Devils' Brenden Dillon: Not playing Friday

Dillon (lower body) will miss Game 3 against Carolina on Friday.

Dillon will sit out his second consecutive game, along with Luke Hughes (undisclosed). The 34-year-old Dillon was injured in the second stanza in Game 1 on Sunday and has not practiced since. Look for Simon Nemec and Dennis Cholowski to remain in the lineup, replacing Dillon and Hughes.
