Tom Fitzgerald, General Manager of the New Jersey Devils, joins John Shannon and Daren Millard on 100% Hockey to talk about what’s driving his team’s strong start to the season. Fitzgerald breaks down the elements behind the early success — from the Devils’ speed and structure to the impact of new head coach Sheldon Keefe and the familiarity that’s starting to take hold within the group.

He also discusses the continued rise of the Hughes brothers, including Luke Hughes’ new contract, and how their growth has helped define the team’s identity. The conversation wraps with a look ahead to Team USA’s 2026 Olympic plans and how the American program is shaping up on the international stage.
