Haula (illness) won't play in Tuesday's exhibition contest versus Montreal after skipping the morning skate, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Haula hasn't skated yet during training camp, but he was at the arena Sunday for a short workout, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site. The 33-year-old Haula will be brought along slowly to rebuild his strength from an illness. He notched 16 goals and 19 assists across 76 regular-season outings in 2023-24. Haula will probably occupy a middle-six role and could see power-play time during the upcoming campaign.
