Devils Lock Down Hischier for 5 Years | New Jersey Devils News

Jul 1, 2026 · 2 min

The New Jersey Devils just locked down captain Nico Hischier with a five-year extension, securing his future through 2032 and keeping him alongside stars Jack Hughes and Timo Meier. Hischier’s consistent production—25+ goals and 65+ points for four straight seasons—and elite two-way play make him a cornerstone. With GM Sunny Mehta leading the charge, the Devils traded away key pieces to clear cap space and draft picks, now focusing on filling the goalie void with around $9.7M in flexibility—potentially targeting big names like Hellebuyck or Bobrovsky. The offseason is shaping up to be pivotal as they aim to rebuild toward playoff contention.
