## Resource

Sunny Mehta’s bold offseason moves are reshaping the New Jersey Devils’ future — trading Jacob Markstrom and Angus Crookshank for Jesper Boqvist, Evan Rodrigues, and Ben Steeves, while locking in Arseny Gritsyuk for three years. With cap space freed up and a young, high-IQ draft class emerging, Mehta’s analytics-driven rebuild is focused on depth, competitiveness, and building serious contenders. The core remains intact with Nico Hischier and Nico Daws, and with about $8 million to spend on a starting goalie, the Devils are poised for a new era — smart, strategic, and hungry to win.
