The New Jersey Devils are moving on from their now former captain Andy Greene. He won’t have to go far, as he’s headed to the New York Islanders in exchange for a 2nd-round pick and defenseman David Quenneville.
An instant reaction to the trade is it’s a major win for the Devils. Greene, like Ben Lovejoy last season, was probably in his last games in a New Jersey Devils uniform. It’s a little different, because Greene is one of two players that was still around from the Devils last run to the Stanley Cup Finals back in 2012.
