Welcome to the NHL Status Report. Here is the latest lineup/injury news around the NHL.
New Jersey Devils
Jacob Markstrom will be out “a couple of weeks” for the Devils, coach Sheldon Keefe said. The goalie sustained a lower-body injury after coming in relief of Jake Allen in a 3-2 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday. Markstrom made eight saves after replacing Allen, who was cramping. “[It’s] good news, based on what had happened,” Keefe said. “I don’t consider it to be too serious at this point, but he’s going to have to miss a little bit of time.” New Jersey recalled goalie Nico Daws from Utica of the American Hockey League on Wednesday ahead of their home opener against the Florida Panthers on Thursday (7 p.m. ET; SCRIPPS, MSGSN). Forward Zack MacEwen (upper body) was placed on injured reserve.
Detroit Red Wings
Lucas Raymond did not play in a 4-1 win against the Panthers on Wednesday because of an upper-body injury. He is day to day. The forward originally left a 3-2 win at the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday in the second period following a hit from Maple Leafs defenseman Chris Tanev.
