The Metropolitan Division has undergone significant changes ahead of the 2026-27 NHL season, affecting each team differently. The Carolina Hurricanes, fresh off their Stanley Cup victory, have made minimal moves, notably losing veteran goalie Frederik Andersen while maintaining a strong roster. In contrast, the Pittsburgh Penguins have added several players, including Hendrix Lapierre and Andrei Kuzmenko, while parting ways with Anthony Mantha and others after a surprising playoff appearance. As the offseason progresses, the Devils will assess their position within this evolving division landscape.
