Todd Cordell: New Jersey Devils Sign Ben Lovejoy

Cheap enough that I don't mind

He'll be on the top pair.

Not a bad signing. Fills a hole. Not gonna do too much that's flashy but hell be solid. "Not a sexy D-man"

Would have rather tried wiz, Shultz but Atleast it's cheap. Here comes Vern fiddler

Hopefully he is Merrills replacement and the search is still ongoing for Lars replacement. He might play 19 minutes a night but he plays those 19 no where near as well as larsson I would imagine still a glaring hole but we knew this wouldn't be easy to fill.

Don't like the Fiddler signing. Not one bit.

1.25 for a year. 4th liner if JJ doesn't break something

I guess we need one contract to leave open for expansion

That said, I don't hate the deal. He will do fine as the 2nd or 3rd pairing defense-man

Insurance in case Zacha isn't ready and JJ has to play 3rd line. Silver lining is we probably have seen the end of the Brian Gionta era.

Talk about spending money for the sake of spending lol might not be a lot but these guys are going to have such a small impact it's ridiculous lol but hey we have hall

Is it two way?

But a 36 year old guy? Thought we were going for speed?

I like the fiddler signing for the fourth line. I think he does PK and good on FO, but i may be confusing him with someone else there.

Good PK guy now that Gio is probably gone. Can't have a room of 20 year olds

Our 4th line was brutal and for one year 1.25 mil he can hang in the press box when everyone is actually healthy.

I would have loved Matt Moulson.

CORRECTION!! MATT MARTIN

He better spend some of that on a nice suit. Don't need our guys dressed like bums in the pressbox.

Not a fan of either

He's got big shoes to fill. Adam was well dressed during the PDB years.

No more Warsofsky or Schlemko.

Depending on the dollars could be a bargain though, very good on the PP last year.
