The New Jersey Devils franchise began in 1974 as the Kansas City Scouts before moving to Denver in 1976, where they became the Colorado Rockies. The team relocated to New Jersey in 1982 and adopted the Devils name.
The Devils play at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey after initially competing in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
For the 2026/27 season, Nico Hischier serves as captain, while Jack Hughes anchors the offense as the Devils enter the season with high expectations.
On October 23, 2026, the New Jersey Devils acquired Connor Hellebuyck in a trade with the Winnipeg Jets filling a key gap in their roster and bringing renewed optimism to the season.
