Willman was waived by the Devils on Friday with the intent to loan him to AHL Utica.

EDGE Analysis

Willman made 18 regular-season appearances for New Jersey last year and tallied three goals and an assist while averaging 8:20 of ice time. The 29-year-old is with the Devils on a two-way deal and will likely split time between the AHL and NHL this season.

Willman signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Devils on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Willman played 18 games with the Devils this season, recording three goals and one assist. The 29-year-old also played 33 games in the AHL this year, logging 12 goals and 10 assists. He will likely once again split time between the AHL and NHL in 2024-25 as an injury-replacement option for New Jersey.

Willman was reassigned to AHL Utica on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Willman was a healthy scratch Wednesday after scoring a pair of goals in five games during his recent recall. Willman has three goals and four points in 18 appearances this season with the Devils. Willman managed 11 goals and 21 points in 31 AHL games before his recall.

Willman scored a goal and blocked two shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Willman scored three minutes into the game, earning his first NHL point since Jan. 19. The 29-year-old has been confined to a fourth-line role, so he shouldn't be expected to see much offense even when he's in the lineup. For the season, he has three goals, one assist, 16 shots on net, 21 hits and a plus-2 rating through 17 appearances.

Willman was promoted from AHL Utica on Monday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Willman hasn't seen any NHL action since Feb. 6. He has two points in 13 contests with New Jersey this season.

Willman was reassigned to AHL Utica on Saturday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Willman didn't play during his most recent stint in the NHL, which spanned two games as a healthy scratch. He's been near the top of the list for call-ups this season when the Devils need a depth forward.

Willman was summoned from AHL Utica on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Willman has 11 goals and 21 points in 31 outings with Utica in 2023-24. He also has a goal and an assist in 13 contests with New Jersey. At this point it isn't clear if he'll be in the lineup versus Dallas on Thursday.

Per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site, Willman is practicing with the Devils on Tuesday, indicating he's been recalled by the team.

EDGE Analysis

The Devils are dealing with injuries to several key forwards at the moment, so Willman will likely stick with the big club for Thursday's game against Tampa Bay, even if he doesn't get into the lineup versus the Lightning. He's picked up one goal through four top-level appearances this year.

Willman was demoted to AHL Utica on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Willman provided some extra depth on the NHL roster for Saturday's game against Vancouver but has not seen any NHL action since Nov. 22. The 28-year-old has one goal in four games with the Devils this season.
