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.

Devils' Vladislav Kolyachonok: First goal of season a game-winner
Kolyachonok scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Capitals.
Called up from AHL Utica earlier in the day to make his season debut with the Devils, Kolyachonok made an immediate impact by sneaking a shot from the blue line through traffic that Logan Thompson wasn't fully able to track. Kolyachonok is on his sixth NHL team in the last four seasons, and the journeyman defenseman will likely only stick around until Brett Pesce (illness) or Johnny Kovacevic (undisclosed) are able to return to the lineup.

Devils' Arseny Gritsyuk: Two helpers in Thursday's win
Gritsyuk notched two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
The 25-year-old winger had a hand in an Evan Rodrigues tally that opened the scoring early in the first period before feeding Jack Hughes for an empty-netter in the final minute of the third. Gritsyuk's production has taken an impressive leap forward to begin his second NHL season, and through 20 games he's piled up eight goals and 16 points while moving up to the top line at even strength and maintaining a spot on the second power-play unit.

Devils' Evan Rodrigues: Two points in win over Caps
Rodrigues scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over Washington.
The veteran center played a key role in the victory, opening the scoring early in the first period from the faceoff dot to the left of Logan Thompson before Rodrigues set up Vladislav Kolyachonok for what proved to be the game-winner early in the third. It was Rodrigues' first multi-point effort since Oct. 15, snapping a 12-game skid in which he'd managed just one goal and three points, and the power-play tally was his first point of the season on the man advantage.

Devils' Connor Hellebuyck: Stays perfect Thursday
Hellebuyck made 26 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.
Washington grabbed a 2-1 lead early in the second period, but Hellebuyck slammed the door shut the rest of the way and let New Jersey's offense get to work. The former Jet has gone 6-0-0 in his first six starts for his new club since finally getting traded, delivering a 1.97 GAA and .916 save percentage as he reminds the league why he's a three-time Vezina Trophy winner.

Devils' Connor Hellebuyck: Expected to face Washington
Hellebuyck is expected to start at home against Washington on Thursday.
Hellebuyck has been fantastic since the Devils acquired him from Winnipeg, going 5-0-0 with a 1.96 GAA and a .913 save percentage across five starts. The Capitals are a difficult assignment, though. They're 10-6-0 and rank eighth in goals per game with 3.50 this season. Washington has also won seven of its past 10 games while averaging 3.70 goals per game, so the Capitals haven't shown any signs of slowing down.

Devils' Vladislav Kolyachonok: Brought up by New Jersey
Kolyachonok was recalled from AHL Utica on Thursday, per Kristy Flannery of The Hockey News.
Kolyachonok will join New Jersey ahead of Thursday's home clash against the Capitals due to the expected absence of both Brett Pesce (illness) and Johnny Kovacevic (undisclosed). Across 12 appearances with AHL Utica this season, the 25-year-old Kolyachonok has dished out three assists. He'll likely play in a third-line pairing alongside Brenden Dillon ahead of Kolyachonok's first NHL game since Dec. 27, 2025.

Devils' Johnny Kovacevic: Set to miss time
Kovacevic (undisclosed) is undergoing imaging Thursday and won't play in the Devils' home matchup against the Capitals, Kristy Flannery of The Hockey News reports.
Kovacevic sustained an undisclosed injury Tuesday against Winnipeg, and the extent of the issue is still being determined. However, head coach Sheldon Keefe said ahead of Thursday's matchup that Kovacevic isn't believed to be dealing with a day-to-day issue at this point, so it seems likely that he'll miss additional time. Brett Pesce (illness) will also be unavailable Thursday, so Vladislav Kolyachonok will be called up to enter the lineup against the Capitals.

Devils' Brett Pesce: Unavailable due to illness
Pesce has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Washington due to an illness, Kristy Flannery of The Hockey News reports.
After appearing in each of the Devils' first 19 games of the regular season, Pesce will be absent from the lineup for the first time Thursday. Vladislav Kolyachonok is slated to be called up by the Devils ahead of Thursday's matchup, and he'll be in the lineup against the Capitals, while Pesce's next opportunity to suit up will be in a rematch against Washington on Saturday.

Devils' Jakub Malek: Posts shutout for Utica
Malek logged a 19-save shutout in AHL Utica's 1-0 win over Belleville on Wednesday.
Malek has been electric so far this season. He's 4-1-0 with a 1.39 GAA and a .921 save percentage over five outings. The 24-year-old will continue to share the AHL crease with David Rittich.

Devils' Stefan Noesen: Called up Wednesday
Noesen was recalled from AHL Utica on Wednesday.
Noesen has two goals and four assists in seven AHL contests this campaign. In five NHL appearances this season, he has a goal, two assists and 14 hits across 9:30 of average ice time per game. Noesen and Lenni Hameenaho were brought up from AHL Utica on Wednesday to provide forward depth while Anthony Mantha (throat) is on long-term injured reserve.
