New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes (lower body) will not play against Ottawa on Saturday. He remains day-to-day and will miss at least one game after tweaking something in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over Nashville. This season, Hughes has compiled 12 goals, 36 points, and 127 shots on net across 36 appearances. Dawson Mercer is poised to center the top line in his absence, with Nico Hischier (illness) also a possibility.
