"Devils' Role in Tanev Trade and NHL Deadline Deals"

The New Jersey Devils played a small role in facilitating the trade of defenseman Chris Tanev to the Dallas Stars, which could indicate potential activity for the team leading up to the trade deadline. The Devils sent unsigned draft choice goalie Cole Brady to the Calgary Flames, who then traded him to the Stars, while also retaining 50% of Tanev’s 2023-24 salary in exchange for Dallas’ fourth-round pick in 2026. Additionally, the Flames acquired defenseman prospect Artem Grushnikov and draft picks from the Stars in the deal.
