This offseason, in particular, will be crucial for the New Jersey Devils, and they must address many areas to get them back into the playoffs. General manager Tom Fitzgerald and newly-appointed head coach Sheldon Keefe have a lot on their plate to get their talented team to return to form this summer. This has been the Devils' most glaring hole for years — they haven't had an elite goaltender since Cory Schneider. Only two have played more than 80 games for the team — in 2021-22, seven different goalies started games — all due to unlucky veteran acquisitions like Corey Crawford and Jonathan Bernier, untimely injuries, or just a lack of true talent.
