The Devils made a huge splash on Monday, announcing the hiring of Ray Shero as the team's new general manager.

Lou Lamoriello, who served as general manager for all three of the Devils' Stanley Cup Championships, will continue in his role as team president, with Shero reporting to him.

Lamoriello told reporters on a conference call Monday afternoon that he recommended Shero, the former GM of the Oenguins, for the job.
