Devils' Timo Meier: Adds power-play goal in win
Meier scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
Meier is starting to get on track with three goals and an assist over his last four games. The 30-year-old winger is up to four goals, five assists, 80 shots on net, 36 hits, 27 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 21 appearances. Meier's offense should improve as long as he stays in a top-six role -- he's shooting just 5.0 percent this year, which is his lowest mark since he shot 3.5 percent over 34 games as a rookie in 2016-17.

Devils' Nico Hischier: Nets shorthanded goal
Hischier scored a shorthanded goal on four shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
Hischier has two goals and three assists over seven outings in November. The 27-year-old center's tally Saturday was his first shorthanded point of the season. He has earned at least one shorthanded point in eight straight campaigns. This year, he's at nine goals, five helpers, 47 shots on net, 16 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 21 appearances.

Devils' Luke Hughes: Three helpers in Saturday's win
Hughes collected three assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
The Devils' depth forwards did the heavy lifting on offense up front, but Hughes sparked the attack with an assist in every period as he helped set up tallies by Connor Brown, Jesper Boqvist and Evan Rodrigues. Hughes struggled to make a consistent impact to begin the season, but over the last 10 games he's delivered three goals and 10 points while adding 16 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-9 rating.

Devils' Evan Rodrigues: Lights lamp twice against Caps
Rodrigues scored two goals in Saturday's 7-4 win over Washington.
The veteran center iced the win with two third-period tallies, including an empty-netter. Rodrigues has three goals and four points in the last two games, but he managed just one goal and three points in his prior 12 contests. While he skates on the second power-play unit, his bottom-six role at even strength puts a firm limit on his fantasy appeal.

Devils' Lenni Hameenaho: Three-point effort in win
Hameenaho produced a goal and two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
The 22-year-old winger got the Devils on the board midway through the first period, snapping a one-timer from the faceoff dot past Charlie Lindgren to tie the game at 1-1. Hameenaho has skated on the fourth line since being called up Wednesday, but with two goals and four points in his first two NHL games of the season -- and six goals and nine points in 11 games for AHL Utica prior to his promotion -- the 2023 second-round pick is making a quick case for a bigger role.

Devils' Connor Brown: Three points in win over Caps
Brown scored a power-play goal and added two assists, one shorthanded, in Saturday's 7-4 win over Washington.
The veteran winger did a little bit of everything Saturday, as he also added three hits, two shots on net, one blocked shot and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. Brown's spot on the top power-play unit keeps him on the fantasy radar, and over the last nine games he's come to life with five goals and nine points, including two goals and an assist on the man advantage.

Devils' Jesper Boqvist: Three-point effort Saturday
Boqvist scored a goal and added two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
The 28-year-old bottom-six forward had a point in every period, finding the back of the net himself by flipping home a rebound to tie the game at 3-3 midway through the second frame. It was Boqvist's first multi-point performance of the season, and through 19 games he's collected six goals and 10 points with 25 shots on net, 24 hits and a plus-3 rating.

Devils' Connor Hellebuyck: Faces huge volume in Saturday's win
Hellebuyck turned aside 43 shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Capitals.
The Devils got out-shot 47-32 on a wild night in DC, but Hellebuyck was nearly perfect over the final two frames, with only Ilya Protas getting a puck past him on a third-period power play. Hellebuyck is 7-0-0 in seven starts for his new team with a 2.25 GAA and .916 save percentage as he looks to reestablish his spot among the NHL's top netminders.

Devils' Connor Hellebuyck: Starting in Washington
Hellebuyck will defend the road net against Washington on Saturday.
Hellebuyck is coming off a 26-save performance in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals. He has allowed only 12 goals on 143 shots during his season-opening six-game winning streak. Washington (10-7-0) ranks ninth in the league this campaign with 3.41 goals per game.

Devils' Vladislav Kolyachonok: Sidelined with illness
Kolyachonok (illness) will not play in Saturday's road clash against the Capitals, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Kolyachonok is the second New Jersey blueliner to sustain an illness this week, as neither he nor Brett Pesce made the team's trip to Washington D.C. The 25-year-old Kolyachonok was effective in his season debut, finding the back of the net and posting a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals. In his absence, Anton Silaev was called up from AHL Utica to skate on the team's third defensive pairing Saturday.

Devils' Brett Pesce: Not playing Saturday
Pesce (illness) won't play against Washington on Saturday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Pesce will miss his second straight game. He has recorded one goal, seven assists, 19 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and six hits in 19 appearances this season. Pesce has some extra time to recover ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Montreal, but it's unclear if he will be ready to return to the lineup by then.

Devils' Seamus Casey: Transferred to LTIR
Casey (knee) was moved to long-term injured reserve on Friday, per PuckPedia.
Casey began the season on non-roster injured reserve due to knee surgery. This move to LTIR doesn't change his timeline -- he's already missed enough time to be eligible to return. He was slated to miss 6-8 weeks, so don't expect him to be ready until late November at the earliest.

Devils' Brenden Dillon: Pockets first assist
Dillon notched an assist, two shots on goal, four hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
This was Dillon's first point in 11 outings this season. The 36-year-old defenseman is in a part-time role, though his playing time should tick up while Johnny Kovacevic (ankle) is out. Dillon has added 27 hits, 16 PIM and 13 blocked shots this year, offering some upside in banger leagues if he can chip in enough offense to stay in the lineup.

Devils' Johnny Kovacevic: Placed on injured reserve
The Devils placed Kovacevic (ankle) on injured reserve Friday, retroactive to Nov. 10.
Kovacevic sustained an injury Tuesday against Winnipeg, and while the extent of the issue wasn't initially known, it's now been revealed that he's dealing with an ankle injury that will force him to miss time. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action, but Vladislav Kolyachonok could see increased playing time in Kovacevic's absence, while Anton Silaev was also called up from AHL Utica on Friday.

Devils' Anton Silaev: Promoted from minors
Silaev was recalled from AHL Utica on Friday.
Silaev is in his first season in North America, having come over from the KHL ahead of the 2026-27 campaign. In his 12 games with the Comets, the 20-year-old blueliner has notched four helpers but has yet to find the back of the net. If he gets into the lineup for the Devils, it will likely be in favor of Vladislav Kolyachonok.

Devils' Lenni Hameenaho: Tallies in Thursday's win
Hameenaho scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
Hameenaho drew into the lineup after getting called up Wednesday. The 22-year-old was able to pot a goal in his season debut after producing nine points in 11 outings for AHL Utica to start the campaign. Hameenaho is currently in a bottom-six role, and it'll be tough for him to push out any members of the Devils' current top six.

Devils' Stefan Noesen: Gets goal in win
Noesen scored a goal, added two hits and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
The Devils called up reinforcements Wednesday in the form of Noesen, Lenni Hameenaho and Vladislav Kolyachonok. All three got into the lineup and found the back of the net in this win. Noesen is on the roster for a third stint this season and has two goals and two assists over six appearances. He's added seven shots on net and 16 hits. A strong showing in the absence of Anthony Mantha (throat) could help Noesen stick around once the Devils get closer to full strength up front.

Devils' Jack Hughes: Pots empty-netter
Hughes scored an empty-net goal on three shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
Hughes' late tally kept his point streak alive at seven games. He has six goals and seven helpers during the streak, and he's been kept off the scoresheet just once in his last 11 outings. For the year, the star center has 10 goals, 17 assists, 79 shots and a plus-13 rating over 20 appearances to power the Devils' offense.
