Assessing The New Jersey Devils' 2025 Offseason: Trades, Expectations, & Next Steps (Ft. Matthew Blittner)

Team USA was shorthanded against Team Sweden on Monday. It's been revealed that Charlie McAvoy will not play in the championship game. However, it's widely speculated that Quinn Hughes will take his position. Team USA will play Team Canada for the 4 Nations Face-Off championship and will need as many bodies as possible. Noah Hanifin and Sam Bennett spoke about the importance of this tournament and what it means to their respective countries.Recorded live from TD GardenInterview soundbites: Noah Hanifin and Sam BennettFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LODevils?sid=YouTubeLocked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHLSubscribe to Locked On Devils!Follow me on the "X" app: @treymatt4Follow the show on the "X" app: @LockedOnDevilsListen to Locked On Devils: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnDevilsFor your next listen, check out the Locked On NHL podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.

After an intense battle with Team Canada, expectations were high for Team USA against Team Sweden. Unfortunately, USA ended up losing 2-1. New Jersey Devils star Jesper Bratt scored the game-winning goal and Samuel Errson was strong in net. Nothing was on the line, but USA's performance was lackluster compared to Saturday's game. They're also dealing with a few injuries which might be concerning.Recorded live from TD GardenInterview soundbite: Jesper BrattFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LODevils?sid=YouTubeLocked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHLSubscribe to Locked On Devils!Follow me on the "X" app: @treymatt4Follow the show on the "X" app: @LockedOnDevilsListen to Locked On Devils: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnDevilsFor your next listen, check out the Locked On NHL podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.

The first game at TD Garden has ended. Team Canada defeated Team Finland and punched their ticket to the 4 Nations championship game on Thursday. Canada had a sense of urgency right from the opening face off. They scored three early goals in the first period and didn't look back. Finland fought until the end, but their efforts fell short. Captain Sidney Crosby spoke about the importance of treating each matchup like a game seven. I spoke with him and Brayden Point postgame.Recorded live from TD GardenInterview soundbites: Sidney Crosby and Brayden PointFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LODevils?sid=YouTubeLocked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHLSubscribe to Locked On Devils!Follow me on the "X" app: @treymatt4Follow the show on the "X" app: @LockedOnDevilsListen to Locked On Devils: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnDevilsFor your next listen, check out the Locked On NHL podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.

I had the chance to watch New Jersey Devils prospect Mikhail Yegorov. The Boston University Terriers were playing against the Providence Friars and Yegorov recorded his first collegiate shutout. The Russian native continues to impress during his first semester in Beantown. I conducted one-on-one interviews with Yegorov and head coach Jay Pandolfo postgame. So far, 4 Nations Face-Off has been a huge success. It seems like hockey fans are enjoying the product.Recorded live from Agganis ArenaInterview soundbites: Mikhail Yegorov and Jay PandolfoFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LODevils?sid=YouTubeLocked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHLSubscribe to Locked On Devils!Follow me on the "X" app: @treymatt4Follow the show on the "X" app: @LockedOnDevilsListen to Locked On Devils: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnDevilsFor your next listen, check out the Locked On NHL podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.

Jonas Siegenthaler got injured in the game against the Pittsburgh Penguins a few days ago. He left after barely playing three minutes. Sheldon Keefe said postgame that Siegenthaler will "miss some time". However, the severity of the injury was never revealed.
