Inside the Devils’ New Mindset | Speak of the Devils

Sam Kasan and Amanda Stein discuss the Devils’ changing mindset, their commitment to defense and the expectations inside the locker room. Amanda shares why the team’s responses to a loss in Colorado and a win over St. Louis stood out to her.

They also examine Connor Hellebuyck’s influence, his tandem with Jake Allen, Evan Rodrigues’ leadership and Arseny Gritsyuk’s fit alongside Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt. Plus, accepting roles, Brenden Dillon’s professionalism and a behind-the-scenes look at the Hometown Remix jersey launch.
