Top Devils News

  • Devils' Max Willman: Recalled Monday

  • Devils' Santeri Hatakka: Back with big club

  • Devils' Nico Daws: Headed for minors

    Daws was reassigned to AHL Utica on Monday.

    Daws managed just one win in his last five outings, posting a 1-3-0 record and 2.88 GAA. With new additions Jake Allen and Kaapo Kahkonen available, Daws was the odd man out and figures to spend the remainder of the campaign in the minors, barring an injury to one of the aforementioned backstops.

  • Devils' Nick DeSimone: Effective since entering lineup

    DeSimone had one hit and a plus-1 rating across 11:27 of ice time in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    DeSimone had to wait six weeks to make his Devils debut after being claimed off waivers from Calgary, but the former Flame is off to a hot start in New Jersey. He had an assist in his Devils debut Thursday against the Stars, then scored a goal Saturday in Arizona. While DeSimone was finally held off the scoresheet Sunday, he still made a positive impact as the only New Jersey player to post a positive rating in the game. DeSimone was on the ice for Nico Hischier's unassisted third-period goal and none of the three subsequent Vegas tallies.

  • Devils' Alexander Holtz: Non-factor for last two months

    Holtz didn't record a meaningful statistic in 10:36 of ice time during Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Holtz's only contributions to the box score were a pair of missed shots, even though 1:32 of his TOI came on the power play. While Holtz has a respectable 14 goals and 25 points this season, those totals include only two goals and one assist over the past 25 games, as Holtz has been buried on the fourth line for the last two months.

  • Devils' Tomas Nosek: Stuck on one point

    Nosek posted one shot, one blocked shot, one hit and a minus-1 rating in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    It's no surprise that Nosek failed to mark the scoresheet against one of his former teams Sunday considering he has just one point in 24 appearances this season -- a March 14 goal in Dallas. Nosek had at least 15 points in each of the previous six seasons, split between Vegas and Boston, but he's been unable to find success as a fourth-line winger for the Devils in 2023-24.

  • Devils' Curtis Lazar: Goal drought hits 23 games

    Lazar's goal drought extended to 23 games as he finished with one shot and two hits in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Lazar hasn't found the back of the net since a two-goal outburst against the Golden Knights on Jan. 22, and a rematch with Vegas didn't alleviate his scoring woes. He came into this game with a helper in each of his previous two outings, but that modest point streak came to a close Sunday and was preceded by 11 games without a point. Overall, Lazar has just six goals and 21 points in 63 appearances.

  • Devils' Erik Haula: Sparse production of late

    Haula had no shots and a minus-1 rating in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Haula has struggled to generate offense lately despite seeing significant ice time -- he skated 19:45 in Sunday's loss, including 1:33 on the power play. His last multi-point game came Feb. 6, and Haula has just three goals and three assists in 20 subsequent appearances. Overall, Haula's at 14 goals and 31 points in 62 games.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Provides only offense in loss

    Hischier scored his 22nd goal of the season in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    The 25-year-old center broke a scoreless tie 38 seconds into the third period, but it was all the offense the Devils could manage against Logan Thompson. Hischier has gotten onto the scoresheet in seven of nine games so far in March, producing two goals and nine points over that stretch.

  • Devils' Jake Allen: Fades late in Vegas

    Allen turned aside 34 of 36 in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights, with Vegas' final goal getting scored into an empty net.

    The 33-year-old netminder held the home squad off the board for two periods, but goals by William Carrier and Jack Eichel in the third, and a lack of offensive support from the Devils, handed Allen the loss. He's had a solid start to his New Jersey tenure, allowing four goals on 73 shots over two starts, and Allen appears to be the team's top choice in the crease ahead of Kaapo Kahkonen or Nico Daws.

  • Devils' Santeri Hatakka: Reassigned to AHL

    Hatakka was sent to AHL Utica on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

    Hatakka has four goals, 17 points and 28 PIM in 41 games with Utica this season. He's also contributed two assists in nine outings with the Devils.

  • Devils' John Marino: Good to go Sunday

    Marino (upper body) will play Sunday against Vegas, Sam Kasan of the Devils' official site reports.

    Following a two-game absence, Marino will replace Santeri Hatakka in the lineup. The 26-year-old Marino has four goals, 23 points, 55 shots on net and 77 blocked shots across 64 outings this campaign.

  • Devils' Jake Allen: Starting in Vegas

    Allen will defend the road net Sunday against the Golden Knights, according to Sam Kasan of the Devils' official site.

    Allen made 35 saves in a 6-2 win over Dallas on Thursday during his first start as a member of the Devils. He was acquired from Montreal on March 8. In 22 appearances this season, Allen has a 7-12-3 record with a 3.57 GAA and an .895 save percentage. Vegas is tied for 14th in the league this campaign with 3.17 goals per contest.

  • Devils' Tyler Wotherspoon: Returns to AHL

    Wotherspoon was reassigned to AHL Utica on Saturday, per CapFriendly.

    Wotherspoon was up with the big club for two games, but he served as a healthy scratch both times. He could be an emergency recall again if John Marino (upper body) can't play versus the Golden Knights on Sunday.

  • Devils' Max Willman: Sent back down

    Willman was reassigned to AHL Utica on Saturday, per CapFriendly.

    Willman didn't play during his most recent stint in the NHL, which spanned two games as a healthy scratch. He's been near the top of the list for call-ups this season when the Devils need a depth forward.

  • Devils' Nico Daws: Perfect in relief

    Daws stopped all 16 shots he faced in relief of Kaapo Kahkonen in a 4-1 loss to Arizona on Saturday.

    The Devils brought Kahkonen in at the deadline, but the former Shark has lost 11 straight games and is 1-17-3 in his last 21 decisions. Although Daws was sharp Saturday, he won't get a load of time with Kahkonen and Jake Allen now in town.

  • Devils' Kaapo Kahkonen: Dark cloak of losing continues

    Kahkonen allowed three goals on 15 shots in the first period before being pulled in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Arizona.

    He was replaced by Nico Daws, who stopped all 16 shots he faced. Kahkonen lost his 11th straight game, dating back to a Jan. 22 win for the Sharks against Kings. He has dropped 20 of his past 21 decisions. There is no reason to think Kahkonen is an option for your fantasy net.
