Devils are 5 points out with 2 games in hand. And the team they are chasing is Detroit. Plus they have been without Hughes for weeks and will get him back at some point.
Calgary is 3 points out with one game extra and chasing St. Louis. And are shedding big players.
But moreover, I think Devils like their team over the next 3 years more than Calgary likes theirs, so if they are after Hanifin, it's with a contract either in place or agreed to with him.
