Jacob Markstrom is expected to fill the long-standing void in goal for the Devils, a position that has been a challenge since Martin Brodeur's departure. Acquired from Calgary, Markstrom brings experience and the potential to stabilize the team's goaltending after a season marked by struggles. With a record of 23-23-2 and a 2.78 goals-against average last season, he aims to be a key player in helping New Jersey improve defensively. Alongside Jake Allen, he forms a solid goaltending duo that the team hopes will support its talented offensive lineup.
