The New Jersey Devils lost Jack Hughes [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-jersey-devils/players/devils-jack-hughes-talks-love-for-reading-motivation-for-book-competition-with-quinn-hughes] to injury in their 3-2 overtime victory over the Nashville Predators [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/nashville-predators] on Thursday night at Prudential Center. At the 4:10 mark of the first period, Hughes went down the tunnel with a team trainer. He briefly returned seven minutes later and played one 55-second shift. At the 8:13 mark, he completed his third and final shift of the game as he went down the tunnel for a second time and did not return. He played 2:27, winning one draw, and was credited with one takeaway and two giveaways. After the game, head coach Sheldon Keefe [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-jersey-devils/latest-news/new-jersey-devils-sheldon-keefe-toronto-maple-leafs-nhl] said that at this time, the club does not believe it is a serious lower-body injury, but do not have a definitive timeline. In 36 games this season, Hughes has 36 points (12 goals, 24 assists). He entered Thursday night’s game on a three-game point streak. He previously missed 18 games in November and December after suffering an off-ice injury at a team dinner in Chicago. The Devils have three games scheduled before the Olympic break. The club travels north to play the Ottawa Senators [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/ottawa-senators] on Saturday and will return home to host the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday and the New York Islanders [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-york-islanders] on Thursday.
