The 24-year-old Misyul was the 70th overall pick of the Devils in 2019 NHL Entry Draft. Misyul had 14 points (4G / 10A) in 44 games with Utica last season, his first taste of professional hockey in North America.

The Devils enter the action on Thursday as -132 road favorites against a Senators club that scored eight goals in their previous game, a whirlwind 8-7 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Kings.

Markstrom will start on Tuesday in Carolina.

The Devils will turn to Markstrom in the crease for the back end of the back-to-back on Tuesday evening against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 34-year-old Markstrom has flaunted mixed results early in his tenure with the Devils but has averaged a respectable 2.71 GAA and .906 SV% through three games (2-1-0). Since the 2020-21 season, Markstrom's first as a Calgary Flame, the veteran netminder has finished the season with a save percentage greater than .905 only once.

Allen will start on Monday vs. Utah.

On the front end of a back-to-back, the Devils will turn to Allen between the pipes for his second start of the young season in a Monday afternoon matchup against the Utah Hockey Club.

Since being traded to the Devils late last season, Allen has posted a respectable 2.96 GAA and .902 SV% in 14 outings (7-6-1). New Jersey enters action as -161 home favorites against Utah.

Markstrom will start against the Maple Leafs on Thursday.

Markstrom was excellent in his first game as a New Jersey Devil, saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 4-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres as part of the NHL Global Series in Prague. The Devils will return to Markstrom in net for their first contest in North America on Thursday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Devils are -132 home favorites against a Maple Leafs squad that played their season opener last night and were shut out 1-0 against the Montreal Canadiens despite firing 48 shots on goal.

Hatakka underwent successful shoulder surgery and is without a timetable to return.

Hatakka suffered an injury in preseason that ultimately resulted in undergoing shoulder surgery. The 23-year-old had a legitimate shot of making the Devils out of training camp after Luke Hughes was announced out due to injury, but will now, unfortunately, be sidelined for the foreseeable future. In 12 games in 2023-24, he had two assists, 12 SOG and a +5 plus/minus while averaging just 14:39 TOI/GP.

Palat (personal) returned to New Jersey's practice on Tuesday.

Palat was away from the team for several days to attend to the birth of his child and should be ready for their next contest on Thursday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 33-year-old Palat is in his third season with the Devils and is coming off his lowest full-season production campaign, scoring only 31 points (11G / 20A) in 71 games.

Ondrej Palat
Pesce (lower leg) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

Pesce did not play in the first two games of the season for the Devils in Prague as part of the NHL Global Series as he is still recovering from surgery for a fractured fibula. That said, with his presence at practice on Tuesday, Pesce's return seems to be on the immediate horizon. Pesce signed a six-year contract to join New Jersey in the offseason after nine successful seasons on Carolina's blueline. In 70 games in 2023-24, he had three goals, 13 points, 20 PIMs, and a +10 plus/minus while averaging 20:17 TOI/GP.

MacDermid will make his season debut on Saturday vs. Buffalo.

With Ondrej Palat stepping away from the team due to the birth of his second child, Kurtis MacDaermid will make his season debut on Saturday in Prague vs. Buffalo. The 30-year-old bruising left-winger came to New Jersey mid season in 2023-24 and had two goals, three points and 73 PIMs in 45 total games played.

Allen will start on Saturday vs. Buffalo in Prague.

Allen was traded to the Devils last March and went 6-6-1 with a 3.11 GAA and .900 SV% in 13 games. Over the last two seasons he has posted a pretty ugly .893 SV% across 76 games. With Jacob Markstrom starting the season opener on Friday, the Devils will turn to Allen in the second half of a back-to-back. New Jersey enter play as -140 favourites following yesterday’s 4-1 win.
