“With the preseason about to conclude, we have a pretty good idea of what New Jersey Devils head coach Sheldon Keefe is thinking for line combos and defense pairs to begin the regular season. Similar to last preseason, Keefe has been relatively consistent with the line combos and pairs he’s used. Let’s analyze each unit as we get
ready to begin the 2025-26 campaign.” [Devils on the Rush]

A trade:
Filip Gustavsson gets a five-year deal:
“The race for the Stanley Cup is wide open, but the eventual champ will come out of the Western Conference, according to a panel of NHL.com writers and editors. A total of 15 staff members made their preseason predictions and five picked the Vegas Golden Knights to win the Cup, four picked the Dallas Stars and three picked the Colorado Avalanche. One staffer picked the Edmonton Oilers, while the only Eastern Conference teams to get a pick were the two-time defending Cup champion Florida Panthers and the Carolina Hurricanes.” [NHL.com]
“The NHL pre-season is just about wrapped up, and for the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning, it ended on a violent note. Florida and Tampa Bay played each other three times in a row to end their respective pre-season campaigns. With each game, the contests became more violent, and the final contest ended with more than 300 penalty minutes.” [The Hockey News]
“If you haven’t kept up with the NHL in the past few months, don’t fret, we’ve got you covered. Here’s a chance to catch up on everything that has happened — the hirings, firings, signings, trades and significant rules changes thanks to a new collective bargaining agreement. It’s all in our guide to the 2025-26 season for lapsed fans.” [ESPN]
