This summer will likely be a busy one for Ray Shero and company. After standing pat last offseason, the team has clearly underperformed. Not to say he’s on the hot seat, but Shero will almost certainly make a few splashes for the New Jersey Devils.
Shero has been a master at acquiring top-six players from teams in cap trouble in exchange for draft picks. We saw it in the Kyle Palmieri trade. We saw it in the Marcus Johansson deal. This summer, I believe Ray should go back to Washington and get Andre Burakovsky.
