Yikes: The New Jersey Devils need to STAY AWAY from Free Agency in 2026
Yikes: The New Jersey Devils need to STAY AWAY from Free Agency in 2026

Charlie Coyle's recent contract extension with the Columbus Blue Jackets—a six-year deal at $6 million per year despite Coyle being 34—serves as a warning sign for the New Jersey Devils about the dangers of overpaying in free agency. Zach Berman urges the Devils to steer clear of such costly contracts when shopping for players in 2026, emphasizing that the team is in a much better position now with a savvy new general manager leading their front office restructuring. The landscape of NHL management is also shifting, with news about potential GM hires in Nashville and Vancouver signaling wider changes—but Zach Berman notes that the Devils' recent hire of Sunny Mehta might be the most impressive move among teams this offseason. Analyzing the upcoming free agent market, Zach Berman highlights how several available players bring significant risk and are likely to command overpriced deals. Names like Darren Raddysh, who had a breakout season at age 30, and Rasmus Andersson, who is coming off an uneven run, may look tempting but are "landmine" contracts waiting to happen. Even forwards like Alex Tuch—despite strong numbers in Buffalo—are likely too expensive to justify bringing in. The majority of top free agents either do not fit the Devils' needs or are expected to re-sign with their current teams. Instead of chasing risky free agents, Zach Berman recommends the Devils focus on internal roster moves and targeting trade opportunities, especially as key players like Nico Hischier approach extension talks. The cautionary tale of Charlie Coyle’s deal underscores the danger of long-term commitments to aging players, and the Devils should focus on sustainability and flexibility rather than splashy signings that could impede their progress. Finally, Zach Berman discusses coaching changes around the league, most notably the ongoing saga in Edmonton where the Oilers are interviewing Bruce Cassidy despite still having Kris Knoblauch under contract. Zach Berman argues that, should Knoblauch become available, he would be an excellent candidate for the Devils’ head coach position. However, the larger theme remains: while other franchises make questionable moves, the Devils are being urged to remain patient, prudent, and to take advantage of opportunities born from other teams’ mistakes.

Should the Edmonton Oilers Hire Bruce Cassidy? Breaking Down the potential Coaching Search
Should the Edmonton Oilers Hire Bruce Cassidy? Breaking Down the potential Coaching Search

Should Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch keep his job after a first-round exit to the Anaheim Ducks? Nick Zararis breaks down the full case: the numbers, the politics, and the candidates waiting in the wings to give you the most honest answer you'll hear this offseason. What's covered: Has Kris Knoblauch actually gotten worse results from the Oilers each season? The 3-year even strength decline, explained in plain numbers Why firing a coach in the NHL is more of a political decision than a hockey one — and what that means for General Manager Stan Bowman Bruce Cassidy: Is the Stanley Cup-winning coach really available, and would he actually take the Edmonton job? John Cooper: Why he might be the best coach in the NHL right now — and why that still might not matter for the Oilers Connor McDavid's contract situation in 2027 and how the coaching decision this summer could directly affect it Why Knoblauch's .624 points percentage makes him the best Oilers coach of the 21st century, and why that might not be enough to save his job The Oilers went to back-to-back Stanley Cup Finals in 2024 and 2025. They got bounced in Round 1 in 2026.
