New Jersey Devils News

Noesen was scratched from Saturday’s lineup in New York but will play Tuesday in Calgary. Nosen has just two goals and five assists (seven points) in 29 games this season.

Bernier allowed three goals on 33 shots in the Red Wings loss in Tampa Bay on Saturday. Bernier has not registered a win since February 2nd, going 0-4-3 with a 3.49 GAA and .893 SV% in his last nine appearances (six starts, three relief). The Canadiens have destroyed the Red Wings this season and Bernier has replaced Jimmy Howard twice—he has allowed four goals on 27 shots (.852 SV%) in those two relief appearances.

Tatar missed Friday’s game in Anaheim but will play against his former team tonight. Tatar has been held off of the scoresheet in his last three games but has 22 goals and 26 assists (48 points) in 67 games this season.

White, 21, was a fourth-round pick (No.97 overall) in 2015 and could make his NHL debut this week. White has six goals and 19 assists (25 points), 23 penalty minutes and a minus-13 rating in 61 games with Binghamton this season.

Allen stopped all 28 shots that he faced in the Blues shutout win in Los Angeles on Thursday. It was an impressive outing for Allen, who will be making consecutive starts for the first time since Jan.3rd/5th. Allen has not faced the Sharks this season but has gone 10-7-3 with a 2.25 GAA, .925 SV% and three shutouts on the road.

Markstrom allowed two goals on 30 shots in the Canucks overtime win over the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. Markstrom is 2-1-1 with an impressive 1.68 GAA, .954 SV% and one shutout in his last four outings but draws a terrible matchup on Saturday. The Golden Knights have not lost a game since adding Mark Stone to their team, going 5-0-0 while averaging 3.40 goals for per game.

Bernier allowed four goals on 34 shots in the Red Wings loss in Colorado on Tuesday. Bernier has not registered a win since he shutout the Senators on February 2nd, going 0-3-3 with a 3.55 GAA and .890 SV% in five starts and three relief appearances since. He should be left on the waiver wire for his start in Tampa Bay.

Hischier remains day-to-day and will not travel to Washington or New York for Friday and Saturday’s games.

Bratt left Tuesday’s game against the Blue Jackets with a lower-body injury and will miss at least a couple of weeks. The Devils lineup continues to take hits as they’re now without six members of their top-9.

Markstrom allowed three goals on 48 shots in the Canucks loss in Vegas on Sunday. Markstrom has lost five of his last six starts (1-3-2) despite posting a song 2.33 GAA, .933 SV% and one shutout. Things won’t get any easier tonight vs. the Maple Leafs—Markstrom allowed five goals on 34 shots in a 5-0 loss in his first start against Toronto this season.

Bernier allowed two goals on 12 shots after replacing Jimmy Howard in the Red Wings blowout loss to Montreal last Tuesday. Howard lost in Arizona on Saturday so the Red Wings will go back to Bernier tonight vs. his former team. The 30-year-old has gone 5-9-3 with a 3.52 GAA, .896 SV% and one shutout on the road this year.

Dumoulin has missed the last three games after suffering a concussion in the Penguins’ outdoor game in Philadelphia. Dumoulin rotated on the top-pair in Monday’s practice and was a full participant in Tuesday’s morning skate, but remains a game-time decision. Dumoulin, who will likely skate with Justin Schultz if he plays, has 21 points (2G / 19A), a plus-27 rating and 78 shots on goal in 62 games this season.

Hischier was listed as questionable after missing Monday’s practice and was officially ruled out this morning. With Hischer out with an upper-body injury, Travis Zajac will centre the Devils’ top-line.

Bastian will miss his second straight game with an undisclosed injury that he suffered against the Flyers on Tuesday. Bastian remains day-to-day.

Hischier missed Monday’s practice with an upper-body injury that he suffered Saturday during the third period in Boston. Travis Zajac centred the Devils top-line and Blake Coleman slotted in as the second-line centre with Hischier missing. He is day-to-day and unlikely to play on Tuesday.
