He Devils They have done a great deal, acquiring the goalkeeper Jacob Markstrom of the Calgary flames.
In exchange for Markstrom, the Devils send a defenseman Kevin Bahl and a first-round pick (top 10 protected) in the 2025 NHL Draft for Calgary.
Markstrom, 34, is a two-time All-Star and has finished in the top five in Vezina Trophy voting in two of the last five seasons.
He had a 2.78 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 48 games for the Flames this season.
His best season came in 2021-22, when he had a 2.22 GAA and finished second in the Vezina Trophy, losing to the Rangers’ goaltender. Igor Shesterkin.
Markstrom is under contract through the 2025-26 season and earns $6 million a year.
However, the Flames will retain 31.25 percent of his remaining contract, meaning the salary cap hit for the Devils will be $4.125 million per season.
