Geertsen was a healthy scratch on Thursday so this probably won't affect the Devils' lineup plans for Saturday's game in Columbus but Geertsen will be unavailable for at least two games.

Roy was missing from the morning skate and will be a game-time decision for Thursday's game vs. the Rangers. Mark Stone is also a game-time decision for the Golden Knights.

Stone has missed the last four games with an undisclosed injury but was on the ice for Thursday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision vs. the Rangers. The Golden Knights went 2-1-1 without Stone.

Patrick has not played since October 22nd but he is no stranger to missing long stretches of play. The 23-year-old has one goal in four games with the Golden Knights.
