On February 12, 2010, after getting penalized for a melee in a game between the Marlies and the Manitoba Moose in Winnipeg involving almost all the players on the ice, Deveaux was alleged to have been taunted with racial slurs by a fan while in the penalty box. Deveaux subsequently threw a roll of hockey tape in the heckler's direction and was suspended for three games by the AHL.[2]
On August 24, 2010, Deveaux signed as a free agent to a one-year contract to return to the AHL's Chicago Wolves.[3]
On August 16, 2011, Deveaux signed as an unrestricted free agent with the New York Rangers.[4]
On November 25, 2011, while playing for the Rangers, Deveaux was suspended by the NHL for three games, for delivering an illegal check to the head of forward Tomáš Fleischmann in a game against the Florida Panthers on November 23, 2011.[5] Deveaux was eligible to return December 1, 2011, however instead Rangers president and general manager Glen Sather announced Deveaux had been assigned to the Connecticut Whale of the AHL.[6]
On July 9, 2012, Deveaux signed a one-year contract as a free agent with the Panthers.

Deveaux took a hiatus and returned to the professional during the 2016–17 season in agreeing to a try-out with Czech club HC Sparta Praha of the Czech Extraliga on January 26, 2017.[13] Keen to prove a point with his play rather than his past, Deveaux secured a contract for the remainder of the season on February 3, 2017.[14] Over the final stretch of the season, he contributed with one goal and one assist in four games.
On October 20, 2017, the Sheffield Steelers announced that they had signed Deveaux while announcing that his hiatus was due to injury.[15] On November 28, 2017, Sheffield announced his release after posting four points in six games.[16] He continued the season abroad, playing out the remainder of the year in Slovakia with HK Dukla Trenčín of the Slovak Extraliga.
