The Binghamton Devils are a professional ice hockey team in the American Hockey League (AHL) announced to begin play for the 2017–18 season as the top minor league affiliate of the National Hockey League (NHL)'s New Jersey Devils. Based in Binghamton, New York, the Devils will play their home games at Floyd L. Maines Veterans Memorial Arena.

On September 26, 2016, shortly after it was announced that the Binghamton Senators were being purchased by their parent club and would relocate to Belleville, Ontario, for the 2017–18 season as the Belleville Senators, the B-Sens' management reaffirmed that they were working hard to keep AHL hockey in Binghamton for 2017–18 and beyond.

On January 26, 2017, the Times Union reported that the Albany Devils would be the team to call Broome County home for 2017–18, citing the Devils' average per-game attendance of 2,888 being last in the 30-team AHL. The official announcement of the team's relocation (and the Binghamton Devils name) was announced on January 31, and that the organization had signed a five-year operating agreement.
