Greene left Tuesday’s game after being hit by a puck near the eye and will miss tonight’s game vs. Toronto. Seth Helgeson has been recalled from Albany (AHL) and will draw into the lineup tonight.
Greene, 31, is an underrated defenseman and the $5 million dollar cap-hit is a really fair deal for both sides. Greene had eight goals and 24 assists (32 points) in 82 games for the Devils last season. The eight goals set a new career-high for the eight year veteran. He will be back eating up close to 25 minutes a night, including tons of power-play time in 2014-15. He is not a big name, so he can come at a cheap price on draft day.
As expected, Greene will play tonight. He has 12 assists in 39 games.
