Sunny Mehta said in his first media appearance as Devils GM that he wants to be competitive this year and for the future. He also said that he wants to acquire as much depth as possible and he’s done just that Trading for Lombardi (23) and Evangelista (24) Trading away a 35 year old Jacob Markstrom who’s on a decline and giving Nico Daws a season to show what he’s got Getting HIGH value back for Nemec who just wasn’t a fit here Acquiring enough depth for the Devils to run out 5 lines And not even just all that… He’s signed/traded for real AHL talent for Utica, getting 4-5 guys who were just at a point per game in the minors #NJDevils

Well I mean if Poirier isn’t listed, I’d assume Hellebuyck will at least be the backup for tomorrows game vs Dallas

Martin Brodeur from age 33-38 2.32 GAA .915 SV% 41 SO 222-133-32 2 Vezinas 3x All Star Connor Hellebuyck will be 33-38 in his time in NJ. Even though scoring has been up in the NHL overtime, can he repeat what Brodeur did in that time frame? #NJDevils

ARSENY GRITSYUK LAST 5 GAMES 5 GOALS 7 POINTS +5 #NJDevils

I believe Connor Hellebuyck first game with the Devils will be on October 28th vs Colorado Back to back, he’s ready, he’s been practicing all summer and leading up to today, on the ice 5/6 times a week, facing shots against NHL players, he was on the ice earlier today in Jersey before the game, Don said on the broadcast that he will practice with the team before they head out on the road and will travel with them. #NJDevils
