One of the few common threads with the New Jersey Devils over the past four-plus decades is that one rarely knows when a move is made until it is made. This evening, General Manager Tom Fitzgerald pulled a trigger on a big trade. Now we know the move. The New Jersey Devils sent Kyle Palmieri
and Travis Zajac to the New York Islanders for their first round pick in 2021, a conditional fourth round pick in 2022, left wing A.J. Greer, and forward Mason Jobst. As announced by the Devils, New Jersey will retain 50% of the remaining salaries of Zajac and Palmieri.

There is no mystery, especially if you’ve been following my work that the Rangers are planning on going after a big name this summer. Primarily a stud center to take the team to the next level of contention.
Another well known secret is that the Rangers covet and want Jack Eichel. The 24 year-old who played for David Quinn in college would be a perfect fit for the team’s plans going forward.
