Calgary and New Jersey made the first big trade of the offseason on Wednesday as they traded Jacob Markstrom (31.25% salary retained) for Kevin Bahl and a 2025 1st-round pick. The 23-year-old towering defender in Bahl appeared in all 82 games for New Jersey in 2023-24, picking up a goal, 10 assists, 82 PIMs and 63 SOG.
Bahl had two goals, six assists, 27 SOG, 35 PIMs and a +4 plus/minus through 42 games in 2022-23 and has signed a two-year, $2.1 million contract extension ($1,050,000 AAV). The towering 23-year-old defenseman was Arizona's 2018 second-round pick (55th overall) and will be entering his fourth season in New Jersey in 2023-24. Through his previous three, he has three goals, 11 assists, 48 SOG and 45 PIMs through 66 career games played.
Bahl has a goal, three assists, 14 SOG, 19 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 28 games this season but will be a healthy scratch Tuesday as the Devils' take on Tampa Bay. The 22-year-old will be replaced by Branden Smith in the Devils' lineup.
Bahl has a goal, three assists, 14 SOG, 19 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 27 games played this season but will be a healthy scratch Thursday vs. Washington. Brendan Smith's return to the lineup after being a healthy scratch for six-games is the reason Bahl heads to the press box.

Bahl will head back to the press box as a healthy scratch after playing 15:00 TOI and picking up an assist in the Devils' previous contest vs. Dallas. The 22-year-old towering defenseman will hope to be back in the lineup soon so he can improve on his one goal, and two points in five games he has collected this season.
Bahl will make his second appearance with the Devils after being recalled from Utica (AHL) after collecting one assist and two PIMs in a quick three-game stint with the club. Bahl previously had a short three-game showing with New Jersey this year where he failed to pick up any points but also had two PIMs.
