For the past few seasons, New Jersey Devils fans learned to trust and respect General Manager Tom Fitzgerald. The GM has made some very savvy business moves to build this team up from a bottom feeder to a contender.
The sign and trade of Damon Severson to the Columbus Blue Jackets brought the 80th overall pick to New Jersey. With July 1st coming around the bend, the Devils are already preparing for free agent frenzy. Another asset the Devils could look to move prior to then is Ryan Graves, another defenseman unlikely to return.
