New Jersey Has A Deep Offense The New Jersey Devils have announced that Jacob Markstrom will be out for the next four to six weeks due to an MCL sprain. With this, he will miss the rest of New Jersey's games before the 4 Nations Face-Off begins. Markstrom suffered his injury [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-jersey-devils/game-day/devils-goaltender-leaves-game-with-apparent-injury] during the Devils' Jan. 22 contest against the Boston Bruins. This was after Bruins forward Justin Brazeau crashed into the Devils' star goaltender.

In 36 games this season, he has a 21-9-5 record, a .912 save percentage, and a 2.20 goals-against average. However, on the bright side, at least the veteran should be back before the playoffs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Google News [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjEyMTgxMTEyNTIzMzM1Mjk2/google-news.png] Google News Stay updated with the most interesting Devils stories, analysis, breaking news and more!
