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.
