The New Jersey Devils will face the St. Louis Blues on the road tonight (Feb. 28), but the matchup also marks an important career milestone for forward Cody Glass, who will skate in his 300th NHL game. The achievement comes just two months after he earned the 100th NHL point of his career.

The Devils traded for him in March of 2025, in a deal with the Pittsburgh Penguins that also included Jonathan Gruden, in exchange for Chase Stillman, Max Graham, and a third-round 2027 draft pick. Since then, Glass has become an important depth scorer, primarily as a third-line center.

This season, he has 13 goals and six assists, which is his highest point total since his career-high of 35 with the Nashville Predators in 2022-23. Of his 19 points in 2025-26, Glass tallied 10 of them throughout January, including six goals, two of which were game-winners.

Glass has been a key contributor to the Devils’ bottom-six forward group, providing scoring stability and strong two-way play. In fact, he’s currently tied with Jesper Bratt and Dawson Mercer for the club’s third-most goals.

Since signing a two-year, $5 million contract extension in July, Glass has been one of the Devils’ most offensively efficient players. He ranks second on the team in goals per 60 minutes (GF/60) in 5-on-5 scenarios, with an average of 2.59. In addition, his faceoff win percentage (FO%) of 53 marks a new career high for the 26-year-old forward.

Overall, Glass has had a positive impact since joining the Devils, and he’ll play an important role moving forward, as the team tries to avoid finishing the season near the bottom of the Metropolitan Division.
