This week I learned that #NJDevils HC Sheldon Keefe made adjustments to his team's play in the defensive zone. Today, I asked him how long it takes players to work out the kinks and make everything second nature, so they aren't overthinking their responsibilities.

I’m excited to introduce something new alongside my work with The Hockey News. My Substack, The Devils Narrative, will debut this week. Expect magazine-style storytelling, exclusive Q&A’s, and conversations that deserve more than a headline. On tap is a Q&A with Evangelista, an interview with Mantha, and a big read where you’ll hear from Rodrigues, Brown, Noesen & Dillon.
