The New Jersey Devils had quite a few contracts to sign this offseason, including the entire fourth line. They went in three different directions with what is now formerly the BMW line. Miles Wood, Nathan Bastian, and Michael McLeod all ended up unrestricted free agents after the Devils denied qualifying offers to the latter two. Wood signed a long-term deal with Colorado that the Devils were never matching. However, they re-signed McLeod and Bastian to deals that likely come in less than what they would have gotten in arbitration.
The Devils gave McLeod a one-year deal.
