Hischier scored a goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Montreal Canadiens but exited after only 14:09 time-on-ice due to an undisclosed injury and has not played since. The 26-year-old Hischier has 43 points (24G / 19A) in 51 games this season. In the Devils' most recent game, Ondrej Palat was the main beneficiary, taking Hischier's spot on their top powerplay unit.
