The New Jersey Devils made a series of amazing moves this offseason. It started with the eight-year deal that Jesper Bratt signed, paying him less than $8 million per season. It continued with a similar eight-year deal for Timo Meier, who was given about $1 million more than Bratt per season. After long-term deals were given to Nico Hischier and Jack Hughes, most of the forward core is locked up.
The defensive core is in a similar shape. While the Devils were forced to say goodbye to Damon Severson and Ryan Graves this offseason, they have Dougie Hamilton, John Marino, and Jonas Siegenthaler locked up for years to come.
