Devils Recall Daniel Sprong, Assign Seamus Casey To AHL

March 8, 2025 at 1:37 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

The Devils have done some roster shuffling in advance of their game on Sunday against Philadelphia.  The team announced that they’ve recalled recently-acquired winger Daniel Sprong from AHL Utica while they’ve also assigned defenseman Seamus Casey to Utica.

Sprong is joining his third NHL team of the season.  He started with Vancouver after inking a one-year, $975K contract over the summer but after struggling in limited action to start the season, he was flipped to Seattle in November for future considerations.   Things weren’t much better there either and in early January, he passed through waivers unclaimed and had been in the minors since.

On the season, the 27-year-old has two goals and three assists in 19 NHL outings while averaging just over 12 minutes a night.  Sprong has been much more productive in the minors, however, tallying 11 goals and 14 assists in 19 games with AHL Coachella Valley.  New Jersey will now get to see if that can translate to being more of a contributor for them down the stretch.

As for Casey, the team’s release indicates that his demotion came before Friday’s trade deadline, keeping him eligible to play down the stretch for the Comets.  He has played in 10 games with the Devils this season and has been productive in limited minutes, notching four goals and an assist in a little under 12 minutes a night of playing time.  He also has 15 points in 22 appearances with Utica and should go back to playing a prominent role for them for their stretch run as they look to try to make a late run to sneak into a playoff spot in the North Division.

    Sprong’s a gifted talent offensively. The issue has always been he’s awful defensively. Which typically is not a good mix for a guy who has often been pigeon-holed in a bottom-6 spot. He WILL score points if given the chances though. Just needs a great 2-way center next to him.
