Seems the NJ Devils and UMASS Lowell are in contract talks over renewing the Lowell Devils lease...

Devs should move the club to Newark and put up curtains to limit seating capacity like Seton Hall does.

A lot of fans would go cause NHL games are just too expensive these days and the Rock in downtown Newark is a great hockey venue...maybe, the best in the country. Unlike Trenton, North Jersey is Devils country...

You must have forgotten that the New Jersey Nets could be moving there next season, which (on top of the Devils and Seton Hall) would complicate dates even further...

I'd say Atlantic City would be the best contingency option...was considered as being a temporary home for the Phantoms (before Adirondack was chosen), plus the historic appeal can do them good.

the Izod Center likely will be demolished once the Nets move to Brooklyn; Devils don't want anything to do w/ NJSEA

They're coming back to Albany, it looks like.
