On Thursday, those hopes were crushed when New Jersey allowed the permitting process for a new facility to move forward. The Passaic Valley Sewerage Commission says the $180 million backup power project is needed to prevent another power failure like the one from Superstorm Sandy in 2012...

The 2023-24 Devils and Luck
Welcome to my yearly post about luck! Each year, I like to take a look at how lucky or unlucky the New Jersey Devils were in the regular season. Of course, luck is a somewhat subjective phenomenon, so it isn’t something that can be completely quantifiable via numbers and statistics. Perspective will change your opinion on who is lucky or not. For example, we as Devils fans might think the Rangers were lucky just to make it to the Conference Finals this year given their goaltender essentially carried them. However, Rangers fans might think they were unlucky given they were only two games from a Stanley Cup Finals appearance and were the President’s Trophy winners.
