LAS VEGAS, NV - Devils star Jack Hughes was injured late in the third period in a 2-0 loss to the Golden Knights in Vegas on Sunday night. Hughes, the team’s leading scorer, got tied up with Vegas’ Jack Eichel and crashed head first into the boards.

The New Jersey Devils might be without centerman Jack Hughes for a bit. The 23-year-old left Sunday’s game against the Vegas Golden Knights after running into Jack Eichel and crashing into the boards before getting up and aiding his right shoulder.

Bratt’s lone hit of the tournament was against Hughes, something he ‘had to take advantage of’ since both are expecting to be on the same side of the ice much more than not in future years. Although they were competitors in the tournament, the ‘peanut butter and jelly’ duo chatted during the tournament and watched each other play.

The New Jersey Devils played the Nashville Predators on Feb. 23, and it could not have gone better. The Devils defeated Nashville by a 5-0 final score and are now tied with the Carolina Hurricanes with 70 points in the Metropolitan Division standings.

He might not be competing for gold, but the New Jersey Devils can certainly be proud of their Swedish forward at the 4 Nations Face-Off. Leading up to the final game of the round-robin play, Team Sweden was left as the lone winless team in the 4 Nations tournament.

NEWARK—For a second, it looked like the New Jersey Devils were going to skate without Jack Hughes on Saturday morning. However, the superstar forward stepped on the ice a smidge late, and skated with the team as a full participant before their tilt with the Dallas Stars.
