Garden State of Hockey- Episode 51: See Ya, 2019-20 Devils

This week, we talked a little about the implications of the playoff format, specifically on the teams that won’t get the opportunity to play more than five games (at most) from now until whenever next season begins. Yes, this obviously includes the Devils and we talk about what they need to accomplish now that they know the offseason is here. Pierre Lebrun of The Athletic indicated that the coaching search may be down to four names (which include Alain Nasreddine) but mentioned that there’s still no clarity on Tom’s Fitzgerald’s status as interim general manager.

Additionally, we went through our site awards and dove a little deeper on which players were nominated for what and which ones deserved their accolades. Let us know where you agree and disagree as we as a collective begin putting this horrendous nightmare of a season behind us.

To help you forget, happy 20 year anniversary to this beauty:

We eagerly await lottery news with bated breath but for now, thanks for listening, everyone!
