New Jersey Devils head coach Sheldon Keefe said on Wednesday that captain Nico Hischier is week-to-week with an undisclosed injury and the team will see how he feels next week.
Hischier was injured on Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens, skating only 14:09 before departing the contest, a 4-3 overtime victory. He returned to New Jersey after for further evaluation, missing Monday's 4-2 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers.
