New Jersey Devils Players Possibility Of Being Traded This Season

The New Jersey Devils are sellers this season. It’s been that way more often than not. It seems like every season it becomes open season on the Devils upcoming unrestricted free agents. Last season, everyone was available. The Devils ended up trading Blake Coleman, Taylor Hall, Wayne Simmonds, Andy Greene, Sami Vatanen, and Louis Domingue before the trade deadline was over. They listened to offers on Kyle Palmieri and Travis Zajac (likely among others), but they decided to keep at least some of the veterans on the roster.

This season, the Devils have an insane amount of trade candidates thanks to 10 contracts going into unrestricted free agency at the end of this season.

This article won’t look at every single possible trade candidate but instead will only look at the ones who have been in rumors. Aaron Dell might get traded, as could Connor Carrick, but there’s no smoke around them right now.

This is looking at the main trade candidates on the team, and it will give a percentage chance they have to leave. There are many factors that could keep a player on the Devils. Maybe the team thinks they have a chance to be a part of the future. It’s possible the Devils want another look before deciding if they want a future with said player. Nothing is 100 percent in this sport. If the deal doesn’t make sense for the Devils, Tom Fitzgerald won’t make it.

With that said, there will be no player on this list that’s “100 percent getting traded” and there is no player that will be “100 percent not getting traded”. There is always leeway. That being said, the Devils are open for business once again this season. With just two weeks until the NHL trade deadline, and with the Buffalo Sabres making the first deal sending Eric Staal to the Montreal Canadiens to kick things off, we look at the possibility of every Devils trade candidate playing for another team by April 13th.
