The New Jersey Devils made one of the biggest transformations this offseason. After Taylor Hall and Ray Shero both made proclamations they needed to add more talent, the Devils did just that.
The Devils won the NHL Draft Lottery and eventually selected Jack Hughes. Then, Shero traded for P.K. Subban from the Nashville Predators to give them a number-one defenseman. After that, he signed Wayne Simmonds to a one-year, prove-it deal. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, the Devils announced they traded for overseas sensation Nikita Gusev.
That’s just impressive.
