It’s here! It’s finally here!
It’s really happening!

Tomorrow at 9am #NJDevils players start rolling through Prudential Center for Media Day.
We’ve made it!
A nugget in here from Corey Masisak on the organization’s vaccination status: “Multiple people inside the Devils organization have indicated the entire active roster has received the COVID-19 vaccination.” [The Athletic ($)]
Dougie Hamilton on the team’s podcast talking about signing with the Devils and more: “It was a pretty easy decision in the end.” [NHL]
As you’ve probably heard by now, Travis Zajac is retiring from the NHL. He signed a one-day contract to wrap up his career as a Devil. [NHL]
Ah, man...
From draft day with his dad to becoming one himself. And all the moments in between that were Made in Jersey.

Two organizations taking hard lines on vaccination status:
Of note: Lamoriello mentioned there was one (1) minor leaguer who wouldn't get vaccinated. Plan is for said player to play elsewhere this season #Isles
— Mollie Walker (@MollieeWalkerr) September 21, 2021
The #CBJ are drawing a hard line with COVID vaccinations: Assistant coach Sylvain Lefebvre was fired Sept. 13 for refusing to be vaccinated and now depth forward Zac Rinaldo isn't being invited to NHL training camp for the same reason.
