There\u2019s a former first-round pick on waivers. Amid injuries for the New Jersey Devils<\/a>, I wondered if he would be worth a waiver-claim. But, the Devils don\u2019t need another reclamation project. They need someone who they know can produce.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where the Devils trade targets come in, in the links below. And if you ask me, they require the center more than anything.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, why the former first-rounder was cut, Team Canada\u2019s decision on Connor Bedard, and Marion Gaborik dishes complicated relationship with former NYR coach.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s do that hockey.<\/p>\n

Devils Trade Rumors & News<\/p>\n

New Jersey Hockey Now: The Devils received a trio of forwards back from injury last night against the Tampa Bay Lightning<\/a>. Perhaps, that\u2019s why they were out of sync. As they got their legs under them, the Devils fell to the Lightning 5-1 in regulation.<\/p>\n

Devils Rink Report: No one is sounding the alarms. The Devils are in a very good way so far this season, and the returning injured players is a huge boost. However, perhaps they need one or two more pieces. Here are two Nashville Predators Jeff Marek says Tom Fitzgerald should target in a Devils trade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jeff Marek joined me last week to discuss what the Devils should do with their goaltending amid struggles for Jacob Markstrom, and strong play by Jake Allen. Check it out here \ud83d\udc47\ud83c\udffc<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Pittsburgh Hockey Now: The Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a> have made the decision to cut former first-round selection, Philip Tomasino. He hit waivers yesterday with the intention to send him to the American Hockey League, but\u2026<\/p>\n

Montreal Hockey Now: The Montreal Canadiens<\/a>, who similarly injury-laden like the Devils, could look to pluck Tomasino off the waiver wire.<\/p>\n

Philly Hockey Now: The Philadelphia Flyers<\/a> could soon be a problem with so much young talent, as another one of their top prospects, Porter Martone, is making an early case for the Hobey Baker.<\/p>\n

Chicago Hockey Now: Connor Bedard is scorching hot right now. However, the Chicago Blackhawks<\/a> star could be left off Team Canada due to a lack of \u201cbig-game experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
