Guess we have to retire the Weekes Laser

Black ‘n Red continued their mad spending spree this morning, signing goaltender Yann Danis to a contract. Terms are unknown at this time.
Danis spent last season on Long Island, posting a 10-17-3 record in 31 games played (29 starts). The 28-year-old Quebec native posted a 2.84 GAA with a .910 save percentage.
Oh, and he also [...]

DEVILS MAKE A SIGNING!!!!!!!!!

Today the Devils signed former draft pick Ilkka Pikkarainen.
Exciting, right?
The 28-year-old forward spent the last three seasons in Finland, posting 24 goals and 13 assists for 37 points in 54 games last year. He also racked up 149 penalty minutes.
The 220 pound Pikkarainen should add a physical edge to the Devils roster, ’specially after losing [...]

Oduya wanna be a Devil?

Johnny sure does.
The Swede re-upped with Black ‘n Red for a multi-year deal worth $3-million a season.
Not bad, Mr. Lamoriello, not bad.
Oduya was sure going to be a hot commodity on the open market this July, so this Devils fan right here is definitely happy that there is some semblance of awesomeness on the blue [...]

Hey, news!

The Devils signed Erik Rasmussen today.
New Jersey, I apologize for having to break such terrible news.
But hey, on the bright side, he was immediately assigned to Lowell.
You know, the Baby Devils couldn’t get much worse anyway, so it may entirely be a moot point.
Massachusetts, I also apologize to you.
I guess that’s what happens when you [...]

Oh happy day: Martin re-signed

Tom Gulitti of the Bergen Record is today reporting that the New Jersey Devils have finally re-signed defender Paul Martin to a 3-year contract. Martin will receive $3-million this season, while being paid $4-million in 2008 and $4.5-million in 2009.
Whew.
The 26-year-old blueliner was slated to become an unrestricted free agent next summer.
Oh, and we all [...]

And we have a signing!

Hey, why not keep the parade going, eh?
In a move that likely solidifies the fourth line, the New Jersey Devils have announced the signing of former New York Islander Arron Asham to a one year, $700,000 contract.
The 29-year-old winger posted 11 goals and 12 assists for 23 points in 80 games with the Isles last [...]

Oh thank you God. Now let’s get to work [...]

Devils lose Fahey, Brooks, add Moran

Exit Jim Fahey and Alex Brooks.
Enter Ian Moran.
The seldom-used Fahey has split to the Chicago Blackhawks while Alex Brooks has inked a contract with the St. Louis Blues.
With the loss of two mediocre defenders, Louie Lams kicked it into high gear, adding utility man Ian Moran.
So, uh, that’s like five billion semi-average defenders now, right?
Either [...]

The stockpiling continues: Devils add Grand-Pierre

Okay, I think the Devils are attempting to carry the most mediocre defensemen in the history of the NHL.
Seriously.
So, let’s add Jean-Luc Grand-Pierre to the mix.
J-L G-P (that was awesome) has inked a contract with the Devils, as reported by the Hockey DB. (link opens in new window)
The 30-year-old utility man spent last season in [...]
