Friday night was a big news day for the team, as they traded Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for Marco Rossi, Zeev Buium, Liam "hgren, and a 2026 first-round pick. All three of the new players were at practice on Saturday, and the head coach spoke about them. "I worked with Zeev when he was 13, for three years in a row.

I've seen him play a lot of hockey; he's going to be a really good hockey player, and he will be fun to work with." Quick Hits on…...

21+ hour, 23+ min ago (848+ words) As cold weather continues to grip New Jersey, we now watch with bated breath as a fast-moving clipper system flies our way. As it swings through from Saturday night into Sunday morning, much of the state will see the first accumulating snow of the season. (In fact, this will be New Jersey's most impactful winter storm in over 10 months, since February 11-12, 2025.) It's not a "major" storm. It's not a coastal storm or nor'easter. It's not a "messy," multi-impact storm. It's a few inches of snow. Enough to snarl travel due to poor traction and reduced visibility. And enough to make the second half of the weekend feel especially wintry. With less than 24 hours to go until peak wintry impacts, let's talk about the latest storm timeline and expected accumulations. And we can't ignore or undermine the extreme cold that will…...

(WPVI) -- A Washington Township, New Jersey, man is facing criminal charges after police say he impersonated a federal officer and entered a home under construction - while armed - during a property check on Wednesday afternoon. Police said an officer was dispatched to a Strand Avenue home after a caller reported that the door had been left open. Officers later learned the caller was the same man who met the responding officer at the scene, identified as Nicholas Cabral, who lives nearby and claimed he was a Homeland Security officer. "He was in a marked police car with police lights on it. It was lettered Homeland Security, federal police," said Washington Township Police Chief Patrick Gurcsik. "It wasn't until they cleared the call that our officers believed there was something suspicious about him." Body camera footage captured Cabral asking the…...

1+ day, 10+ hour ago (354+ words) TRENTON, NJ " Low-income households in New Jersey could soon be automatically enrolled in state energy assistance programs under a new bill introduced in the Legislature aimed at streamlining access to help with utility bills. Senate Bill 4709, sponsored by Senators Angela V. McKnight (D-Hudson) and Shirley K.

1+ day, 16+ hour ago (302+ words) State officials say an osprey nest they authorized for removal from a radio tower in Allenhurst was "inactive" and that bald eagles seen in the area were unlikely to successfully use the nest for breeding. A crane removed the nest and the tower antenna Wednesday morning from the site of two long-abandoned Jersey Central Power & Light buildings near Main and Hume streets, witnesses said. The site is being prepped and cleared for the construction of 28 townhouses, according to Real Estate New Jersey. A spokesman for the state Department of Environmental Protection, which oversees New Jersey Fish and Wildlife, said the nest didn't "meet the definition of an active bald eagle nest" even though two eagles had been perching near it. State officials worked with the developer and issued a permit allowing the nest to be removed. The DEP said the…...
