils News

Luke Hughes is the key to the New Jersey Devils’ rebound, despite last season’s criticism after his $9M contract. Though fans expected more, his elite speed—often exceeding 23 mph, even post-shoulder injury—remains a game-changer, especially in clearing the defensive zone. A new analytics study reveals Hughes actually performed like a $10M player, limiting high-danger chances and protecting the net. With a new coaching staff focused on fixing zone exits, Hughes’ best is needed now more than ever. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

LeBron James is headed to the Sixers, igniting a championship push after they also traded for Jaylen Brown — a bold move by Harris-Blitzer Sports & Entertainment to shift from the “Process” to immediate title contention.
