Devils eyeing Hossa, Redden?

Devils GM Lou Lamoriello might try to make a big splash once the doors to free agency swing open at noon ET on Tuesday, reports the Bergen Record.
According to the paper, the Devils are expected to pursue right wing Marian Hossa, and defensemen Wade Redden, Brian Campbell and Jason Smith.

"All of that goes on behind the scenes and we don't talk about it," Lamoriello told the Record. "If we can do something that makes our team better, we'll do that. You try to do that during the regular season, but you can't always do it."

The Devils have just under $19 million in available salary cap space and should have enough funds to lure a free agent or two.
If the Devils are unable to lure Hossa to New Jersey, the Record suggests the team might focus their attention on the likes of ex-Devil Brian Rolston or Wild free agent Pavol Demitra.

I hope the devils go hard for some of the top free agents. Broduer is 36 years old and still has plenty left to his hall of fame career but he aint gettin younger. Lets get him the help he deserves!
